How to Cook Beef for Dogs

It's no surprise to anyone that dogs love the taste of beef.

If you wish to cook a homemade dinner for your dog using beef, the only thing you really have to make sure of is that the beef is lean and that it is cooked thoroughly. There are also a few things you can add to your beef dinner that will make it heartier while adding valuable nutritional qualities at the same time. Brown rice is a healthy source of grain for the dog, and using fresh vegetables will complement the taste of the beef as well as add vitamins and minerals.

Things You'll Need

• 8 oz. lean ground beef
• Skillet
• Plate
• Paper towels
• 1/4 cup cooked brown rice
• Large bowl
• 1 potato
• 1/4 cup fresh green beans
• Medium saucepan
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions

1. Place 8 oz. of lean ground beef into a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until there is no pink remaining. Once it has finished cooking, drain all the excess fat from the ground beef by pouring it on a plate lined with paper towels.

2. Pour the drained ground beef to a large bowl and add 1/4 cup of already cooked brown rice.

3. Cut a potato into very small cubes and put in a medium saucepan. Add 1/4 cup of chopped fresh green beans. Add enough water to cover the vegetables by 1 inch.

4. Bring the water to a boil and allow the vegetables to become cooked through. Drain the vegetables and mix them into the bowl, along with 1/2 tsp. of garlic powder. Mix thoroughly.

5. Allow the homemade beef dog food to cool completely before serving. You have 2 servings in your bowl.
