Beef, steak, ribeye, lean only eaten calories: 552 per 1 regular (240 g)
This exact USDA record reports 552 calories for 1 regular (240 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 552 calories for 1 regular at 240 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 230 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 63.6 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 874 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beef, rib eye steak, boneless, lip-on, separable lean only, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, grilled, representing 69.4% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 regular at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 39–828 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2705830: “Beef, steak, ribeye, lean only eaten.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2705830, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 thick” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cubic inchUSDA-listed household measure | 17 g | 39 kcal | 4.5 g | 0 g | 62 mg |
| 1 regularUSDA-listed household measure | 240 g | 552 kcal | 63.6 g | 0 g | 874 mg |
| 1 thickUSDA-listed household measure | 360 g | 828 kcal | 95.4 g | 0 g | 1,310 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Beef, excludes ground
The comparison set contains 25 exact records in the Beef, excludes ground USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2705830’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2705830’s 240 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Strength-side signals
Iron6 mg
≈ 32% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Potassium679 mg
≈ 14% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Tradeoff-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Beef, steak, ribeye, lean only eaten,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2705829 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cubic inch to 1 thick
USDA assigns those measures 17 g and 360 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 39 kcal to 828 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2705829
At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.8 g less total fat than “Beef, steak, ribeye, lean and fat eaten.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Beef, rib eye steak, boneless, lip-on, separable lean only, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, grilled
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Beef, rib eye steak, boneless, lip-on, separable lean only, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, grilled supplies 69.4% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “steak; ribeye; lean only eaten” fits. Inspect FDC 2705829 when “steak; ribeye; lean and fat eaten” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.
For “Beef, steak, ribeye, lean only eaten,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
cut and fat trim
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 03
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
breading, marinade, or sauce
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2705830 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 230 kcal per 100 g becomes 552 kcal at 240 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 regular has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2705830
FNDDS food code: 21101190
The scaling for FDC 2705830 can be exact while the match to “Beef, steak, ribeye, lean only eaten” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 240 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
