Red Meat is more calorie dense than chicken and eggs...... It has more B vitamins than chicken and eggs. and it has creatine and CLA in it.

i eat a steak every day. its high fat but i love the taste. i think chicken has more protein though lb for lb.

I prefer steaks, make sure they are lean cut ... but apparentley eggs have the highest absorption rate of all the proteins. It sucks though that you have to eat so many to get an adequate amount of protein (talking strictly egg whites)

Based on the PCDAAS all meats are inferior to eggs and dairy based on protein quality. I do believe beef is the highest rated meat source of protein(all meats are between .8 and .9 on the scale). Considering the massive quantities of protein most bodybuilder consume it doesn't make that much of a difference. There are other things to take into account as well. For example, meat has heme iron which is the mopst bioavailable form of iron.

No, red meat is not that much better

red meat has some benefits as stated above : creatine, CLA, iron and other minerals that you won't find in eggs

But the best is to take both red meat and eggs, along w/ other protein source

don't rely on just 1 source

Anyway a steak a day can only do good to you
