Summary

AN INVESTIGATION WAS CARRIED OUT ON THE EFFECTS OF PRERIGOR AND HOT CURING ON THE QUALITY OF SMOKED-COOKED CHICKENS. CARCASSES WERE SUBJECTED TO ONE OF FOUR CURING TREATMENTS PRIOR TO BEING SMOKED, IE: A) POSTSLAUGHTER CHILLING FOR 24 HR FOLLOWED BY BRINING AT 275 K (2 DEG C) FOR 24 HR ; B) PRERIGOR CURING IN BRINE AT 275 K FOR 24 HR ; C) PRERIGOR CURING IN BRINE AT 323 K (50 DEG C) FOR 18 HR ; D) PRERIGOR CURING IN BRINE AT 323 K FOR 12 HR. ORGANOLEPTIC QUALITY, AS MEASURED BY TASTE PANEL AND SHEAR FORCE VALUES, DID NOT DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY BETWEEN TREATMENTS. TOTAL MICROBIOLOGICAL COUNTS WERE HIGHER IN THE HOT-PROCESSED CHICKENS. THE RESULTS INDICATED THAT IT SHOULD BE POSSIBLE TO ACCELERATE THE CURING OF POULTRY BY USING PRERIGOR CARCASSES AND HOT BRINES.
