    Approximately 16% of cattle slaughtered in the United States are cows. When these cows are removed from the herd, they are typically in thin condition. Steaks from these cows are considered tougher than those from young ...
  • Marination technique influences whole muscle beef jerky salt content and flavor intensity
    Skaar, G.R.; Boyle, Elizabeth A. E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)
    Beef jerky is a popular meat snack that is simple to recognize and define. The USDA Food Standards and Labeling Policy Book (FSLPB) allows labeling use of the title “jerky” to a product that has been dried to a ...
  • Maximizing desirable ground beef color with cold storage and display temperatures
    Mancini, R.A.; Hunt, Melvin C.; Kropf, Donald H.; Hachmeister, K.A.; Johnson, D.E.; Fox, Sean (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    This study evaluated the combined effects of storage temperature, storage time, display temperature, display time, and fat level on ground beef color. Storage at 32°F minimized discoloration during display compared ...
  • Measurement of the binding properties of meat used in restructured beef products
    Goll, S.J.; Kastner, Curtis L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1987)
    The dried weight of the material washed from meat surfaces by distilled water closely paralleled the binding strength between meat particles as measured by tensile strength testing. Sponges added to meat pieces during ...
  • Mechanical blade tenderization of meat

    We randomly assigned 112 Angus yearling steers to 14 nutritional groups fed varied ration energy levels and varied lengths of time. Blade tenderized and non-tenderized boneless rib steaks were evaluated by a taste panel ...
  • Mechanical force measures on uncooked beef longissimus muscle can predict tenderness of strip loin steaks
    Timm, R.R.; Unruh, John A.; Dikeman, Michael E.; Hunt, dm; Lawrence, T.E.; Boyer, John E.; Marsden, James L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    We investigated mechanical force measurements on uncooked longissimus muscle as a means to predict Warner- Bratzler shear force (WBSF) and trained sensory panel tenderness (SPT) of cooked strip loin steaks. Uncooked ...
  • Methods of tenderization for value-added, hot-boned, restructured, pre-cooked roasts from cows
    Flores, H.A.; Kropf, Donald H.; Hunt, Melvin C.; Kastner, Curtis L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1986)
