Watery stuffed peppers

I noticed somewhere someone posted about watery stuffed peppers. I discovered what caused this by accident. It is the ground beef. I also had this problem until I started grinding my own beef because of the "pink slime". I made stuffed peppers with my home ground beef and guess what...they weren't watery anymore! They must be adding water to the store ground beef. It puzzled me because I'm 66 years old and never had that problem years ago. Good stuffed peppers once more :banana:

Good to know. I'll pass it on. Personally I'm not a stuffed pepper fan but know many who are!

Wow, that's interesting.
I gave up making stuffed peppers years ago because they got too dry. I just buy them now. Nobody makes a stuffed pepper as good as Stouffer's!
I love stuffed peppers! But I cook the ground beef first and use the 85/20 - not chuck. Then I mix it with the rice and stuff into the peppers and popur a little tomatoe sauce on top, and shredded cheese. Then bake in a 350 degree oven - convection if you hae so it browns a little on top. Then cover with foil, turn off convection and cook until warm through. Not watery and simply delicious...gee, now I'm hungry for stuffed peppers! :lol:

Go figure, I love broiled peppers especially on skewers with onion, tomato and meat; lamb or beef. Even if the meat is missing I love broiled peppers, but bake them and I rebel.
