But the wife makes an awesome homemade chicken and dumplins and chicken enchiladas . RE: 10 lbs Of Hamburger, Ground Beef - rickymouse - 04-08-2022 We usually get about 95-100 pounds of ground beef when we have our half head of beef processed. We give about forty pounds of it away to the kids, grandkids, brother and his wife, and my nephew every year for Christmas with some steaks and a roast or two. We figure out that about a pound of ground beef average a week is a good amount to keep us going, along with a lot of steaks, roasts, soup bones, and so on so forth. So we do lots of different things with the ground beef, including making pasties, hamburgers, sloppy joes, meatloaf, Meatballs and gravy, and multiple things like spaghetti, lasagna, and other casseroles. The filet mignon usually goes to make beef stroganoff, and we get quite a few pkgs of sandwich steaks and some cube steaks too. So hamburger is not the only thing we make burger like sandwiches out of. I like taking out some of the hamburger fried with onions to put into a piece of folded buttered bread when I am cooking ground beef. I can't forget to mention we have tacos or taco salads at least once a month too, that uses a package of burger...two meals for the two of us.

It's not hard to make, and you'll use a bunch of ground beef. I hope I don't get tarred and feathered by our UK rogues, I forget which is cottage pie and which is shepherd's pie Ok first off let me say i know lots of folks don't like them, and i don't use them all the time. but one night i didn't want to peel potatoes so i went to the Piggly Wiggly and got a big box of Hungry Jack Instant potatoes, and while there thought damn i don't want to make the gravy either so i got two jars of Heinz Brown Garvey, and damn if it didn't turn out to be the best i ever made. so here it is, 1 1/2 lbs ground beef 70/30, again cause fat where it's at 1 27 oz box Hungry Jack Instant Potatoes, I use the whole box because I make 2 layers one on bottom one on top 1 12 oz bag frozen mixed vegetables not the ones for soup with tomatoes that will just mess it up, or another short cut use 16 oz cans. 1 jar heinz brown gravy, might want to get 2 so you can add a little at a time in case it's not enough gravy for you, i like the filling to be kinda thick and not real runny. if you wanted you could use packaged brown gravey but that doesn't taste quite as good as homemade or the jar short cut. 1 med sweet onion 1 lb mild cheddar cheese salt pepper garlic powder, I love it, and cook just everything with that shit. vegetables, cook per package or until desired tenderness, if caned wait until time to combine filling mixture filling, chop up the whole onion, lightly salt and pepper, statue in butter until about half cooked, then add ground beef again lightly salt and pepper brown it and drain. if you make homemade gravy do so now or package. now with gravy to the thickness you like and vegetable of choice combine with the cooked ground beef and let simmer about 5 mins. for the potatoes, as i said i do two layers so i use the whole box, but instead of following the package instructions i cut the water and milk just a tad so the potatoes are stiffer easier to work with later. if you don't want one on the bottom, i'd do 1 and a half of the 12 serving and instructions. and cut the milk and water for a whole box it says 11 and1/2 cups water, i use 10 and 1/2, milk it says 5 2/3, i use 4 and 1/2, use the same amount of salt and butter i also add garlic powder here, if i had to guess amount i'd say about 2 1/2 tbsp, like i said i eyeball when i cook and can tell when it's on top of the water if i've got enough or to much. bring to a boil, now here it says to add milk and potato flakes, i found out if your milk is cold your taters will be to. that's not good for the next step. so what i do if i forget to pour it up before i start cooking is pour in the milk and let it heat up until just before a boil. then i add flakes and 1/3 to 1/2 of the cheese most time it's in between that stir real well until cheese has melted. now in my same 3 qt casserole dish i do the stuffed peppers in, i take half of the potatoes and make a even layer on the bottom, then pour in the filling then i put on the top layer, for this i take 2 pieces of parchment paper cut to just past the edges of the dish the other half of potatoes and use a roller to roll out till it is just past where the edges of the dish are, sometimes this is tricky cause the potatoes want to stick to the paper. if you did it right layers will be about 1/2 inch thick if that much. then pinch the edges of the potatoes over so that form a seal around the edges of the dish, then cover with the top with the amount of cheese you want. then in a preheated 400 degrees oven bake for 20 to 30 mins, watch so the cheese doesn't burn. let stand for about ten minutes.

