Ground Beef, Cooked

Ground Beef, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Cooked ground beef is a versatile source of protein derived from finely ground beef trimmings. The cooking process renders some of the fat, reducing the overall fat content compared to raw ground beef, though the final macronutrient profile varies significantly based on the lean-to-fat ratio (e.g., 80/20, 90/10). It is a staple ingredient in numerous dishes, including burgers, tacos, and pasta sauces, offering a readily available and relatively inexpensive source of animal protein.
