Kinds of Patties Selected AbstractsRELATIONSHIPS of PHYSICAL PROPERTIES of FAT-SUBSTITUTES, COOKING METHODS and FAT LEVELS WITH QUALITY of GROUND BEEF PATTIESJOURNAL OF FOOD PROCESSING AND PRESERVATION, Issue 2 2000J. JU Ground beef patties containing 2 fat levels (5%, 10%), and 3 fat-substitutes (LeanBind, Rice* Complete 3, and Sta-Slim 171) were processed using 3 cooking methods (microwave, roasting, and pan-frying). Correlation analyses between patty quality and the physical properties of the fat-substitutes, as well as the composition of both raw and cooked patties were conducted. Regression models of patty quality parameters as functions of the physical properties of the fat-substitutes, and as the function of the patty composition were developed. This work demonstrated that the fat-substitutes can be evaluated based on regression models relating patty quality to the physical properties of the fat-substitutes. [source] SENSORY EVALUATION OF BROILED AND GRILLED BISON PATTIES BY TRAINED PANELISTS,JOURNAL OF FOOD QUALITY, Issue 4 2001JAYNE M. McCLENAHAN ABSTRACT Sensory characteristics of broiled and grilled patties from grain-fed bison were evaluated by a 13-member trained sensory panel. Ground patties (approximately 113 g, 12.2 cm diameter, 0.9 cm thick) from 6 grinding dates were broiled (260C) or grilled (163C) to 71C internal temperature. Cooking time was significantly shorter (p < 0.0001) for grilled than broiled patties, while cooking yields were similar. Broiled patties were judged to have a more gray than brown surface color, a more red than gray interior color, to be more juicy, and to be more tender than grilled, while their aromatic and flavor intensities were similar. [source] STRATEGIES FOR PROLONGING THE SHELF LIFE OF MINCED BEEF PATTIESJOURNAL OF FOOD SAFETY, Issue 1 2009MATTEO ALESSANDRO DEL NOBILE ABSTRACT The study of different strategies for prolonging the shelf life of fresh minced beef patties was addressed in this work. Fresh minced beef was supplemented with thymol (THY) at levels of 250, 500 and 750 mg per kg of ground beef. Treated samples were packed using a high barrier film and stored in refrigerated conditions (4C) under ordinary atmosphere packaging and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) conditions for 16 days. The microbiological quality decay kinetic was determined by monitoring the following microorganisms: Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp., lactic acid bacteria, Brochothrix thermosphacta, coliforms and total psychrotrophic viable count. Results show that THY, working alone, was effective on coliforms and Enterobacteriaceae, whereas it does not seem to inhibit to a great extent the growth of the other microbial populations. On the other hand, an increased amount of THY, under MAP conditions, had better effects on the product quality, with a consequent prolongation of the shelf life. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Great interest is developing in food bio-preservation, because of the ever-increasing needs to protect consumers' health and to valorize the naturalness and safety of food products. However, very few works have been carried out on the applications of bio-preservatives to extend the shelf life of fresh meat products. This study, therefore, was mainly initiated to evaluate the possibility of extending the shelf life of packed fresh meat patties by a combination of thymol (THY) to other extrinsic factors such as storage temperatures and modified atmosphere during packaging. Interesting results were obtained suggesting that THY can perform an efficient synergy with modified atmosphere conditions and could be advantageously utilized by the meat industry. [source] A NEW APPROACH TO CORRELATE TEXTURAL AND COOKING PARAMETERS WITH OPERATING CONDITIONS DURING DOUBLE-SIDED COOKING OF MEAT PATTIESJOURNAL OF TEXTURE STUDIES, Issue 5 2000SUSANA E. ZORRILLA Cooking and textural parameters during double-sided cooking of hamburger patties were correlated with volume-averaged temperature at the end of the cooking process and gap thickness between plates. Frozen patties were cooked in a clamshell grill set at different plate surface temperatures (177C; 191C; 204C; 218C), for different gap thicknesses (9.65 mm; 10.55 mm; 10.55 mm; 11.05 mm) for 120 s. A decrease in the gap thickness and an increase in the plate surface temperature resulted in an increase in the