Categories     Ground Beef     Beef     Sunday Stash     Kid-Friendly     Small Plates

Yield Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
4 lb. ground beef chuck (20% fat)
4 tsp. kosher salt, divided

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over high. Add one-quarter (1 lb.) of the ground beef in an even layer, using your hands to break up large pieces and leaving some gaps to encourage browning (instead of steaming). Season with 1 tsp. salt. Cook, undisturbed, until bottom is deeply browned, about 3 minutes. Turn and break into smaller pieces and cook until the other side is browned, 2-3 minutes. Push over to one side of pot. Repeat with another one-quarter (1 lb.) of ground beef, seasoning uncooked meat with 1 tsp. salt. Using a wooden spatula or spoon, break meat into smaller pieces and stir to combine.
  • Season remaining 2 lb. beef with 2 tsp. salt, then add to pot and cook over medium heat, stirring often and breaking into small pieces, until all meat is cooked through and most (but not all) of the liquid is evaporated from bottom of pot, 12-15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Do Ahead:
  • Ground beef can be made 5 days ahead. Divide among airtight containers and chill, or freeze up to 3 months.

SEASONED GROUND BEEF AND DUMPLINGS WITH VEGGIES



Seasoned Ground Beef and Dumplings With Veggies image

Before going into a description of this recipe, I want to thank Chef #192264 for inspiring me with her Recipe #163278 recipe. If it wasn't for her, I would never be able to make dumplings.Now to go on with my description for this recipe.Sometimes you just want some other type of meat besides chicken with dumplings, so I came up with this. You could make the dumplings the drop type,but I suggest rolling the dough out. It makes for a more evenly cooked finished dumpling. If you try this I sure hope you enjoy it. :) Submitted to "ZAAR" on December 23, 2008.

BIG-BATCH SEASONED GROUND BEEF



Big-Batch Seasoned Ground Beef image

When cooking four pounds of ground beef, you're not going to get every little bit perfectly browned unless you work carefully in batches, potentially investing more time than a big-batch recipe merits. Instead, brown the first two pounds, then just stir in the rest-the rich flavor of deeply browned beef will meld into the whole batch. Stash it in smaller quantities in the freezer, then turn it into pasta sauce, casseroles, tacos, chili, and more in the weeks to come.

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
4 lb. ground beef chuck (20% fat)
4 tsp. kosher salt, divided

  • Preparation Heat oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over high. Add one-quarter (1 lb.) of the ground beef in an even layer, using your hands to break up large pieces and leaving some gaps to encourage browning (instead of steaming). Season with 1 tsp. salt.
