Tag: Ounces per cup

A cup of cooked, drained ground beef weighs approximately 4 ounces. However, this conversion is not a precise science, as the number of ounces in a cup if ground beef can vary significantly based on the meat's raw state, fat content, and how tightly it is packed.

A standard cup of cubed or shredded cooked chicken breast typically weighs around 5.25 ounces. However, this is not a universal rule, as the final weight is heavily influenced by factors like cooking method, cut size, and how densely the chicken is packed into the cup.
