how many cups is in a quart and how long do i cook beef and noodles?

Answer 1

Well, there are 4 cups in a quart...i would need more info on what type of beef and noodles you'd like to make to answer that part of your question.

Answer 2

4 cups = 1 quart

For noodles: Bring salted water to a rolling boil, dump noodles in, reduce heat and simmer until the noodles reach the firmness you desire. Stir the noodles throughout this process in order to prevent the noodles from sticking at the bottom.

For beef...this all depends on what type of beef.

Ground beef needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F for 15 seconds to kill any critters that might cause foodbourne illness. (Nobody wants an e coli 0157 H7 burger!)

A steak depends on how you want it cooked...

Rare = 120-125 F
Med Rare = 130-135 F
Medium = 140-145 F
Med Well = 150-155 F
Well = 160-burnt to a crisp

A large cut of meat like a pot roast:
Throw it in a crock pot or a covered baking dish with about a cup of water put the pot or oven on low (225 F) and let it cook all day.

I'll leave BBQing to another post....

Hope that helps :o)

Answer 3

If you're making Ramen or any type of instant noodle, boil your water first, and add the noodle for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

And 1 quart is 4 cups.

Answer 4

1 qt.= 2 pts.= 4c = 32 oz.

You have to brown and drain the beef while you are cooking your noodles. Add whatever seasongs and liquid you are going to use ( soup or canned tomatoes or whatever) to the beef and simmer for around 10 minutes. Cook and drain the noodles, mix with the beef mixture, pour into a casserole dish, top with cheese if you like and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Answer 5

My favorite way to cook beef (pieces, not ground beef) is to flour it and put it in a medium-hot pan (about halfway up the numbers on the stove -- around 5 or so) with a very little bit of oil (or I sometimes use no-stick pan spray.) When it's all nicely browned, I carefully add a little warm water. It sizzles and steams, then it settles down. Add more water so the meat is covered. Turn the heat down a number or two and let the beef simmer awhile. Let it take its own sweet time. Check on it and stir it a little every few minutes. As it cooks down, it makes a lovely gravy.

When the gravy has thickened up nicely, and the meat is tender, put a pot of noodles on to boil. Boil until tender and then drain off all the water. Stir in a small slice of butter or margarine so they don't stick to each other in the serving bowl. You can serve the beef and gravy in a separate bowl or serve everything together in one.


If you need to make ground beef and noodles, put a few slices of onion and green peppers into a warm pan that's been sprayed with no-stick pan spray. Let them start to cook a little then add your ground beef. Turn the heat up alittle and stir the meat often. When it's all nicely browned and in small pieces, drain off the grease. Sprinkle a packet of brown gravy mix (dry) oevr the meat. Add a little water and stir well over medium heat. This'll make a pretty sauce. If you like, stir in a can of diced tomatoes or of plain tomato sauce or paste (not seasoned spaghetti sauce.)

Answer 6

cook in enough water to cover the noodles and cook until the niidles are soft
