Multiply 220 by 4 for a pound of fresh never frozen ground beef. This source does come is free growth hormones but it is still is my preferred fast food Keto meal with a lot of mustard and regular coffee that is 25% half and half milk so three senior cups is 360 calories with a lot of protein. I am trying to hit 100+ grams of protein daily so this will give me about 50% in one meal. The mustard will add many types of plants to my diet.
This will be the calories after cooking the 100% beef patties. Salt and pepper is added in the kitchen.4 -

Mustard is just mustard seed with vinegar, sugar, salt and some spices. Certainly not a meaningful source of "many types of plants" in anyone's diet, even if you drown your burgers in it.
And to the OP: If I'm uncertain as to the fat percentage of my ground beef, I log it as 80% to err on the side of caution.5 -
Thank you all! I will ask at the farm next time we go. I do drain our burger once cooked also.0

Sounds like you may need to change your mustard source if what you listed is factual.

I don't know where you live, but in the U.S. the leafy green veg is referred to as mustard greens, not mustard, which typically means prepared mustard (ground mustard seed, vinegar, salt, spices) or sometimes just ground mustard seed. In any case, how does eating mustard greens add "many typest of plants" to your diet?2 -
I never heard of anyone rinsing cooked beef before. That's a new one.
USDA does a good job of categorizing ground beef, broiled, crumbles, raw, etc. So, if the fat is in the dish like chili or casserole, you have to go with raw. If you use the fat in the pan, like for gravy, same answer. If it is grilled broiled or otherwise removed from the rendered fat like on paper towels, etc., use the cooked numbers.1 -

The mustard you're getting at McDonald's is the generic yellow mustard with the ingredients I listed above. So, no, definitely NOT something that is adding "many types of plants" to your diet. It's mustard - a condiment - not a large leafy green salad. 3 -

This.
Mustard greens and the yellow mustard that comes in those little packets at McD's are not the same thing. Mustard greens are the leaves, commonly eaten sauteed - a vegetable.
Mustard comes from the ground seeds of the mustard plant - nothing green about them. Claiming that mustard is a beneficial source of many veggies makes about as much sense as saying that about ketchup - even if someone drowns their fries in it. 3 -
It gets extra fat off and keeps whatever you put it on from getting greasy. I don’t digest fat very well at all, so any extra fat I can eliminate makes my stomach much happier.
Wouldn't draining the ground beef on some paper towel and then patting it dry accomplish the same thing as actually washing it?2 -
No it's not the same just using paper towels,when I say rinse I mean for recipes cuz I just buy whatever is on sale so sometimes it's super greasy! I'd never however rinse a hamburger patty1

If you're claiming that yellow mustard counts as "many types of vegetables", do you also count grasping at straws as "vigorous exercise"?3 -

Do you own or have someone close to you that owns interest in McDonalds? This reads like a commercial/spam.5 -
Thanks. I have always written my own ad copy by reading as much as I can find. Below is a good example of copy that I read and use often.

A pound of ground beef, previously frozen or not, is 454 grams. And, it is about 2.5 calories per gram, give or take.1

I live in NZ, so all our beef is grass fed, it's still high calorie. We don't get turkey mince here (I've never seen it in shops) so I can't substitute even chicken mince can be tricky to find.
If you bulk it out with tinned lentils (the brown ones) it makes the mince go further and the recipe (per portion) come down in calories. You dont notice much difference in flavour0
