Cooked meat = people × cooked portion. Raw meat = cooked meat ÷ retained yield. Meat cost = raw kilograms × price per kilogram. We keep full precision in the calculation and round the displayed figures.
This is a shopping estimate for trimmed, boneless meat. It does not estimate cooking time or tell you when food is safe. For a real cook, follow the equipment instructions and current food-safety guidance.
