20 Recipes for Ground Beef
If you have kids who like to be read stories, click here and let me read my new favorite children’s book to them!
As I’m bee-bopping around on this book tour of mine, I thought I’d bring you a few compilation posts from time to time. Today’s post is all about that good old family favorite: Ground Beef. Below you’ll find some of my personal favorite ground beef recipes and a list of just about every ground beef recipe on Southern Plate (I may have left one or two out but I think I got ‘em all in there).
I hope you enjoy these recipes and keep your eyes open for my next post, which will be sweet as honey! ~winks and grins~
Ground Beef Stew (with a secret!)
Hearty, filling, easy, economical, and bursting with flavor!
Made this the night I came home from the first week of touring. It hit the spot!
Ever feel like your family expects you to be a short order cook in the kitchen? You’ll love this recipe, then! Hobo packets are a snap to put together and easily customizable to suit everyone!
This was a favorite at our house when we were teens and is a favorite at my house any day!
Taco Soup – World’s Easiest Supper
Gotta love a recipe where you throw everything in a pot and come back to supper fifteen minutes later!

**THIS POST is how I process large quantities of ground beef. The post is pretty old but it still shows it just as well. I prefer to buy large quantities of ground beef and cook it all at once. I then freeze it to have cooked ground beef on hand anytime I need to whip up a quick meal. This is my #1 timesaver!

Thanks for compiling them all in one place for us!! Fantastic!! I have told my friends and family all about your amazing site/book:)
Hooray for ground beef! It is always so good and with so many ways to fix it I never get tired of it! I could eat ever dish listed! Thanks for sharing!
I still want to adopt flat christy for a weekend. We could make potato chip cookies!
This list is great. Money’s been a little tight for us, and I’m sure a lot of others. It’s great to see ways to make something as simple as ground beef make a lot of different, healthy and simple meals!
Smooches!

Thanks for the recipes, I especially like the pizza rolls, I make them up and keep them in the fridge and then all we have to do is heat them up in the microwave!
I caught myself giggling at you:
“Slow Cooker Meatloaf (A Flat Christy post) – I’m going to do more of these soon as I have time”
You’ll do more when you have more time to do more??? LOL! Doesn’t sound like that’s gonna happen soon. Are you taking your vitamins? Getting enough sleep? Eating right? I am your mamma’s helper (I can only be her helper, cause you sound like you got yourself a great mamma!) TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!
I agree with your number one timesaver – cooking up your ground beef and freezing for later. I’ve been doing that forever and it REALLY saves a lot of time!
I’ve been wondering where Flat Christy has been lately! We would love to have her come to visit! We love your deep dish pizza! All the other recipes sound great, too!
Looking forward to October 26th at Firewheel!!

I made hamburger/veggie soup today…you can see how I did it on today’s post.☺ I think next week I may do the Taco Soup.
Love Love Love all of the recipes Christy! I have to admit, your my favorite now! Congratulations on all of your recent cookbook signings. Your going to make it big!
your recipes are GREAT. But could someone help me out…I cant find the “PRINT” button. Guess Im getting OLD.
Let me know which recipe you can’t find it on and I’ll go check it. We just rolled that out recently and there are about 400 recipes on here so we might have missed one or two(we had to go into each recipe to do it).
Thanks!
Christy
Also if your having any health issues and doctor has limited beef intake you can substitute ground turkey in it’s place. Thanks Christy for all the recipes, you are a rare gem!!
That’s a great tip! I use ground turkey and ground beef mixed together. I go half and half as this saves money for those that are on a tight budget.
My daughter, Ashleigh and I were just talking about deep dish pizza yesterday and this morning (gentle, musical hallelujah’s) I see your recipe. Well, can’t you guess what’s for dinner tonite!! Love your recipes, love your great sense of humor and envy your energy with your family, blog and book tour. Blessings to you honey.
Hey Christy have you made Ratatouille? I’m kind of looking for a recipe on that I kind of want to try it.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve cooked your taco soup. I use petite diced tomatoes instead of Rot-ell though. Rot-ell was to spicy for me. lol.
Just found out about you today v ia The Today Show…what a find…your reciepes sound fabulous…so “YES I’ll make them” Yea for Southern girls..and I love your newsletter…..
I used to make Gound Beef Stew all to time. I for got about it so I think I will make some soon.
Thank you Christy! I know my lil’ sis is going to appreciate this, as her husband will only eat ground beef. She’s always looking for new recipes. I had completely forgotten about the hobo packets. My mom used to make those and cook them in the fireplace. Thanks for bringing back some great childhood memories which will start a new one with my family!
Thank you for this!! My dad just had a cow processed so we are overflowing with fresh ground beef! Love the fact that we know where it came from, and that it wasn’t pumped full of antibiotics and whatever all else, and is organic.
I’m going to Costco today and buying a big package of ground beef. I’ll be bookmarking this page for my dinner planning!
I hope you enjoy the recipes Megan. Let me know what all you make.

Thank you so much for posting this. We just bought a half-side of beef from a local farmer who is also a family friend. So I now have a freezer full of ground beef, roasts, and steaks. I was just thinking the other day that I needed to find some new ground beef recipes-I should have known that you would have a treasure trove of recipes!
If you ever have the opportunity, this is the most economical way to buy beef. Just make sure to have a freezer large enough to hold it all!
When I make meatloaf I put 2 slices of bread in bottom of loaf pan it will soak up grease from meat
