I saw this link posted on another board to Amy Berger's blog, Tuit Nutrition, on gluconeogenesis, blood glucose rises, and glucagon after eating protein. It explains why BG often rise after a higher protein meal and why that is very different (slower and lower)than the BG spike people see after a higher carb meal. VERY well written.
It is aimed at everyone but it does address T1D and T2D BG reactions to a really big meat meal.
It is a long read but an excellent one!
