Data and methodology
Keep the cut page tied to one shared dataset
Shared raw baseline
This page reads directly from the site’s shared beef dataset, so tri-tip stays aligned with the guide hub and the compare tool instead of using a separate local constant.

Serving-size scaling
The interactive calculator only scales the same per 100g raw values to your chosen gram amount. It does not switch into a second cooked-data model on this page.
Planning context only
Price, doneness context, and cooking methods are shown as planning notes rather than fixed outcomes for every store, recipe, or kitchen setup.
For raw-to-cooked portion conversion, move into the main beef nutrition calculator. This cut page stays raw-reference first so the numbers remain easy to compare across the system.
