Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer — We strongly recommend using a meat thermometer to keep a close eye on the cooking time. 
 
  • Mix it well — Although we stand against using ground turkey or ground pork instead of ground beef, you could mix it up. A mix of ground beef and ground chicken would enhance the flavor.
