A grease straining and collecting device for straining and collecting grease from cooked meat, including cooked ground beef. The grease straining and collecting device includes a bowl-shaped strainer for holding cooked meat therein. The strainer has a plurality of spaced apart holes therethrough to permit straining of grease from the meat out of the strainer. The strainer has a bottom and a perimeter side with an upper edge defining an open top of the strainer. The strainer has an outwardly radiating outer lip around the upper edge of the strainer. A collecting container is also included having a bottom wall and a perimeter side wall upwardly extending around the bottom wall of the collecting container. The perimeter side wall of the collecting container has an upper rim defining an open top of the collecting container. The strainer is inserted into the open top of the collecting container so that the outer lip of the strainer rests on the upper rim of the perimeter side wall of sad collecting container. The perimeter side wall of the collection container has a spout.
