Me, personally, absolutely zero.  I get almost ALL my protein from chicken, egg whites, protein powder, and sometimes from fish.  Every now and then i'll cook up some red meat, but not usually.

I used to eat a bunch of ground meat because it was the cheapest form of protein..

I later found out something like more than 8oz a day can lead to colon cancer...

Try to diversify and don't do what I did.. buy chicken breast.. etc.

3-4 times a week.  Its a sub for chicken for when I absolutely cannot throw down a chicken breast.

I eat about a pound of flank steak a week.
Everyone always says 'ewwww, flank is so tough'
Not at all.  I just slap it on the grill - 7 mins/side - yummy  Much tastier than tenderloin/filet
Confession:  I put catsup on my steak.  :P

Stick with the leaner cuts like the sirloin and avoid the ribeye type that contains a lot of fat, and you will make the chickens happy

And I would say I eat Chicken most of the time, lean beef second, and fish third. Just dont care for fish that much. Usually red meat 2 or 3 times a week. There was a place in town that had all you could eat Angus sirloin on Mondays that was very good. I would eat about 32 ounces of it before they started giving me the eye.

I'll eat red meat every day(8 oz. portions).Sometimes i'll eat it more than once a day also.Reason however is that I find red meat (lean cuts only & any visible fat gets trimmed off) helps me in my training more than chicken breasts or tuna ever did.Feel much stronger when eating red meat while w/fish or chicken I really don't feel anything from them & find chicken too damn dry.Oh yeah,...I also hate all fish except for tuna & some shellfish.

FYI:  Just include plenty of fiber in your diet.  This prevents colon cancer.  In addition to the fiber I get from oats, fruit and veggies, I drink a glass of V8 fruit juice with two tea spoons of pure Psyllium fiber powder, everyday.
