Calories in Ground Beef by Lean Percent
Track this in NYUS. NYUS builds a workout plan and an Indian-food diet plan from your goal, body, schedule and food preferences.
Join the NYUS waitlist"Ground beef calories" depends on the lean percent on the pack (70% lean means 30% fat), on raw against cooked, and on how it was cooked. This guide gives forty-two records from the SR Legacy table of USDA FoodData Central: raw ground beef at 70, 75, 80, 90, 93, 95 and 97% lean, a grass-fed raw record, and cooked ground beef at 70 to 97% lean as a broiled patty, a pan-broiled patty, pan-browned crumbles and a baked loaf, plus frozen patties and an unspecified-fat cooked record, with the weights printed on their record pages. IFCT 2017, the Indian Food Composition Tables from ICMR-NIN, has beef rows by cut on our beef, pork and duck guide and no ground beef row. Other meat is in our mutton, lamb and goat guide, tacos and nachos in our taco, burrito and nachos guide, pasta dishes in our lasagna, spaghetti and macaroni guide and sandwiches in our sandwich, sub and wrap guide.
The short answer
By the SR Legacy records, raw 80% lean ground beef is 254 kcal per 100 g, a broiled 80% lean patty 270, 90% lean broiled 217 and 95% lean broiled 174; pan-browned 80% lean crumbles are 272 kcal per 100 g. A pound (453.6 g, our weight) of raw 80% lean is 1152.1 kcal and of raw 95% lean 621.4 kcal. Our reading: from 75% lean upward the kcal per 100 g do not rise with the lean percent within each cooking method (from 279 for the broiled 75% patty to 153 for the broiled 97% patty; the 70% records print slightly lower than the 75% ones), and at 90% lean and above the cooked rows are higher than the raw rows because water is lost, while at 70% and 75% lean they are lower than raw because fat is lost too, and at 80% lean they run from 246 to 272 against 254 raw; compare lean percent and cooked against raw, not the word beef.

SR Legacy: per printed portion
Each figure is our arithmetic on exact weights: kcal per 100 g times the grams, divided by 100, with the exact product in the sums line and the result shown to 0.1 with half rounding up. Every weight below is printed on the SR Legacy record page; none is ours. Pure ounce portions are not shown, so most of the 42 records have no row here and the weights tables below are used instead.

100 g, 250 g and 500 g of cooked ground beef
Shops and recipes use 250 g and 500 g, which these records do not print. These three weights are ours: each cell is the SR Legacy per 100 g figure times the grams, divided by 100, as kcal, protein and fat, shown to 0.1 with half rounding up. They are for cooked meat as in the record, not raw, and not for a curry or a gravy.

One pound of raw ground beef
A pound is how ground beef is often priced. The weight is ours (1 lb = 453.6 g), applied to the raw per 100 g figures: kcal, protein and fat, shown to 0.1 with half rounding up. Raw meat loses water and fat when cooked, so a pound of raw meat does not become a pound of cooked patties.

- Rows with no lean percent: grass-fed raw 168608 prints 198, frozen broiled patties 169447 print 295 and the unspecified fat content cooked record 172161 prints 240 kcal per 100 g; we show them as printed and do not adjust them.
Why these are reference rows, not your mince
- Names are the records'. No record name or portion label shown here carries a company name. The records are USDA's generic ground beef rows; we do not say that beef or buffalo mince bought in India matches them.
- Lean percent is the sample's. The 70 to 97% in the names is the lean to fat ratio of the USDA sample; mince sold in India usually does not state it, so the closest record is a guess.
- No curry or keema row. USDA has no beef curry, keema, kofta or kebab record. A curry adds oil, onion and masala, so the cooked meat rows here do not give a curry's calories.
- Overlap with our beef guide. Our beef, pork and duck guide prints IFCT raw beef shoulder, chops and round at 212, 140 and 157 kcal per 100 g and USDA raw 85% lean ground beef (171796) at 215; this page has USDA raw ground beef from 332 kcal per 100 g at 70% lean to 121 at 97% lean. They are different datasets and different meats, so the figures differ: use one source for a meal.
- Every portion here is printed, except the weights tables. The only weights that are ours are the labelled 100 g, 250 g, 500 g and 1 lb in the weights tables and the 100 g logging example.
- The records' own notes. The record pages mark the kcal energy of all 42 of the 42 records "Calculated"; they are USDA values, not our measurements.
How to log it so the numbers hold
- Weigh it, and say raw or cooked. 100 g of a broiled 80% lean patty (our example weight, not a dataset value) on SR Legacy 171797 is 270 × 100 / 100 = 270, so 270.0 kcal; 100 g of raw 80% lean is 254.
- Pick the lean percent and the method the record names. Patty, crumbles and loaf are different rows; the same weight of each gives different calories.
- Drained fat is not in the record. The records are for the cooked meat as eaten; if you pour off fat, we do not give a number for it.
- Curries and gravies are separate. Oil, ghee and sugar are in our ghee, oil and sugar guide.
- Do not mix datasets inside one day. If you log mince from SR Legacy, keep to that record for the same meal.
Where NYUS fits (our app)
We make NYUS, so read this as ours. NYUS is an AI fitness and nutrition coach in early access on Android, with no ads and no data selling. You log foods yourself by searching 8,900+ Indian and global foods or by barcode, and a weekly check-in adjusts your calories, macros and step goal once enough is logged. Barcode coverage of Indian packaged foods is not complete, so search by name when a scan finds nothing.
What this page leaves out
- A calorie target, and any claim about what beef does to your body: we have not looked up one for any person, so we give none. If you have a medical condition, ask your doctor or dietitian.
- Beef curry, keema, kebab, burgers and any restaurant or maker's version: no record used here. Burgers are in our pizza, burger and fries guide.
- Raw 85% lean ground beef (171796) is on our beef, pork and duck guide and is not repeated here.
- The "beef ground" search returned 47 records: 42 used, and these 5 are left out: company-named record 167657; restaurant or fast food dish 170292, 167658; Australian imported record 173068; named on a live NYUS guide 171796.
- The "beef ground patty" search returned 17 records: 17 used.
- The "beef ground crumbles" search returned 8 records: 8 used.
- Beef cuts other than ground beef are not covered on this page, and these searches are counted only, not listed: "beef steak" returned 396; "beef ribeye" returned 17; "beef tenderloin" returned 52; "beef top sirloin" returned 42; "beef brisket" returned 43; "beef round" returned 164; "beef chuck" returned 178; "beef loin" returned 152; "beef rib" returned 157; "beef retail" returned 25.
- Nutrients beyond energy, protein, fat and carbohydrate: not covered here.

