I'm just curious how and if you can incorporate the onions after the beef has already been browned and frozen. Do you use this same frozen meat for recipes that call for ground beef with onions?

Never had the bright idea to use for recipes calling for cooked ground beef. I keep old plastic containers e.i. cool whip, margarine, ice cream and dispose of the drippings into the trash.

I "boil" my ground beef, then add tomatoes, vegetables and anything else I want to throw in. I usually cool in the refrigerator and then dip off the hardened fat. The flavor is the best! It makes it's own beef broth as it cooks the ground beef. Just the way my mama always did it! Christy, I have been making vegetable beef soup using this method all my life.

Like a ziplock bag? or do you have one of those fancy air-sucking out devices? How long can you leave it in the freezer before it gets funky? i LOVE your website and am ashamed it has taken me THIS long to look at it. One of my collegues suggested it when I was lamenting about how stressed my life is. thanks!!!! Meredith's Mom Christy–

I cook the same way with ground beef, and almost always use onions and garlic browned with the meat, so this is a great idea to pass on. We can all use time-saving ideas. Thanks for the tip!
