Why are you worried about carbs if you are trying to bulk? Carbs are essential if you are trying to bulk.

its not the carbs im worried about it is the grams of fat and fat calories that I worry about...

fat from foods is not what causes fat storage in the human body. Fat content in food correlates to cholesterol, not fat tissue in the human body. If you are concerned about cholesterol and thus fat content in red meat simply eat the leaner red meat. Pretty easy to look at meat and see how much fat it has in it.