The per portion figures, the weights tables, the sums, the rounding, the comparisons and every sentence starting "Our reading" are NYUS's own arithmetic or opinion, not from USDA. The SR Legacy values and portion weights are exactly as printed on the record pages. The names in the first column are the dataset's own record names.

How many calories are in 100 g of ground beef?
SR Legacy 174036 (Beef, ground, 80% lean meat / 20% fat, raw) prints 254 kcal, 17.2 g protein and 20 g fat per 100 g. SR Legacy 171797 (Beef, ground, 80% lean meat / 20% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 270 kcal, 25.8 g protein and 17.8 g fat per 100 g. SR Legacy 171799 (Beef, ground, 80% lean meat / 20% fat, crumbles, cooked, pan-browned) prints 272 kcal, 27 g protein and 17.4 g fat per 100 g. SR Legacy 174037 (Beef, ground, 75% lean meat / 25% fat, raw) prints 293 kcal, 15.8 g protein and 25 g fat per 100 g. Per 100 g, raw 80% lean ground beef is 254 kcal and the same lean percent cooked as a broiled patty is 270 kcal, because cooked meat has lost water.
How many calories are in lean ground beef (90%, 95%, 97% lean)?
SR Legacy 174031 (Beef, ground, 90% lean meat / 10% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 217 kcal, 26.1 g protein and 11.8 g fat per 100 g. SR Legacy 171791 (Beef, ground, 95% lean meat / 5% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 174 kcal, 26.3 g protein and 6.8 g fat per 100 g. SR Legacy 173112 (Beef, ground, 97% lean meat / 3% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 153 kcal, 26.4 g protein and 4.46 g fat per 100 g. Among these three broiled patties a higher lean percent has fewer kcal per 100 g.
How many calories are in a pound of raw ground beef?
By the SR Legacy raw records, one pound (453.6 g, our weight, not printed) is Beef, ground, 70% lean meat / 30% fat, raw (SR Legacy 168652) 1506.0 kcal; Beef, ground, 80% lean meat / 20% fat, raw (SR Legacy 174036) 1152.1 kcal; Beef, ground, 90% lean meat / 10% fat, raw (SR Legacy 174030) 798.3 kcal; Beef, ground, 95% lean meat / 5% fat, raw (SR Legacy 171790) 621.4 kcal. The full raw per pound table is on this page. Cooked patties weigh less than the raw meat they came from, so a pound of raw meat does not make a pound of cooked patties.
How many calories are in a ground beef patty?
SR Legacy 168651 (Beef, ground, 70% lean meat / 30% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 277 kcal per 100 g and lists 1 patty as 70 g, 193.9 kcal. SR Legacy 174032 (Beef, ground, 85% lean meat / 15% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 250 kcal per 100 g and lists 1 patty (yield from 1/4 lb raw meat) as 77 g, 192.5 kcal. SR Legacy 173112 (Beef, ground, 97% lean meat / 3% fat, patty, cooked, broiled) prints 153 kcal per 100 g and lists 1 patty as 70 g, 107.1 kcal.
How many calories are in cooked beef mince (keema)?
The records name the cooking method: broiled patty, pan-broiled patty, pan-browned crumbles (the closest to mince cooked loose) and baked loaf. Per 100 g at 80% lean they print 270 (broiled patty), 246 (pan-broiled patty), 272 (pan-browned crumbles) and 254 (baked loaf) kcal. There is no keema curry, kofta or kebab record: a curry adds oil, onion and masala.
Is cooked ground beef higher in calories per 100 g than raw?
Per 100 g, at 90% lean and above cooked ground beef has more kcal than the same raw ground beef because the meat has lost water: 95% lean is 137 kcal raw and 174 as a broiled patty (SR Legacy 171790 and 171791). At 70% and 75% lean the cooked rows print fewer kcal than raw because fat is lost too (70% lean is 332 raw and 277 as a broiled patty, SR Legacy 168652 and 168651), and at 80% lean they run from 246 to 272 against 254 raw (SR Legacy 174036). So 100 g raw and 100 g cooked are different amounts of meat; log the weight you actually measured and pick the matching row.
Does IFCT 2017 have a ground beef row?
IFCT 2017, the Indian Food Composition Tables from ICMR-NIN, has beef rows by cut, which are on our beef, pork and duck guide, and no ground beef or mince row, so this page uses USDA SR Legacy only. The raw 85% lean ground beef record is on that guide, so it is not repeated here.
Can I log ground beef in NYUS?
NYUS is our app. You log foods yourself by searching 8,900+ Indian and global foods or by barcode; log meat by its weight when you can, and say whether it was raw or cooked and which lean percent the pack states. NYUS is in early access on Android: 30-day free trial, then plans from ₹499 for one month, paid once with no auto-renewal, no card needed to start.
