>>21503073
ok sorry

lmao this nigga eating straight ground beef. at least turn it into meatballs or hamburger helper or something.

add some mirepoix, some tomato sauce and make pasta.

>>21503067 (OP)
Here's how I make ground beef. Usually for spaghetti. Dutch oven or Saucepan, get it hot so the oil is shimmering. Add the beef and don't touch it for 30s. Then start breaking it down as finely as possible, can take a while. Keep the heat high as you break it down further and further into a pebbly texture. The beef should brown almost all over. Scrape the bottom of the pan every now and then. Then I add red wine to get the stuck parts off the bottom. Then add any herbs + spices and mix. You could skip the red wine if you wanted to use beef broth instead. Add spices/herbs and let it simmer until the liquid is almost completely gone. Done.

>>21503078
fuck that faggot,

What you should do is make it into a paddy and sear it for some nice crispy texture.

Does it have to be lean, are you on a diet?

>>21503103
Alright i'm going to try it another day

no im not in a diet, i just found this grass-fed gound beef in my freezer so i was like why not try to cook it

>>21503095
okay so might have to buy all of these lol, probably going to try it soon.

thank you btw

>>21503093
i might try it tomorrow

>>21503067 (OP)
Why would you make ground beef alone, without any sort of plan of what you would be using it for? Are you a dog? Cause you made dog food.

You could have made
Burgers
Spaghetti with meat/tomato sauce
Dumplings / Meat pie
Shepherd's Pie
etc
etc

Now you have wasted that shit.

>>21503113
more fat = more juicy. better crust and better taste.

I buy half pork half beef and just make 2 giant paddies, put some kind of animal fat in the pan and sear. It develops a good crust and seals the juices.

>>21503124
i know
i might do it tmr
no i eat it all

Also should I do this on the same pan or Stainless Steel is better?

>>21503148
Stainless steel is better, better crust and sear. But you must know how to use it

>>21503150
I kinda know, I did some eggs on it for breakfast and it was good

>>21503067 (OP)
>> Paprika
Paprika is a meme and is only used to add color. Only cooklets use it. Also use real garlic instead of powdered bullshit.

>>21503234
Alright, i'll do it next time

>>21503124
You don't get to have an opinion when you post that child molester fetish art, SHITBAG.

Post disregarded.

>>21503067 (OP)
add onions and green peppers, then a melting cheese at the end. eat it in bread or a wrap. cheapskate cheese steak.

Do you give a fuck? Do you ACTUALLY give a fuck about what you eat? Answer honestly. If no, go ahead and keep making uneven, undercooked, inedible bullshit that will kill you

>>21503246
yes that's why im asking tips

>>21503067 (OP)
grim
>>21503069
holy fuck that is grim

>>21503067 (OP)
a good herb to add to ground beef is dried thyme. like a pinch of it, not too much

>>21503239
Don't you dare compare Evangelion with the other weeb shit, mongrel.

>>21503341
>a good herb to add to ground beef is dried thyme. like a pinch of it, not too much
The best herb to add to a ground beef patty is marijuana, in distillate form. 500mg

So what I should do next is

> Do a meal like spaghetti/burgers
While cooking the ground beef
> Put it in a stainless steel pan
> A few tbps of virgin olive oil
> Add salt, black pepper, garlic & a pinch of dried thyme

>>21503245
ooh might be interesting do to this, should I do it as a patty burger?

>>21503073
paprika is good fucktard. even dollar store paprika is good if used 2 tablespoons per cup of liquid in a sauce.

>>21503124
Look at this weak little sissy who can't eat meat without burying it in bread or sauce. There's nothing wrong with a bowl of ground beef. $20 says you're overweight

>>21503416
>bowl of half burnt ground beef with no seasoning is good, actually
Mongrel animal.
I am not overweight.

>>21503423
Ah so you're just a spoiled bitch then, too good for a bowl of meat. I bet you can't even eat broccoli or carrots without slathering it in brightly colored filth

>>21503396
yes and add some chopped onions if you have any

>>21503238
don't listen to him about paprika, he's probably using the cheap shit that's made from bell peppers. he's probably not using enough of it either

>>21503677
How many tsp do you recommend tho?

