serving size of ground beef

I know a serving is 3 oz but when trying to figure out how much to put on my taco and it says 1/4 cup...Is it better just to scoop and weigh? Trying to figure a short cut so not dirtying up tons of things. Because 1/4 dry and 1/4 wet are two different things. I don't want to cheat on my calorie count.

I would just weigh out the 3 oz and then divide that up between the shells! I would weigh it wet that way you are probably actually eating less. The wet meat I'm sure weighs more! Never really thought about that one!
