Do you treat ground pork exactly like ground beef? Do you just cook it the same way or is there a different technique?

I got like 8 lbs of it given to me so I need to make lots of things. What I really need to know is if I can just make it exactly like ground beef and still have it taste good. Like, I want to make tacos but I don't know if that would work.

it's greasier. i bet ground pork tacos would be great.

i think 'clams is right. the only difference in beef and pork is that pork is probably a bit more greasy. you can still do the same things with it, though.

I made sausage and cheese wontons yesterday for the 'perbowl. They were pretty gnarly.

You could dump a bunch of italian type seasonings in it and make meatballs and junk

they are good, make them just like you would a reg taco.

just thought of something new- take the ground pork and shape it into a shape of a pork chop. cook, enjoy.
