Hi Abby,
I let the beef defrost in the fridge and/or on the counter, since I usually freeze mine. After it's defrosted mostly, but still cold, I do exactly what you do. The only difference is, I use a metal spoon, rather than a spatula to break mine up. Sometimes, I even use my fingers to tell if it's broken up enough. I find it easier to break it up inot pieces while it's still cold and then to continue breaking it with the spoon, while it's cooking. I find that spoons work better for me than spatulas to cook almost everything. I can feel better with a metal spoon than I can a plastic spatula.
Hope this helps,
Dawnielle

Subject: [CnD] cooking ground beef

I use the leanest ground beef I can get for use in making spaghetti and
other dishes where you use cooked ground beef.  Well, you guys disappointed
me on pimento seeds and baked apples, but I haven't given up on you.



Here goes.  The ground beef comes in a shrink wrapped block, or sometimes a
tube.  I put the whole thing in a frying pan and try to break it up in
pieces with a spatula.  The problem is that the pieces aren't uniform in
size and aren't small enough.  So, the beef gets cooked unevenly.  How do
you accomplish this task?



Thanks,

Abby
