About Beef steak

Beef steak is a portion of beef cut for cooking as a relatively discrete slice, usually across a muscle or from a named cut. It is not one anatomical cut, and may be grilled, pan-fried, broiled, or seared before serving whole or sliced.

Flavour, tenderness, and texture vary with the source cut, marbling, thickness, cooking temperature, and final doneness. A steak may be relatively lean or richly marbled, with a firmer or more tender bite according to its muscle and preparation.

Steaks may appear lean and uniformly red, visibly marbled, or bone-in. They are sold as individual fresh portions or prepared cuts, with thickness and trimming varying. Cooking changes colour, firmness, moisture, and rendered fat; slicing exposes the grain and interior.

Beef steak nutrition & diet

Beef steak nutritional value

Per 100 g of the edible portion in the recorded USDA food form.

Calories
229kcal
Protein
27.0g
Carbs
0.0g
Fat
12.9g

Reference values per 100 g for the displayed USDA form. Varieties, recipes, brands and preparation can differ.

Portions & preparation

Specify the named steak cut, trimming, thickness, and whether the edible portion is raw or cooked. Grilling, pan-frying, and broiling alter moisture, while butter, oil, marinades, rubs, and sauces add separate ingredients. Bone-in servings require an edible-meat basis rather than total plated weight.

Compare the right form: Match references to the exact steak cut, cooking state, trimming, and bone-in or boneless edible portion, not a generic steak listing.

Diet considerations

Beef steak is an animal-derived cattle product. Plain steak differs from breaded, marinated, stuffed, or sauced preparations, and compound butters may add dairy or other ingredients. Portion size matters, while serving it with bread, fries, grains, or other starches changes the overall carbohydrate pattern.
