Energy comes from USDA nutrient 1008. Salt is calculated as sodium × 2.5, with unit conversion to grams. It is not a separately measured salt value.
Preparation
A broiled patty reads 270 kcal per 100 g against 254 raw, which looks wrong until you weigh it: the patty lost about a quarter of its weight, most of it water, and fat dripped through the rack. Fewer grams, slightly fewer calories, a higher figure per 100 g. Nothing was added. This is the single most misread number in mince, and it applies to every row in this family.
Logging this food
A 3 oz portion is 85 g cooked and 229 kcal. If you weighed the raw patty, use the raw row instead — logging a cooked weight against the raw figure understates by roughly a quarter, and logging a raw weight against this row overstates by about the same. Pick the moment you can actually weigh at and be consistent about it.
Swaps and alternatives
Broiling on a rack is already the fat-losing method: the pan-broiled row for the same mince is 246 per 100 g, lower again because more fat leaves into the pan and is left behind. A 90% patty broiled is 217 and a 95% one is 174, so the packet still decides more than the grill does.
