Calories in Lidl Steak (Ireland)

Lidl steak ranked by protein density

Showing the top 50 of the 206 Lidl steak products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

What Lidl's steak looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 206 Lidl steak products with usable figures is 14.7g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 12.1g median for steak across every chain and brand in the database, which is 360 products.

159 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — most of them, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Of the two chains carrying enough steak to compare, Lidl has the strongest own-label range; Dunnes Stores the weakest.

The best Lidl option here reaches 23.2g of protein per 100 calories, which is as high as anything in the whole steak group gets.

Calories run from 104 to 344 per 100g across the Lidl steak range, a 3-fold spread, so “Lidl steak” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Lidl

Most of this group already clears the benchmark, so the decision is price and taste rather than macros. Lidl Birchwood 3 Turkey Breast Steaks 374g tops the table at 23.2g of protein per 100 calories.

Nothing in here passes 400 calories per 100g, so portion size matters less than it does in the snack aisles.

Where this fits

Steak across every Irish store is the wider group this sits in, and everything else Lidl sells is the other half of the comparison.

A protein-per-calorie number is only useful once you know the target, and that is how much protein a day actually works out to.
