Preparation
Broiled 85% mince is 250 kcal per 100 g against 215 raw, because the patty lost water on the rack while the fat that dripped away took less energy with it than the water took weight. USDA's patty here is the yield from a quarter pound: 113 g of raw mince comes off the grill at 77 g. That is a 32% shrink, and it is the number to picture whenever a cooked figure looks higher than a raw one.
Logging this food
One patty is 77 g and 193 kcal — the honest calorie count of a quarter-pounder's meat, and considerably less than most people expect. What surrounds it is usually larger: a bun, a slice of cheese and a spoon of sauce can add more than the beef contains. Log the patty from this row and everything else on its own line.
Swaps and alternatives
Pan-browning the same mince gives 232 kcal per 100 g against 250, because more fat is left behind in the pan. A 90% patty broiled is 217 and a 95% one is 174. Between the four levels the broiled range is 270 to 174, which is narrower than the raw range of 254 to 137 — cooking closes some of the gap by melting it away.
