  • Smoking the Perfect Sausage
    PROCEDURES FOR SMOKING THE PERFECT SAUSAGE Start with a stuffed casing at room temperature. DRYING THE SAUSAGE You can achieve the drying by placing the sausage in your smokehouse with the damper open at about 140-150° for one hour. Reasons for drying the sausage: Drying the sausage brings all the sausages to about the same temperature for an even smoke color. Drying conditions the surface of the sausage to ready it to accept smoke. Drying causes a “skin” to form on the outside surface of the sausage. Drying gives the collagen casing strength to hold up during cooking. Drying also attaches the casing to the sausage so as to avoid forming a fat layer between the sausage and the casing. SMOKING THE SAUSAGE Smoking can be achieved by placing a pan of sawdust/chips in the smoker on the burner. The sawdust/chips must be soaked in water at least one hour. Soak in half the volume of water that you have sawdust/chips. (4 cups sawdust/2 cups water) Heat the smoker to approximately 170⁰ to ignite the sawdust/chips to achieve smoke. Close the damper to half open at this point. COOKING As the sawdust/chips burn, the water will evaporate and a dry heat will set in. The dry smoke will set the smoke in the sausage. After most of the sawdust/chips have burned, remove the pan from the smoker and let the pan cool for 5-10 minutes. After this time, fill the pan half full of water and return to the burner. Close the damper and turn the temperature to approximately 180-190⁰, this will cause a high humidity to cook the sausage.

  • Meat Curing and Sodium Nitrite
    MEDIA MYTHCRUSHER Meat Curing and Sodium Nitrite The use of nitrite to produce cured meats like salami, ham, bacon and hot dogs, is a safe, regulated practice that has distinct public health benefits. However, much confusion and even mythology surrounds nitrite. Being mindful of key words and statistics and providing appropriate context can help reporters improve the accuracy of their coverage and the information that is passed on to readers and viewers. We’ve compiled ten tips to improve accuracy when writing about the use of sodium nitrite in cured meats. #1: Nitrite is not ‘unnatural’. Before the terms nitrate and nitrite are often used refrigeration was available, humans salted and interchangeably, meat companies mainly use dried meat to preserve it. It was discovered sodium nitrite to cure meat, not sodium nitrate. that the nitrate in saltpeter was extremely At the turn of the 20th century, German effective in causing a chemical reaction known scientists discovered nitrite (and not nitrate) as “curing.” Not only did this give meat a was the active form of these curing salts. When distinct taste and flavor, it also preserved it and added directly, rather than as nitrate, meat prevented the growth of Clostridium botulinum, processors can have better control of this which causes botulism. important curing ingredient and more closely manage how much they are adding. Later on, scientists came to understand that nitrate naturally found in the environment #3: Cured meats are a miniscule source of converts to nitrite when in the presence of total human nitrite intake. Scientists say that certain bacteria.

  • Nutritional Characteristics and Consumer Acceptability of Sausages with Different Combinations of Goat and Beef Meats
    Functional Foods in Health and Disease 2016; 6(1):42-58 Page 42 of 58 Research Article Open Access Nutritional characteristics and consumer acceptability of sausages with different combinations of goat and beef meats *Fatemeh Malekian, Margarita Khachaturyan, Sebhatu Gebrelul, and James F. Henson Southern University Agricultural Research and Extension Center, A. O. Williams Hall, P. O. Box 10010, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70813, USA *Corresponding author: Fatemeh Malekian, Professor, Southern University Agricultural Research and Extension Center, 181 B.A. Little Drive, A.O. Williams Hall, P.O. Box 10010, Baton Rouge LA 70813, USA Submission date: October 28, 2015, Acceptance date: January 28, 2016: Publication date: January 29, 2016 ABSTRACT Background: Obesity and cardiovascular heart diseases are becoming more prevalent in the United States. This is partly due to the increasing consumption of red meats, such as pork and beef. However, goat meat has the potential to replace these traditionally consumed meats. Rice bran is a rich source of antioxidants, including vitamin E, which can be utilized as a binder in meat and meat-related products. Methods: Goat meat/beef sausages were formulated to contain either 50/50, 75/25 or 100/0 percent goat meat/beef, with either no added rice bran (NRB) or 3 percent stabilized rice bran (RB). Proximate analysis, fatty acids, 훼-tocopherol and cholesterol concentrations of the six cooked formulations were determined. The six sausage formulations were compared in a consumer acceptability taste test. Results: The fat concentration of the NRB and RB formulations decreased linearly with increasing percentages of goat meat (p < 0.001).

Significant changes (P<0.05) in physicochemical parameters attributa- ble to moisture loss, as well as changes in colour and textural properties were observed during the fermentation and ripening stage. Proteolysis and lipolysis, coming as a result of endogenous enzymatic activity and high lactic acid bacteria and staphylococci counts, contributed to specific organoleptic properties of the final product. Sensorial profiling showed a significant (P<0.05) acid taste, lactic acid odour and flavour intensity, and low fat/lean ratio and smokiness and saltiness values.

This was performed by blending (w/w) horse or donkey meat to beef meat in an extent up to 1:10000 (0.01%). The sensitivity was resolved as high as 0.01%. All used primers showed specificity in the PCR reactions utilizing layout DNAs from three animal species. PCR application on 96 beef meat and meat product samples gathered randomly from street vendors and prominent retail markets (24 of burger, 16 of minced meat, 24 of kofta, 16 of sausage, 7 of raw meat and 9 of launcheon) uncovered 6 positive for donkey tissue (3 from sausage, 2 from minced meat and 1 from kofta) and 2 positive for horse tissue (from sausage). This basic PCR strategy effectively distinguished adulteration of raw and processed beef meat samples with horse and donkey tissue. This work also highlights on the severity of the meat adulteration problem in Egypt. Keywords: meat adulteration; Egypt; PCR; beef; equines. Practical Application: Species-Specific PCR for identification of horse and donkey tissue in raw and processed beef meat to prevent meat adulteration in Egypt. 1 Introduction Regardless of performing more strict food labeling regulations appropriate particle for species identifying and distinguishing locally and all around, the adulteration or misrepresentation of evidence in foods (Singh & Neelam, 2011).

  • CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (From Either the French Chair Cuite = Cooked Meat, Or the French Cuiseur De
    CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (from either the French chair cuite = cooked meat, or the French cuiseur de chair = cook of meat) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as sausage primarily from pork. The practice goes back to ancient times and can involve the chemical preservation of meats; it is also a means of using up various meat scraps. Hams, for instance, whether smoked, air-cured, salted, or treated by chemical means, are examples of charcuterie. The French word for a person who prepares charcuterie is charcutier , and that is generally translated into English as "pork butcher." This has led to the mistaken belief that charcuterie can only involve pork. The word refers to the products, particularly (but not limited to) pork specialties such as pâtés, roulades, galantines, crépinettes, etc., which are made and sold in a delicatessen-style shop, also called a charcuterie." SAUSAGE A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted (Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means) meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ A sausage is a food usually made from ground meat , often pork , beef or veal , along with salt, spices and other flavouring and preserving agents filed into a casing traditionally made from intestine , but sometimes synthetic. Sausage making is a traditional food preservation technique. Sausages may be preserved by curing , drying (often in association with fermentation or culturing, which can contribute to preservation), smoking or freezing.
