Expert Tip
Don't overcook ground pork-aim for an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) to keep it juicy and tender.
And for extra flavor, try browning it in batches instead of all at once. This helps it caramelize instead of steaming, which adds way more depth to your dish!
Julia's Note: I always season ground pork a little early while it's browning-salt, pepper, and garlic powder go a long way!
