Cooking Guidelines
To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:
- Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
- Seafood 145° F |
- Chicken 165° F |
- Ground Beef 160° F |

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Drain beans in a colander/strainer.
Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping. -
2 Cook the Beef Mixture
Place a medium pot over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.
Add ground beef, chile and cumin rub, white portions of green onions, poblanos (use less if spice-averse), and garlic salt to hot pot. Break up meat until no pink remains, vegetables are tender, and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 5-7 minutes. -
3 Add the Tomatoes
Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir tomatoes, beans, and 1 1/2 cups water into hot pot until combined. Bring to a simmer.
Once simmering, cover and stir occasionally until slightly thickened, 15-20 minutes.Remove from burner. -
4 Add the Cheese
Stir in hot sauce (to taste), cream cheese, and half the shredded cheese (reserve remaining for garnish) until melted and combined.
