Begin by placing the ground beef in a substantial, deep skillet and cook it over medium-high heat while stirring constantly until it is uniformly browned. Remove the excess fat from the skillet and discard it. Then, add the taco seasoning blend as per the package's instructions for preparation. Allow this mixture to cool down before setting it aside.
