Beef fore-rib, also called rib-roast, is a cut of beef from the rib section. These figures describe the lean meat after microwave cooking. It mainly provides protein and fat, with 35g of protein and 11g of fat per 100g, including 5g of saturated fat. It also supplies iron, zinc and B vitamins, including 3µg of vitamin B12 per 100g.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while vitamin B12 helps maintain normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Although these figures are for lean meat, it still contains saturated fat, which is worth noting for people monitoring their intake. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