cooking loss values (24,36%) and in a decrease of press juice values (8,25%). The values of peak load (183,215 N), modulus (16,19 N/mm), work needed in shearing (2300,2800 Nmm), hardness (25,32 N), cohesiveness (0.76,0.83), and chewiness (107,152 Nmm) of the patties increased when the gap thickness decreased and the plate surface temperature increased. There was no effect of the variables studied on springiness. The correlation equations involving the operating variables and quality parameters obtained are simple and useful in developing optimal process conditions. [source] Physicochemical, textural, sensory characteristics and storage stability of goat meat patties extended with full-fat soy paste and soy granulesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 3 2008Arun K. Das Summary The performance of full-fat soy paste (FFSP) with reduced beany flavour made by simple processing technology was compared with the commercially available textured soy granules in goat meat patties. Addition of soy proteins (soy paste and soy granules) did not significantly affect the emulsion stability and product yield. Shrinkage of patties with soy paste was comparable with control. A significant (P < 0.05) reduction in redness and increase in yellowness of patties was due to addition of soy proteins than in control. Patties with soy paste had comparable but slightly higher total lipid and cholesterol content with that of control but significantly (P < 0.05) higher than patties with soy granules. Lower force was required to compress or shear the sample, as hardness decreased in soy-added patties. Flavour and overall acceptability scores between control and patties with soy paste did not differ significantly, whereas patties with soy granules were rated significantly lower. The patties remained stable with minor changes in physicochemical, microbiological and sensory quality during refrigerated storage (4 ± 1 °C) for 20 days. It is concluded from this study that FFSP had potential application similar to commercially available textured soy granules in comminuted meat products. [source] Process Optimization and Consumer Acceptability of Salted Ground Beef Patties Cooked and Held Hot in Flavored MarinadeJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 7 2010Subash Shrestha Abstract:, Food safety is paramount for cooking hamburger. The center must reach 71 °C (or 68 °C for 15 s) to assure destruction of,E. coli,O157:H7 and other food pathogens. This is difficult to achieve during grilling or frying of thick burgers without overcooking the surface. Thus, the feasibility of partially or completely cooking frozen patties in liquid (93 °C water) together with hot holding in liquid was investigated. Initial studies demonstrated that compared to frying, liquid cooking decreased (P,< 0.05) patty diameter (98 compared with 93 mm) and increased (P,< 0.05) thickness (18.1 compared with 15.6 mm). Liquid cooked patties had greater weight loss (P,< 0.05) immediately after cooking (29 compared with 21%), but reabsorbed moisture and were not different from fried patties after 1 h hot water holding (61 °C). Protein and fat content were not affected by cooking method. However, liquid cooked patties were rated lower (P,< 0.05) than fried patties for appearance (5.7 compared with 7.5) and flavor (5.9 compared with 7.5). An 8-member focus group then evaluated methods to improve both appearance and flavor. Salted, grill-marked patties were preferred, and caramel coloring was needed in the marinade to obtain acceptable flavor and color during liquid cooking or hot holding. Patties with 0.75% salt that were grill-marked and then finish-cooked in hot marinade (0.75% salt, 0.3% caramel color) were rated acceptable (P,< 0.05) by consumers for up to 4 h hot holding in marinade, with mean hedonic panel ratings > 7.0 (like moderately) for appearance, juiciness, flavor, and texture. Practical Application: Grill-marked and marinade-cooked ground beef patties reached a safe internal cooking temperature without overcooking the surface. Burgers cooked using this method maintained high consumer acceptability right after cooking and for up to 4 h of hot holding. Consumers and foodservice operations could use this method without specialized equipment, and instead use inexpensive and common equipment such as a soup pot or a restaurant steam table. Use of marinades (salt/caramel color or