Summary

A chilling procedure, called "very fast chilling" is proposed for freshly slaughtered meat (chilling at 0 °C in 4 hours). The procedure allows the preservation of meat tenderness as opposed to slower chilling procedures which cause muscle contraction due to refrigeration (cold shortening). Testing was done using relatively small meat cuts, instead of whole carcasses.
