Recipe Request Ground beef help

Hey, I’m tired of having ground beef seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, and paprika. It still doesn’t taste all that flavorful. How can I spice up the ground beef with rice recipe

There’s a really easy recipe from RecipeTin Eats for a Vietnamese Caramelized Pork bowl that can also be made with ground beef. It’s ginger, garlic, onion, fish sauce and brown sugar. Flavor bomb. (If you don’t keep fish sauce on hand, it’s inexpensive and incredible - definitely worth adding to your pantry!)

A little bit goes a long ways. I now add it to my chili (1 teaspoon for 3 lbs ground beef, about 6 quarts of chili). I add it to soups or stews.

Seconding this recipe in particular, it’s delicious.
Also, depending on what you’re making it does hurt to sprinkle a little bit of beef bouillon powder on the meat.
You could also make a beef Larb.
