kitchen utensil for browning hamburger

music83lover2001

I am currently using a wood "spatula" kind of tool when I brown hamburger or cubes of chicken.  I would like to get something that is dishwasher safe and something that is easier to clean (and maybe less prone to deterioration, it was a wedding gift along with some other things from Walmart).  I found these two items, but have not seen them in person.  What would you recommend or use?

Personally I just use a wooden spoon when I brown hamburger.  It does the job.

I have something from pampered chef that has a pinwheel on the bottom that helps break up beef and sausage.  It's all plastic so it can go in the dishwasher.

Thanks for the link.  That is a unique utensil.  I will add that to my list of possibilities.

I use that pampered chef mix n' chop tool, too. It is great!

We bought this recently and it works really well.

I took a cue from Rachael Ray. She uses a metal potato masher. Works beautifully. Makes a unitasker multifunctional. It also mashes potatoes really well.

I use it too because it's safe for non stick cookware....and I think it's dishwasher safe...but since i don't have a dishwasher it's not super easy to clean (just because of the design)

I have the PC tool as well, and while I like it, I cannot just throw it into the dishwasher when I'm done with it to get it clean. With the design, bits of the meat do get stuck along the edge of each "blade" of the pinwheel, and I have to scrub those off before it goes into the dishwasher.

Maybe some non-stick cooking spray would help with that, but I haven't tried it yet.