others) in this cooking and holding method provides a nearly endless culinary flavoring opportunity. [source] Inclusion of Blended Lipid Solutions as Functional Ingredients to Alter the Fatty Acid Profile of Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 7 2010A.C. Lowder Abstract:, Beef patties formulated to contain beef fat, plant oil, and a rosemary extract to increase unsaturated fatty acid content and maintain desirable sensory attributes were compared to control beef patties formulated without plant oils. Treatment patties were formulated to a fat content of 10% or 20% by combining beef trimmings (6% fat) with 4% or 14% addition of a lipid blend. Blends contained 57% beef tallow, 0.3% rosemary extract, and 43% of high oleic safflower oil (SO), olive oil (OO), or corn oil (CO). Lipid oxidation, as measured by TBA values, of treatment patties were similar to control patties after 0 and 3 d of refrigerated (2 °C) storage and up to 56 d of frozen (,10 °C) storage. Cooked lipid blend patties having a fat content of 10% or 20% were similar to or higher than control patties for juiciness and were no different for other sensory attributes evaluated. At fat levels of 10% or 20%, oleic acid (18: 1) in cooked SO patties (46.1% and 50.3%, respectively) and OO patties (43.8% and 48.1%, respectively) was higher than the control (37.3% and 37.6%, respectively). Unsaturated to saturated fatty acid ratios at the 10% or 20% fat levels were higher in SO (1.37 and 1.60, respectively) and CO (1.40 and 1.48, respectively) patties than the control (0.97 and 0.94, respectively). Beef patties manufactured with varying lipid blends increased unsaturated fatty acid content and were similar in physical characteristics and sensory attributes of all beef patties formulated without lipid blends. Practical Application:, The development of healthier beef products that will be more appealing to consumers has long been an industry goal. The authors believe that lipid blends such as the one used in this study could be used to create such products, not only in the form of beef patties, but any number of processed meat products. Because the materials and equipment used to create the lipid blends in this study are widely available, their incorporation into meat products would represent a small capital investment. This is an important factor in bringing a reasonably priced, healthier product to consumers. [source] Use of Lysozyme, Nisin, and EDTA Combined Treatments for Maintaining Quality of Packed Ostrich PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 3 2010Marianna Mastromatteo ABSTRACT:, The antimicrobial effectiveness of lysozyme, nisin, and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) combination treatments (Mix1: 250 ppm lysozyme, 250 ppm nisin, 5 mM EDTA; Mix2: 500 ppm lysozyme, 500 ppm nisin, 5 mM EDTA) on bacterial growth of ostrich patties packaged in air, vacuum, and 2 different modified atmospheres (MAP1: 80% O2, 20% CO2; MAP2: 5% O2, 30% CO2, 65% N2) was evaluated. Moreover, the lipid oxidation was evaluated as well as color and sensory characteristics. The growth of total viable counts and lactic acid bacteria were strongly inhibited by the antimicrobial treatments in all the running time (Inhibition Index >97%) whereas for Enterobacteriaceae,and Pseudomonas,spp. lower inhibition indices from 12% to about 28% were observed. The lipid oxidation was more pronounced in the control respect to the treated meat patties. Moreover, the mixture at low concentration of lysozyme and nisin showed the best antioxidative effect. High concentrations of lysozyme and nisin showed the greatest color loss. Also, off-odors for the untreated patties developed faster than the treated samples. Practical Application: Great interest is developing in food bio-preservation, because of the ever-increasing needs to protect consumers' health and to valorize the naturalness and safety of food products. [source] Effects of Various Fiber Additions on Lipid Digestion during,In Vitro,Digestion of Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 9 2009S.J. Hur ABSTRACT:, The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of various fiber additions on lipid digestion during the,in vitro,digestion of beef patties. The control patties were prepared with 90.5% lean meat and 9.5% tallow. Treatments consisted of 90% lean meat with 9.5% tallow and either 0.5% cellulose, 