Calories in Hamburger 5% fat?

chetrog

I am counting calories and can't figure out how many calories there are in a 1/2 pound of hamburger "5% fat". And do I need to cook it then weight it, or is the calorie uncooked. Thanks for any info.

did you look up the brand in MFP database..??

what does package say?

I always weight first prior to cooking and use that ...

To find in the data base I typed Hamburger 5 - it came up. Weight should be uncooked.
The one I was looking at:
Beef - Ground, 95% lean meat / 5% fat, raw (hamburger)
