How many grams of protein are in 100g of cooked beef?

Cooked Pasture-Raised Beef contains between 26.0g (80/20 Ground Beef) and 31.5g (Top Sirloin) of protein per 100g.

Why is 100g the global standard for nutritional comparison?

100 grams provides an exact percentage representation of macronutrient density, allowing direct comparison across global food databases.

How much leucine is in 100g of pasture-raised beef?

One hundred grams of cooked Pasture-Raised Beef provides approximately 2.68g of pure L-leucine, nearly reaching the single-meal mTORC1 threshold alone.

How much raw meat must I weigh to get 100g of cooked meat?

Due to typical 25% moisture and fat loss during cooking, you need to weigh approximately 133g of raw meat (100g ÷ 0.75) to yield 100g of plated cooked meat.

Which cooked animal meat has the highest protein concentration per 100g?

Skinless cooked pasture-raised chicken breast (32.5g/100g), cooked elk/bison (33.0g/100g), and cooked lean top sirloin (31.5g/100g) have the highest protein densities per 100 grams.

Does a higher fat percentage lower protein per 100g in meat?

Yes. Because lipids take up mass without contributing amino acids, an 80/20 grind contains ~19.5g raw protein per 100g, while a 90/10 grind contains ~21.5g and skinless breast contains ~24.0g.
