Browning is the process of partially cooking meat to help remove excessive fat and to give the meat a brown color and flavor via the Maillard reaction. Ground meat will frequently be browned prior to adding other ingredients and completing the cooking process. The process is commonly used when adding ground meat to casseroles or other prepackaged food products like Hamburger Helper, where the final cooking temperature will not be high enough to initiate the Maillard reaction.
