Okay so my ground beef started out 86% lean then I cooked it for chili and drained it in a strainer for a while. So how much fat does it have now?

This is the only mean in the chili but I am trying to figure out if it is healthy (low fat and calerie) or not. If it is bad I wouldn't eat it daily but if it is I will cause it is yummy.

Anyway I guess my question is if meat is drained is that low fat?
 
There's really no good way of telling what the fat content is now -kind of like telling what teh sodium content is of canned beans after you've drained and rinsed them.

You've made the ground beef heathier than it was... and reasonable portions won't kill you...

Next time you make the chili - make it 1/2 ground beef and 1/2 ground lean turkey or add more beans to it..
