Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
Instructions
Method 1 (Refrigerator)
- Remove the beef from the freezer.
- Place a plate in the refrigerator with a kitchen towel on top of it.
- Lay the beef on top of the platter and towel.
- Allow to thaw in the fridge for 1-3 days before cooking (depending on size of the package)
Method 2 (cool water)
- Fill a large container with cool water.
- Wrap the beef in a plastic bag
- Lower the bag into the large container of cool water.
- Change the water every 30 minutes.
- beef will thaw at a rate of 1lb per 30 minutes.
Notes
- Plan ahead and place the burger into the fridge for about 1-3 days before you plan to use it.
- Be SURE to put a plate or towel beneath the beef to collect any dripping juices as it thaws in the refrigerator.
- Use the cool water method if you will need the ham more quickly.
- Use a VERY CLEAN cooler, sink or a plastic tub for thawing the burger with the cool water method.
