No. More than a small amount of meat on a ride is a bad idea, unless you are going slow. When you are working hard your stomach doesn't digest things well, and meat is difficult to digest. I have seen guys eat half a roast beef sandwich on a ride and then feel bad and go slow for the rest of the ride.

Eat something that is easier to digest. Pro racers will sometimes have a ham sandwich during a race but that's a slice of ham, not a whole pile of meat.
