just to clarify the answer before mine:

halal meat: any permissible animal which has been slaughtered the islamic way by slitting the throat and in the name of God. Note this is very different from sacrificing the animal to please God. The idea is only to acknowledge that God is the provider of all your blessings/providence (the meat and resulting steak included haha)

haram meat: any expressly prohibited animal/meat (pig/carnivores/scavengers/dead animals/birds of prey etc)

benefits of halal:

1)animals slaughtered in this way feel less pain and die sooner

2)the meat is healthier due to the blood and toxins being forcefully pumped out by the spasms and still beating heart.

That's all I could think of off the top of my head but there's other aspects too:-)

Halal meat means the sacrifice accoding to islamic rule for the animals whose meat are allowed to consume.

This includes list of conditions like:

The knife with which the animal is to be sacrificed should be sharp enough.

Sacrified animal should be made to drink water before sacrificing.

Intention of sacrificing should be purely and surely for Allah. Reciting Bismillahi Allahu Akbar.

Let the sacrificied animals blood flow continously and letting it die completely.

Distrubuting the meat accordingly to poor, relatives and self consume.

These all include HALAL meat.

Regardig Haram meat, the opposite rituals for Halal meat is Haram meat. This includes:

Sacrificing animals which are prohibited in Islam, for eg. Tiger, Pig, Dog, Cat.

Not reciting the name of Allah or sacrificing meat in the name other than Allah.

I hope answer the question.
