Beef Tripe (Cooked) - How Many Calories?

Calories in cooked beef tripe

Plain simmered beef tripe provides 94 kcal, 11.71 g protein and 4.05 g fat per 100 g edible portion. A weighed 85 g amount provides 80 kcal; 150 g provides 141 kcal. The figures describe cooked tripe pieces, not a whole bowl of thickened tripe soup.

Why tripe and tripe soup need separate entries

Flour, yoghurt, egg and added fat change both the weight and composition of soup. A 150 g bowl does not contain 150 g of plain tripe. When using a complete recipe entry, do not add its tripe again.

Cooked, drained pieces weigh differently from the raw purchase. A fixed cooked yield cannot be assumed for every kilogram of raw tripe. Lemon and garlic can provide flavour, but they are not nutritionally interchangeable with an oily or flour-thickened sauce.

For a homemade soup with different quantities, calculate portions from the weighed finished batch. Keep the weight of plain tripe pieces separate from a bowl containing meat, thickener and water.

Protein is only part of the comparison

Per 100 g, tripe contains 157 mg cholesterol and 81 mg calcium. A 150 g amount supplies 17.57 g protein. There is no single “healthiest organ meat” ranking based on protein alone: braised liver’s vitamin A, beef spleen’s iron and tripe’s composition differ.

Plain tripe has no fibre in the reference. Vegetables or pulses add different nutrients to the meal without changing the tripe itself.

Cooking reference

USDA SR28 entry 23640 describes cooked, simmered beef tripe. Raw tripe, veal or lamb tripe and prepared soups are different records. Its 85 g serving is a source measure, not a universal restaurant portion.
