And it's not only the beef liver that we have to be concerned about when it comes to cholesterol content.
Sure, it contains over three times the amount of almost-all other beef cuts based on per serving (typically three cooked ounces or four raw ounces) - but we can't ignore those at a lower tier where fatty acid content is involved because - oh dear, they too can be formidable culprits when it comes to our health.
They just love to block those pathways leading to our heart that are filled with life-providing blood.

Red meat generally equals red blood trouble when Father Time is involved. If we toss in a frayed family tree that has a history of heart disease, the situation isn't pretty.
We have a saying at Diet Bites: "Lean on lean." This is so applicable where red meat - or any animal protein is involved for that matter.
Let's take a look at our data chart below - at the ground beef area. The fatter grind contains a sizeable lead in cholesterol content over the low fat grind - just another reason to spend just a bit more and purchase those leaner grinds, as well as those leaner cuts of beef.
Sure, they cost a bit more - but they don't cook away as quickly (less shrinkage - and who doesn't like that?).
