Big Batch Beef: Cook ground beef in Dutch oven over medium-high heat for 9 to 10 minutes, breaking
into small chunks with back of spoon, until browned and completely cooked. Drain and return to pot. Add
onion and garlic. Simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until vegetables are softened. Spread mixture in a single layer
on several foil or parchment paper-lined baking trays. F reeze just until meat is firm, about 1 hour. Loosen
beef mixture into chunks. Scoop meal-sized portions into freezer bags. Freeze for up to 3 months.
