Summary

Lamb carcasses either 2-3 and 5 months are treated in three ways: 1) rapid precooling (-4 to 0 deg C); 2) semi-rapid precooling (0 deg C); 3) conventional precooling (2 to 4 deg C). The effects of these different treatments and the storage time after treatment (up to seven days) on the tenderness of the meat are studied and discussed.