This is some good shit, although where she mentions "Tony Cachere's" Cajun seasoning, we generally keep "Slap Ya Mama" on hand, because I put that shit on EVERYTHING! I'm not above seasoning a bologna sandwich with it. Or soups. Or salads. Or anything else that crosses my gums. Did I mention that I put that shit on EVERYTHING? And it adds necessary salt, a lot like bullion cubes do. . RE: 10 lbs Of Hamburger, Ground Beef - Ninurta - 04-08-2022 (04-07-2022, 11:09 PM)Grace Wrote: Sloppy Joe Pie This too.

Ever try any of the Ghost or Scorpion pepper stuff? I love the stuff, but it'll even light me up pretty good if I get too much of it. A little goes a really LONG way! Slap yo' Mamma is some pretty good stuff too. Had a buddy let me try some of his 'Da' Bomb; the Final Answer' a while back. Holy Cow! That stuff'll make you see things that ain't there it's so damn hot! I don't think they can even call that stuff "sauce" legally. I think they have to call it a "food additive" instead, else it's illegal it's so damn hot. I didn't care for that too much. They say the Ghost and Scorpion peppers are hotter, but mine two years ago were delicious. They were hot alright, but nothin' that'd make me cry like a little school girl (like that 'Da Bomb' stuff did). Still kinda' need an "Exit Strategy" though. Ice cubes and a fire extinguisher help.

Cottage Pie.... use Beef.... just because! LOL (*All pies that are topped with potato could be referred to as cottage pies, because back in the day... poor people who generally lived in small "cottages" used a LOT of cheap potatoes to fill out their pies and other dishes, hence the term "Cottage Pie" to mean any pie that was topped with cheap potato. But in modern times, the only really popular Cottage pie to survive has been the ground beef (mince) filled one. Now known simply as Cottage Pie.)

I think because the ones sold in the grocery store here are labeled Shepherds Pie and they are made with beef. Cottage Pie is one of my favorites. It’s perfect for when it’s cold outside or when I’m feeling a little sad or just because lol. I think I know what I’m making for supper tonight. I’ve also got my eye on that Southern Goulash recipe that @"Grace" posted. I’m so glad you started this thread @"kdog".

I'm not above seasoning a bologna sandwich with it. Da Bomb makes several 'sauces', and I couldn't tell on this one (maybe I didn't watch enough of it) if it was 'The Final Answer' variation, or just regular 'Da Bomb'. I've had the regular stuff before and it's pretty lively, but that 'Final Answer' stuff is just off the charts HOT!! It's like tasting liquid molten steel!! I can take it pretty hot, but that shit was just way out of bounds for me. Different sauces affect people differently, and one sauce which is hot for one person won't be hot for another, but in this case pretty much all the chili-heads in the room who tried it agreed it was about as hot as the surface of the freaking SUN! That 'Final Answer' stuff is HOT, HOT...HOT!!! It's like a thermonuclear reaction going off inside your head! ETA - I've tried some other ones which claim to be hotter, but I have yet to find something which will light me up like that stuff did.

I LOVE a good cottage pie, but I think I slightly prefer a Shepherds pie with the lamb.... GREAT comfort food for those cold evenings in early spring. I too like the sound of that goulash! (I'm actually having a home made lamb hot-pot tonight! No recipe... I just put whatever veg I have handy, in with the lamb, stock/gravy and herbs/seasoning... it's bubbling away, about 8 feet from me now... and it's nearly ready and smelling fantastic!) baaah G RE: 10 lbs Of Hamburger, Ground Beef - Snarl - 04-08-2022 (04-08-2022, 05:04 PM)FlyingClayDisk Wrote: I don't know one from the other.

It seems like I've eaten something with ghost peppers in it, but I don't recall what it was. I've never dealt with scorpion peppers as far as I know. a few years back, Grace got me a can of harissa. It's a paste made out of hot peppers and God only knows what other kinds of poisons. That stuff lit me up proper! Just a little dab of it'll do ya. One teaspoon spread over two burritos would bring tears to my eyes. I don't know what kind of peppers those Moroccans that made it used, but they need to be registered with the Atomic Energy Commission. a couple years ago my son sent me a couple of bottles of mead flavored with Carolina Reaper peppers. Those have a little smoke to them, too. Taos Lighting had nothing on that mead! .
