Calculate the calories of your homemade hamburger patty based on the ingredients you choose.
How to Use the Hamburger Patty Calorie Calculator
To use the calculator, fill in the weight of your hamburger patty in grams, select the type of meat, enter the fat percentage of the meat, choose the cooking method, and enter the weight of any additional ingredients in grams. Click the “Calculate” button to get the total estimated calories of your meal.
Calculation Method
The calculator uses the average base calorie content per 100 grams for different types of meat (beef, chicken, pork, turkey). It then adjusts the calorie content based on the fat percentage you enter. The total calorie value is then adjusted depending on the cooking method, as different methods retain different amounts of calories. Finally, it adds the calories from any additional ingredients you specify.
Limitations
This calculator is meant to provide an estimate based on average values and common cooking methods. Actual calorie content may vary depending on specific brands, additional marinades or spices, and precise cooking conditions. Always consult nutritional information on packaging or from a nutritionist for the most accurate data.
