Quickly, For People Who Have Ever Made Ground Beef

Now this might be a bit El Gamo for you all, but I have no idea how to cook. I'm semi living on my own, my mom bought me a bunch of meat from a butcher I guess under the assumption that I know how to cook. I have a bunch of ground beef, I want to make some of it. Problem: I don't know how. I've tried looking on the internet, but it seems that everyone thinks that you go into the recipe at least knowing how to cook the ground beef without actually giving you instructions for that part. I'm in a bit of a bind here, so please, someone tell me how to cook the ground beef until it's brown. I have sloppy joe mix, I want sloppy joes but I need to know how to at least do the most basic of thing cooking. What setting do I put the pan on is basically what I'm asking.

OK, I guess I should have googled how to "brown ground beef" before this because that was my answer.

This person is my savior right now. Now time for the real adventure. I regret ever making this thread now.

Cubed potato + ground beef + egg

Then you have omelet

stirfry the ground beef

Just buy Taco shell and tomato then you have tacos

Make a Sheperds Pie!!! Or else a simple Mince and onion with Mashed Potatoes all laced with gravy is good.

Minced beef is easy stuff to work with...internet is a great resource.

My mom makes Shepards pie, it's one of the few foods from the south that I really really like.

I Switched up from Ground beef to Ground Turkey a while back.After a while,It was all the same.The thing with Beef is how much you drain out the grease.Used to just mix light cheesed Macaroni,Ground beef,chopped onions & diced Creole Tomato's. Good stuff!:feedme:

just put the shit in a pan on med/high heat and cook it until it aint pink anymore. WTF could be easier? :confused: lol.

Amat, get yourself a general Betty Crocker cookbook. Trust me. you'll use it.

Put the left over un-used portion into individual zip locks for the next meal;)

Cheese onion,and sliced potato

I feel really really stupid for asking that. Was one of the easiest things I've ever made, really.

Nothing to feel stupid about - I'm not very good in the kitchen, either. I do make a mean bowl of cereal, though ;D

Oh piss off!! :rolleyes:;D

You are right, just as Trainer Monkey is. Sheperds Pie is commonly associated with lamb in the UK but can be interchangeable with beef. Certainly says so on my little satchets that I did indeed ship here from the UK anyway.

I could do with some minced lamb actually. You cannot buy lamb here because the Koreans think its "smelly". I guess dog is a worthy substitute! :-\

Just be careful to defrost it first. 2 years ago my dumb@ss pulled some ground beef out the freezer and threw it right on the skillet which was already hot and the ice hit the oil and it popped off and I got 2nd degree burns on my wrist and my side. Luckily if healed but it took 2 years.
