Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?

I'm not sure if the beef provides its own grease (I'm trying to make Hamburger Helper, I can't cook...)Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?
I would spray it with cooking spray.





If you have non-stick you won't need it.Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?
it depends on what kind of pan and ground beef you are using, nonstick pan use pan spray no matter what kind of beef it is


regular skillet - use a little olive oil it is better for you, if you don't have use veg. oil just a little


if you are using reg ground beef it should have enough fat in it, if using ground chuck or ground sirloin you will need a little oil


make sure after you cook the meat to drain it (do not pour down sink) before adding the other ingredients


lots of luck
I make Hamburger Helper all the time.You don't need anything. Not even in a regular pan. The fat from the meat cooks out and the meat will not stick, unless your hamburger is very low fat. While the hamburger is browning just stir and chop it up as it fries. Just follow the directions on the box and it will be fine.
Follow whatever it says on the box. However, I personally very seldom ever use oil. Pan spray is better when cooking meat. Don't use High temp. either or the meat will burn on the outside %26amp; be raw inside. If I must use oil, I use either olive or canola. Not near as many (if any) trans fats.
No, meat comes with enough grease! it doesn't matter if you have a non stick pan or not. No additional oil lis neededs. defrost your meat and cook until it is completely brown. If you are cooking it and the pan you use starts to smoke, the temperature is up to high.
No, you don't need to use oil, the beef has plenty of grease.





Make sure to drain the grease out the pot before you add the other ingredients in the box or it might come out slimy.
In a nonstick pan, you don't need any.





Any other pan, you can spray the pan with cooking spray or just use a small amount of oil. Maybe a tablespoon and spread it around the skillet with a spatula.
The beef will have enough fat. You will also need to drain the fat after the beef is fully cooked. Otherwise, the hamburger helper will taste terrible. Drain as much as possible before going to the next step.
No, the grease from the beef will be plenty enough. be sure to drain it off though. :) i %26lt;3 Hamburger helper just had some last night :D. hope you enjoy
I use peanut oil


a tsp just to coat the bottom
I would use beef broth.
no! never! once meat starts to brown it releases oils
