Anybody know how the calories stack up for unprocessed "real" beef (as in, NOT grocery store crap, but stuff from my friend's butchered cow?) I know it's way less greasy when I cook it.

The stuff at the grocery store isn't real beef??
What if I don't know anyone with a cow???0 -
I'm confused. I buy meat at the butcher too, but not sure how the calories would be any different from the beef I buy from Whole Foods/Trader Joes/any other grocery.0

If it's less greasy, it has less fat, which means it's probably just a better cut of meat than what you normally buy (ground chuck vs. filet mignon, for example).
The calories should be the same.0 -

All meat of every kind is processed. If it wasn't, the animals would kick you as you gnaw on them.0

Butchering is processing of the cow
And would depend on the cut that you're using and the grade of the beef0 -

As mentioned before...the cut of meat.
Also if it's hamburger....93/7, 85/15, 80/20, 73/270 -

The calories should be the same.
If it's got less fat and the cut is better, likely, the calories are NOT the same, as less fat usually means less calories (unless it's a product where sugar is added to compensate for taste.)0 -

The same cut from the grocery store is going to have the same calories as the same cut from his friend's cow. THAT was my point.0 -
If you eat some beef curtains I think that's a negative calorie treat.0

Thanks! I'm glad someone gets it. I'm not interested in mincing words about "real" or unreal, "processed or not (yes, to the poster who said butchering IS processing.) I think you all get my point. It's not got any additives, antibiotics, and a lot better quality than what is at the grocery store. I was just wondering if anyone who also eats this kind of meat would know how the calories in the ground meat stack up.0 -
Wow. How many calories do you log for being so full of yourself?0

It's ground. There is no "cut." Obviously there is lass fat though...is my point.0 -
If the meat from the shop isn't real does that not mean it has less calories? After all, if it's not real then it must be just a figment of my imagination.0
