I just pooped & had a piece that was red and looked like rare cooked steak about the size of a quarter. what could it be?

A couple things: its possible it was blood. Internal hemorrhoid or something called a diverticulum can cause painless rectal bleeding and it may have been stool with some new blood. It could also have been food which had not been completely digested. Hard to know without more info. If you feel chronically tired, have generalized weakness or decreased exercise tolerance you should get a scheduled for anemia.
