Beef Recipes

Old-fashioned stuffed cabbage rolls: ground beef and rice rolled in tender cabbage leaves and baked for 1 hour 30 minutes under foil in a tomato sauce with brown sugar and lemon. Golumpki, halupki, holubtsi, all the same good dish.

Old-fashioned American Sunday spaghetti: a thick ground beef meat sauce simmered an hour and a half with a teaspoon of sugar, then the noodles stirred right into the pot and left ten minutes with the lid on.

The classic Minnesota tater tot hotdish: seasoned ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, green beans and cheddar under a top of frozen tater tots standing in tight rows, baked until golden and bubbling. A 9x13 pan, 15 minutes of work, dinner for eight.

A big pot of Sunday stovetop beef chili: ground beef browned hard, spices toasted into the meat before any liquid, two hours on low, and the beans left to you. With the masa trick that thickens it and makes it taste right.

Homemade sloppy joes from scratch in 25 minutes: ground beef with onion and green pepper in a sweet and tangy tomato sauce made from ketchup, brown sugar, mustard and Worcestershire, on toasted buns. It tastes like the can, only more. Cups and grams.

Homemade Salisbury steak in twenty minutes: seasoned ground beef patties browned in a skillet, then simmered in a mushroom and onion gravy that soaks into mashed potatoes. The from-scratch version of the TV dinner, in cups and grams.
