For my entire life I've been breaking up my ground beef the old fashioned way, with a spatula. Just go to town on that ground beef and take your aggressions out but it's time consuming and hard on your arm if you're doing a lot. I will sometimes use a potato mashed if I'm using a stainless or cast iron pan but can't do that with my nonstick.I saw this gizmo on a cooking show and wondered if it worked as well as it seemed to. I did a little research and it was all positive so I ordered one. How in the heck did I go all these years without one of these??? Holy Guacamole Batman...this thing breaks up ground beef or sausage like a magic wand in comparison to the old fashioned way. It's not often I come across something I've never heard of and it actually works but here we are. You can use a normal straight up and down movement to break up the ground meat which works very well but where this thing really shines is going straight down and giving it a little twist at the end. Repeat as needed. It's very fast in comparison to the spatula method and it's pretty fun as well. I can't recommend this enough, it's inexpensive, fast and fun to use. Let's face it, breaking down ground meat isn't fun so anything you can do to make it faster, easier and more enjoyable is a win.I haven't used this for other things like mashed potatoes but I am looking forward to seeing how much of a multi-tasker it is. Even if it doesn't do anything else well it'll still be worth buying.

I love to use this to break up the ground beef. It’s so much easier than using a spoon. I even use this to break up chicken that has been cooked in a slow cooker. Useful tool for the kitchen. Inexpensive.

This thing looks dumb but it works like black magic on ground beef. Breaks it up faster than a spatula ever could. Nylon feels durable, not that floppy cheap plastic. Nice to have for ceramic pans or non stick so it doesn’t scratch as easily and get those PFAS all up in your stuff.

This nylon meat and potato masher has become a handy addition to my kitchen. I love that it’s heat-resistant and safe to use on my nonstick pans—no scratching at all. It works great for breaking up ground meat and mashing soft veggies like potatoes or sweet potatoes. The handle is comfortable to grip and it feels sturdy while in use. However, I did allow mine to rest on the side of my skillet and it did melt and the plastic leeched into my meat and I had to throw out my dish, but that was an operator error, I’m sure. If you don’t leave it on the heat, you won’t have my same problem. As far as functionality, it performs well and protects my cookware.
