How people cook with it
Ground beef is a foundation for countless recipes, from comforting classics to quick weeknight meals.
- Burgers
- Tacos
- Meatloaf
- Pasta sauces
To cook ground beef, begin by breaking it up in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir and crumble it as it browns to ensure even cooking. Once it is fully browned and no pink remains, drain off any excess fat. You can then add seasonings, vegetables, or sauces directly to the skillet to build your dish. It is important to cook ground beef thoroughly before consuming it. The texture and flavor develop as it cooks, making it adaptable to various culinary styles.
How it differs from similar foods
Ground beef can differ in its lean-to-fat ratio. A higher fat content, like 80/20, will yield a richer flavor and juicier result, while leaner options, such as 90/10, will produce less fat during cooking and a firmer texture. This variation impacts how it holds together in formed items like patties.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused ground beef in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap. Keep it refrigerated and use it within one to two days for optimal freshness. For longer storage, ground beef can be frozen.
