I saw somewhere on here that weighing meats in grams raw is better than in ounces since it's more accurate. My question is, how many ounces of steak is 100 grams? The usda raw sirloin entry says it's 177 calories per 100 grams of raw sirloin but I have no idea how much that is in ounces. I'm going to weigh it in grams but in order to guess how much to eat, I have to think of it in ounces since I have a slight idea. Any clue?

    Google would have a converter.

    3.5 oz. For future reference, if you type "100 grams to ounces" in Google, it will do the conversion for you.

    :D I can't believe I didn't think of that, thank you!

    If you are weighing (or buying) it in ounces, then I'd probably use an entry in ounces.
    If you have a scale that lets you switch between ounces and grams then measure it in grams and use that.

    4 ounces is about 112-113 grams

    28.35 grams per ounce. 100/28.35 = 3.53
