That largely depends on the type, method of preparation and quantity consumed. Red meats do have a connection with cancer and Type II diabetes as well as the obvious cardiovasular disease connection. Sausage and processed meats also have similar connections. It is very important not to fall into the 'I know a guy' syndrome. After all, we know of those pack-a-day smokers that never got cancer. That doesn't make smoking a good idea.
