Kroger Homestyle Beef Patties
What it is
These are pre-formed ground beef patties, designed for convenience in home cooking. They are made from beef and shaped into a uniform size and thickness, making them easy to handle and cook quickly. The homestyle designation suggests a focus on a traditional, straightforward beef flavor, without added seasonings or binders beyond what is typically found in quality ground beef. They offer a quick solution for weeknight meals.
How people cook with it
Beef patties are a versatile foundation for many quick and satisfying meals.
- Quick burgers
- Skillet meals
- Sandwich fillings
- Casserole additions
To cook, place the frozen or thawed patties in a preheated skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for several minutes per side, until browned and cooked through to your desired level of doneness. You can also grill them or bake them in the oven. For burgers, place them on buns with your favorite toppings. They can also be crumbled into sauces or used as a base for shepherd's pie.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to fresh ground beef, these patties offer pre-portioned convenience and consistent shape. They are typically leaner than some fresh ground beef options and are designed to hold their form during cooking, reducing shrinkage and mess. Their uniform thickness ensures even cooking.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
