Here are the Best Keto Beef Dinners for you to consider for your next meal.  All of the recipes are super easy to prepare.  Remember that beef is high in saturated fat.  I’ve suggested using grass-fed beef if you want the recipe to be more heart healthy.  Grass-fed beef is lower in saturated fat, higher in Omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants and has less exposure to hormones and antibiotics.   The choice is yours. I’ve also included recipes to enhance your beef dishes, such as a marinade and some seasoning rubs. 

CAN I USE GRASS-FED BEEF FOR MY KETO BEEF DINNERS?

Grass-fed beef has less overall saturated fat compared to its classic counterparts. The old adage is true, “No Fat No Flavor.”  Fat certainly adds to the juiciness and tenderness of the beef.   Grass-fed cattle generally have more muscle than fat because of grazing on natural turf.  This can make the meat have more dense muscle fiber making the meat harder to chew. 

Since grass-fed beef is leaner, it is really less forgiving when it comes to cooking and certainly to overcooking.   There are a few tips to keep in mind if you choose grass-fed beef for your dinner recipes:

Grass-fed beef is best tasting when cooked to medium-rare or medium doneness.  If you like your beef to be well-done, it’s probably better to stick to grain-fed beef.

Be sure to use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking.

Marinading can make a world of difference for tenderizing the meat.  Below you’ll find a fabulous marinade recipe.

Slow-cooking can also help to break down tougher muscle fibers.  Below you’ll find a recipe for. Crock Pot Beef.

If you’re grilling, use indirect heat for grass-fed beef cuts to help prevent overcooking.

While this is true for all beef, be sure to rest the cooked meat before slicing it to allow its juices to redistribute.  This in itself can enhance tenderness and juiciness.

WHAT ARE THE PREDOMINANT TASTE SENSATIONS OF KETO BEEF DINNERS?

Beef is a heavy ingredient containing saturated fat. Even if you prefer grass-fed beef, the ingredient is still quite heavy on the palate. The predominant taste sensation is fattiness. The different Keto Beef Dinner Recipes will all showcase other taste sensation based on the ingredient list. Most will be heavy, due to beef taking center stage.

WHAT WINES HARMONIZE WITH KETO BEEF DINNERS?

In most cases Keto Beef Dinner Recipes contain some form of beef. Therefore the wine will usually demand a big red wine to match.  Good choices include Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc, to name a few.

*Wine Tips: To support your Keto diet or low-carb lifestyle, choose low-carb, low-sugar, and low-alcohol wines that are free of additives and artificial coloring.  Include your wine carb macros as part of your meal.  Remember, your liver will process alcohol before nutrients, pausing ketone creation and slowing the ketosis process. Your body will also metabolize alcohol as fuel before using food. This can slow fat burning and may cause your body to store carbs, fat, and protein as excess body fat.  Alcohol consumption also stimulates the appetite.  So, drink low-sugar, low-carb, and low alcohol wines in moderation.
