All Purpose Ground Beef

Ingredients

• 5 lbs Ground beef
• 1 tbsp salt
• 2 cups Celery chopped
• 2 cups Onion chopped
• 1 cup Green Pepper diced

Instructions

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown ground beef over medium high heat, stirring to break up meat. Drain; discard drippings. Stir in salt, celery, onions, and green peppers. Cover; simmer over low heat until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; cool on a rack. Ladle into six 2 cup freezer containers with tight fitting lids, leaving 1/2 inch air space at top of each. Cut through mixture in each container with knife several times to remove air pockets. Attach lids, label containers with date, and contents. Store in freezer and use within 3 months.
