Heat the garlic-infused oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and no pink remains at the center, about 7–8 minutes. Tilt the pot and spoon off any excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon behind.
