FAQ About Ground Beef

What ground beef is best for burgers?

The best ground beef to use when making burgers is 80/20 or 90/10 ground chuck, which is 80% lean meat and 20% fat. The more fat, the more flavorful and juicy the end result will be.

Can ground beef be refrozen?

Ground beef can be refrozen if it has been frozen once and thawed in the fridge. It is not recommended to do this more than one time.

What ground beef for tacos?

80/20 or 90/10 ground chuck is best when making tacos. The more fat, the more flavorful and juicy the end result will be.

What ground beef is best for meatloaf?

70/30 or 80/20 ground chuck is best when making meatloaf. An even leaner meat such as ground turkey, ground chicken or venison can even be used to make this dish. Too much grease can ruin meatloaf and flavor will not diminish when a leaner variety is used.

Why does ground beef turn brown?

Ground beef can turn brown when it has been exposed to air for an extended period of time, whether in the fridge or at room temperature. This does not necessarily mean the meat has gone bad, but can reduce the shelf life. Store ground beef properly in the fridge in airtight containers to reduce air exposure.

How To Add Flavor to Recipes

Flavor in any recipe is important, but what do you do if you find yourself with a bland dish that has already been cooked?

  • Check out this post for some tips about how to enhance the flavor in any type of food or dish!

  • Chicken broth or beef broth are great flavor-boosters, either in addition to or in place of water in the recipe.
  • At times recipes made with a super lean meat such as ground turkey or a lean ground beef can lack moisture and flavor, In this case, cook ground meat that has a higher fat content and add it to the recipe.
  • Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce!
  • Spice it up using red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper or diced jalapenos.
  • Any fresh ingredients such as herbs like fresh parsley or basil will enhance the flavor profile.
  • Top with cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese or any shredded cheese that melts well.
  • Add chopped green pepper, onion, green onions or carrots that have been sauteed in olive oil or vegetable oil.
  • Salt and black pepper are simple ways to boost flavor.
  • If you're looking for added crunch, green beans, asparagus or cauliflower will do the trick.
  • Heavy whipping cream added to creamy dishes adds a delicious texture and flavor.
