Beef, fat, average, raw

Beef fat is the fatty tissue from beef, described here in its raw form with the lean meat trimmed away. The supplied figures represent an average across different cuts. It mainly provides fat, with some protein. Per 100g, it contains 54g of fat, including 25g of saturated fat, and 19g of protein, with an energy content of 2305 kJ.

Fat provides energy and helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The energy and saturated fat content are relevant for people monitoring these aspects of their diet. These figures describe raw beef fat rather than cooked or rendered fat.
