To bake 2 pounds of ground beef, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the ground beef in a baking dish and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Make sure to break it up and stir occasionally for even cooking. Always check the meat with a meat thermometer to ensure it is fully cooked.