>>21503744
about tree fitty

I agree with paprikafags, but you need the good stuff to get any real flavor. Other than that, finely chopped yellow onion, tomato paste, mushrooms if that's your thing. That's really all you need to make decent ground beef

>>21503067 (OP)
Look up "Beef Larb" and make whatever recipe you like best. Its such a nice hot weather dish and really adds a SE Asian vibe to your usual rotation for ground beef.

Alternatively, you could cook the beef, strain it, and cook the oil with garlic, peppers, or any of your favorite aromatics and use that, as well as the beef, to top a cheap instant ramen.

>>21503069
I'll assume this picture is just dark. You still want to cook it at a lower temp so that you have time to stir it to cook it more evenly and aren't burning parts while others are still raw. Use a lid when not stirring.
Your biggest problem is expecting a better result from just ground beef. Use it for spaghetti or fajitas or tacos or anything.

Also which type of oils/fats should i get?

like virgin olive oil, avocado oil, beef tallow and more

>>21503766
alright might interesting thanks

>>21503768
yeah sorry for the picture being very dark next time i'll try to take a better pic
Next time i'll try to do spaghetti

>>21503775
You should just add a can of tomato sauce to the ground beef for spaghetti. Anything more is extraneous and you can experiment later. Other anon went through long explanation and forgot the main ingredient.

just ask chat gpt.

>>21503789
I don't fw chatgpt.

>>21503423
>>21503431
This, there’s actually a fucking lot wrong with just a bowl of ground beef lol. Are you too fucking lazy/too poor at planning to chop some scallions, stick some rice in a rice cooker, roast some sesame seeds, and throw them all together and finish the dish with some sriracha mayo? Like fuck, even when I was justtttt learning to cook that was too simple

>>21503798
>ebonics

>>21503349
DUDE

>>21503067 (OP)
Try this:
300g ground beef (I used chicken)
300-400g diced taters
Corn, peas, paprika (frozen)
2 dl of 15% cream
Red curry paste

Brown ground beef and add spices
Add 'taters and some water (don't nees to cover, the steam will boil them)
Add veggies
Boil untill almost all water is gone (15-20 min)
Turn off range add cream and curry paste, stir well.
Let sit for 10-15 min

Serve with fresh salad.

>>21503798
monkey

>>21504096
Why waste time with these distractions when you could just eat the meat. Maybe have a bowl of broccoli on the side, but anything else is unnecessary.

>>21504268
are you woman?

>>21504628
A bowl of broccoli and a bowl of fucking ground beef

Are you fucking serious

>will eat a plain steak and act like it's the greatest thing in the world
>but you can't eat ground beef by itself
they don't have an answer for this

>>21504992
Ground beef is always lower quality meat, not as pleasing and flavorful as a good steak.

The cooking process will also be uneven if you just straight up cook it by itself like that, as a shapeless blob. (As opposed to cooking it as hamburger patties, cooking it in a stir fry, etc.)

Do you also eat ramen noodles alone and without the flavoring packet? Spaghetti without sauce? Pizza bread without toppings?

>>21504982
I eat that exact meal 1-3 times a week. What's your problem fat boy

>>21505003
you're comparing plain, empty carbs to delicious fatty protein packed meat. again, you don't have an answer.

>>21504952
Maybe~

>>21505064
>ignores the first and second paragraphs
You lose.

>>21505122
when i cook ground beef it's delicious. maybe you don't know how to cook?

>>21505129
>ground beef alone and without any type of seasoning
>delicious

>>21503067 (OP)
just add some salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, and paprika. Cook down some onions as well and toss them in, add a can of the rotel mild diced tomatoes and green chilis (or whatever heat you want you want). Send it off into a cooked tortilla, put some cheese on top of tortilla, add the meat on top and you have primo tacos for cheap and easy. You can also just toss it into a bowl with some salad and have a decent and easy meal.

>>21503069
some of it still looks raw

>>21503744
>tsp
No. Use at least 1 tablespoon for every serving of meat you have, but 1.5 tablespoons is better. A quick trick is that one serving of meat is roughly the size of the palm of your hand, digits not included.

>>21503769
-virgin olive oil for salad dressings, bread, and low-temp cooking (it has a low burning temperature. use it like you would use butter. mixing it with butter is very tasty too, and raises butter's smoke point slightly so it doesn't burn as fast)
-peanut oil for high temp frying
-beef tallow if it's in your price range for a mid-temp fat with good flavor
-lard as an alternative to peanut oil if you're allergic

good luck on your meat cooking journey
