Going to start putting meals on a rotation so we can stock up for the hot summer. Try to keep the red meat consumption low. Don't know if it's because I'm brainwashed or because it really is dangerous to eat red meat too often.

Wondering what the average out there is for red meat consumption and how do you prepare it? Right now we are at two to three times a month, but with the meal rotation it will likely go up to one to three times a week some times. I will be preparing and freezing things like taco meat, spaghetti meat sauce, hamburgers, Asian broccoli and beef, beef stew.

I consider red meat only beef

Im a butcher so I take things literally,,,red meat is not pork or chicken

although some claim it is


to your question...
beef, a steak or roast may once or twice a week,,,burgers and sausage once a week

pork ribs pork chops,, pork tenderloin,,,,twice a week

chicken,,,2-3 times a week,,

bacon, eggs, maybe 2-3 times per week

yeah I eats lots and lots of protein,,,my dr. said whatever im doing,,,keep doing it,,,I have better bloodwork than he does(and he's close to a vegan) and im not on any medications,,,,

we've heard many many many times how red meat is bad for you, below is an article saying it has some good benefits

Amount: I consume 1/3 pound of beef (custom order, ground steak) 3x/week (approx. 1 lb./wk.).
Method: Fry with butter in pan on stovetop, render into small fragments with a potato masher while cooking, and serve with macaroni & salt.

For dinner- We eat venison or game 2-3x per week chicken or pork maybe twice, I eat fish twice and the rest is usually just veggie based or pasta dishes with no meat.

Lunch- my son and I eat venison salami and veggies for lunch plus fruit.

Beef is a pretty rare occasion for us. Maybe once a month.

I eat goat (rarely eat beef) at least one a month. Goat is actually pretty good for you, so I don't feel like I'm cheating on my diet when I have it

Red meat- beef in any form- I only buy it around 3 times per year.
And the only form is the frozen slices used to make Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches.

Oh, I did grab 2 double cheeseburgers at Mcdonalds one day last summer- I'd stopped buying ground beef in any form back in 2011.

Ate about 1/2 of ground chuck tonight, will have another .5-.75 lb tomorrow, and had 2 Bubba Burger's yesterday...3-4 days a week sounds about right, 2-3 days chicken, 2 days pork. Always have a meat for dinner! Never fish though.

I feel pretty alright!