0.5% chitosan, or 0.5% pectin. The beef patties were then passed through an,in vitro,digestion model that simulated the composition of the mouth, stomach, and small intestine juices. The change in structure and properties of the lipid droplets was monitored by laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy. In general, there was a decrease in lipid droplet diameter as the droplets moved from mouth to stomach to small intestine. The amount of free fatty acid dramatically increased after,in vitro,digestion in all beef patties. The amount of free fatty acid was, however, lower in beef patties containing chitosan and pectin than other beef patties after,in vitro,digestion. Beef patties containing various fibers had lower thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) values than samples with no fibers. Among the samples to which fibers were added, chitosan and pectin had lower TBARS than beef patties with cellulose. The cholesterol content decreased after,in vitro,digestion in all beef patties but was not different among the beef patties before and after,in vitro,digestion. These results enhance our understanding of the physicochemical and structural changes that occur to ground beef within the gastrointestinal tract. [source] Reduction of Oil Absorption in Deep-Fried, Battered, and Breaded Chicken Patties Using Whey Protein Isolate as a Postbreading Dip: Effect on Flavor, Color, and TextureJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 1 2009E. Mah ABSTRACT:, The effect of the application of whey protein isolate (WPI) solution as a postbreading dip to reduce oil absorption in deep-fried, battered, and breaded chicken patties on sensory properties was investigated. Chicken patties were battered, breaded with either crackermeal (CMP) or Japanese breadcrumbs (JBP), and dipped into WPI solutions at varying protein concentrations (0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%[w/w] WPI) and pH levels (pH 2, 3, and 8). A trained descriptive sensory panel evaluated the patties for 16 attributes relating to appearance, texture, and flavor. Instrumental analysis on the color and texture of the patties was also performed. The only perceivable changes in treated patties were related to color, hardness, and crunchiness. Increasing WPI concentration caused darkening of JBP but made CMP lighter. Patties treated at pH 8 were significantly darker across all WPI concentrations. The presence of WPI increased hardness and crust fracture for CMP but not JBP. Variations in pH levels did not affect texture. Thus, JBP that showed the highest lipid reduction (10% WPI at pH 2) were observed to be darker, less yellow, but did not produce any perceivable changes in hardness or crunchiness, while CMP with the lowest lipid content (5% WPI at pH 2) were lighter, more yellow, harder, and crunchier. [source] Identification of Listeria innocua Surrogates for Listeria monocytogenes in Hamburger PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 4 2008E.C. Friedly ABSTRACT:,Listeria innocua M1 has been used by many researchers as a nonpathogenic thermal processing surrogate for Listeria monocytogenes. However, L. innocua M1 has been criticized because its thermal survivability characteristics are not as closely parallel to L. monocytogenes as some would like in a variety of foods and processing conditions. The present study was conducted to compare multiple L. innocua and L. monocytogenes strains to validate L. innocua M1 as the ideal surrogate under high-temperature thermal processing conditions for L. monocytogenes. The D - and z -values of L. innocua M1, L. innocua strain SLCC 5639 serotype (6a), SLCC 5640 (6b), SLCC 2745 (4ab), and L. monocytogenes F4243 (4b) were calculated for raw hamburger patties. Hamburger patties were inoculated with 107,8 CFU/g of L. monocytogenes or L. innocua. Samples were heat treated at 4 temperatures (62.5 to 70 °C). At each temperature, the decimal reduction time (D -value) was obtained by linear regression of survival curves. The D - and z -values were determined for each bacterium. The D -values of L. innocua and L. monocytogenes serotypes ranged from 3.17 to 0.13 min at 62.5 to 70 °C, and the z -values of L. innocua and L. monocytogenes were 7.44 to 7.73 °C. Two of the 4 L. innocua serotypes used in this experiment have the potential for use as surrogates in hamburger meat with varying margins of safety. L. innocua