How to Make Ground Beef Microwave
If you don’t have a meat thermometer, you’ll want to use your senses. Look for a texture change, as ground beef will reach an internal temperature of approximately 160°F. You should be able to hear the sizzling from the beef, and the beef should be soft and not spring back to the touch. Let the meat rest for about 5 minutes after cooking. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making the meat juicier and easier to eat. Next, check the internal temperature of the ground beef. Place a meat thermometer in the center of the beef to determine the temperature. If the temperature is below 140°F, add an additional 10-15 minutes. If the temperature is between 140°F and 145°F, leave the beef alone for about 10 minutes, and then check the temperature again. If the temperature is above 145°F, cook the beef for 5 to 10 minutes more to make it safe to eat.
How to Defrost Beef
Many ground beef packages are sold at stores already defrosted. To defrost ground beef, place it in a paper towel-lined microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium power for 3 to 4 minutes, or until thawed. Alternatively, you can thaw ground beef in a refrigerator. Remove the meat from the container and drain the grease from the bottom. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. Take off the rest of the fat by pulling it off with a paper towel.
How To Cut Into Microwaved Beef
It’s never a good idea to microwave meat directly. The heat is much too high, and the meat will become dry and tough. A better method is to cut the meat into smaller pieces and then defrost it. This will keep the meat moist, and make it easier to cook.
