The noun meat is an uncountable noun as a word for a substance.

Units of meat are expressed as pieces of meat, cuts of meaat, pounds of meat, etc.

For example, in a restaurant you might ask for somemeat, but not 'a' meat, which means one meat.

The plural form for an uncountable noun for a substance is used for 'types of' or 'kinds of'; for example: The meats on sale are the pork chops and roasting chickens.