M1 should serve as the primary nonpathogenic surrogate with the greatest margin of safety in verifying a new thermal process to destroy L. monocytogenes. [source] Effects of Rosemary Extracts on the Reduction of Heterocyclic Amines in Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 8 2006S.Y. Tsen ABSTRACT:, The effects of rosmarinic acid and a rosemary antioxidant powder were evaluated on the reduction and mutagenicity of MeIQx, PhIP, and comutagens norharman and harman in beef patties fried at 375 °F for 5 min each side and 400 °F for 7.5 min each side. Both rosemary extracts were found to effectively decrease the formation and overall mutagenic activity of heterocyclic amines (HCAs) due to their antioxidative characteristics. At the lower temperature, rosmarinic acid was able to reduce MeIQx by up to 64% and PhIP by 48%, while rosemary powder reduced the formations of MeIQx up to 69% and PhIP up to 66%. The effects of the rosemary extracts were more dramatic when cooking temperature and time were increased, as rosmarinic acid was able to reduce MeIQx formation up to 70% and PhIP up to 64%; also, rosemary powder significantly reduced MeIQx up to 57% and PhIP up to 77%. The overall mutagenic activity was evaluated by the Ames Salmonella assay and both rosemary extracts were capable of reducing mutagenicity in beef patties at the higher cooking temperature of 400 °F. At 375 °F there was an insignificant trend of the rosemary extracts decreasing the number of Salmonella revertants. There was no significant inhibiting effect by any of the rosemary extracts on the formation of either norharman and harman as measured in this study. [source] Influence of Cooking Rate, Endpoint Temperature, Post-cook Hold Time, and Myoglobin Redox State on Internal Color Development of Cooked Ground Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 3 2006Suzanne M. Ryan ABSTRACT: Three experiments investigated cooking rate, endpoint temperature, post-cook holding time, and raw myoglobin redox-state effects on ground beef internal cooked color. In Experiment 1, patties were cooked to endpoint temperatures of 65.6°C, 71.1°C, 76.7°C, 82.2°C, or 87.8°C rapidly (1°C/s), slowly (0.2°C/s), or rapidly with 6-min post-cook holding time at 104°C. Patties cooked slowly to less than 76.7°C were more well done (P < 0.05) in appearance than those cooked rapidly. Rapidly-cooked patties cooked to less than 82.2°C and held for 6 min after cooking had less pinkness, more myoglobin denaturation, and a more well-done appearance than did rapidly cooked patties with no holding time (P < 0.05). In Experiment 2, increasing post-cook holding time (1, 3, 6, or 12 min) after rapid cooking to 71.1°C, 76.7°C, or 82.2°C decreased pinkness and increased myoglobin denaturation (P < 0.05), with no benefit beyond 6 min (P > 0.05). In Experiment 3, patties cooked rapidly to 71.1°C, 76.7°C, or 82.2°C from a predominantly raw oxymyoglobin state were less pink and had more denatured myoglobin than did those cooked from a predominantly deoxymyoglobin state (P < 0.05). Prediction equations determined that 80% of myoglobin must be denatured to create a well-done appearance. Using a slow cooking rate, post-cook holding time, or cooking from a highly oxygenated state will increase myoglobin denaturation and foster a well-done appearance. [source] Heat Intensity and Warmed-over Flavor in Precooked Chicken Patties Formulated at 3 Fat Levels and 3 Pepper LevelsJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 9 2005Margaret E. Emrick ABSTRACT: Heat intensity and warmed-over flavor (WOF) were evaluated to determine the effects the composition of precooked, chopped, and formed chicken patties would impart on the perception of red pepper heat and the development of oxidation. Patties were formulated at 5%, 7%, and 9% fat with marinade formulated at 0%, 0.2%, and 0.4% pepper. A trained sensory panel assessed the heat intensity over 3 min using time intensity evaluation. Heat and WOF intensities of the patties were measured 5 times over a 9-wk storage period. As fat level increased, total time intensity and time to maximum heat intensity increased. Patties formulated at 7% and 9% fat were perceived to be more intense in heat than the 5% fat patties. Patties formulated at 0.2% and 0.4% pepper had less intense WOF than patties with 0% pepper level. Chemical measurement of oxidation (thiobarbituric acid numbers) indicated that increasing pepper content decreased malonaldehyde content. Incorporation of pepper into a chopped and formed meat product requires a higher pepper content at lower fat levels to impart the same level of heat intensity as in patties of higher fat level. Increasing the pepper content also will aid in decreasing production of malonaldehyde in a precooked meat product, thereby reducing the intensity of warmed-over flavor as perceived by the consumer. [source] Thermal Inactivation of Salmonella Senftenberg and Listeria innocua in Beef/Turkey Blended Patties Cooked via Fryer and/or Air Convection OvenJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 5 2002R.Y. Murphy ABSTRACT: Beef/turkey blended patties, containing 107 to 108 cfu/g of Salmonella Senftenberg or Listeria innocua, were battered and breaded. The effect of frying (177 °C) and air convection cooking (288 °C) on thermal inactivation of S. Senftenberg and L. innocua was evaluated. A model was obtained to correlate product internal temperature with frying and oven cooking time. Cooking method significantly affected thermal history and subsequently the thermal inactivation of S. Senftenberg and L. innocua. The effect of frying time interacted with oven cooking time. Increasing frying time reduced the oven cooking time. Mathematical models were developed to correlate the survival rate of S. Senftenberg or L. innocua with frying and oven cooking time. [source] Instrumental and Consumer Evaluation of Beef Patties Extended with Extrusion-Textured Whey ProteinsJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 3 2002A. B. Hale ABSTRACT: : We extruded a dry mix of 2 parts whey protein concentrate (80% protein) and 1 part cornstarch using water, 0.1 N HCl, or 0.2 M NaOH as the liquid, or adding calcium (1.69% w/w) to the dry mix with water as the liquid. The functionality and acceptability of textured whey protein (TWP) extrudates was determined. Ground beef patties containing up to 40% (w/w) of hydrated TWP extrudates made with base (TWPbase) were as acceptable to a consumer panel as all beef patties. Additionally, patties containing 40% (w/w) TWPbase incurred less cook loss and less diameter reduction after cooking, but were less cohesive than all beef patties. [source] Fat, wheat bran and salt effects on cooking properties of meat patties studied by response surface methodologyINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 10 2010Hasibe Tekin Summary Response surface methodology was used to investigate the main effects and interactions of composition (processing) variables such as fat (10,30%), wheat bran (5,15%) and NaCl (0,2%) on cooking properties of beef patties. In addition, the ridge analysis was conducted to find the values of processing variables that maximise and minimise the cooking parameters (moisture retention, fat retention, reduction in thickness, reduction in diameter, cooking yield, shrinkage and water-holding capacity). It was found that the moisture and fat retention, reduction in thickness and cooking yield values decreased; however, reduction in diameter and shrinkage values increased, respectively, as the amount of fat increased. However, wheat bran addition increased fat retention, moisture retention, cooking yield and water-holding capacity values of the patties. Increasing NaCl levels decreased water-holding capacity value by its quadratic effect and moisture and fat retention value by its interaction effect with wheat bran. [source] Screening of phytochemicals in fresh lamb meat patties stored in modified atmosphere packs: influence on selected meat quality characteristicsINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 2 2010Ava Isabel Andrés Nieto Abstract This study was carried out to determine the antioxidant activity of phytochemicals and plant extracts in fresh lamb patties. Quality indices such as colour (Hunter L* a* b*), lipid oxidation (TBARS) and pH were measured over an 8-day storage period. Resveratrol, citroflavan-3-ol, olive leaf extract and Echinacea purpurea were added to raw minced M. longissimus dorsi lamb patties, at concentrations ranging from 0,400 mg kg,1 lamb meat, stored in high oxygen modified atmospheres packs (75% O2:25% CO2) for up to 8 days at 4 °C. The pH of the lamb meat was not significantly affected by the addition of the phytochemicals and plant extracts examined (P > 0.05). Resveratrol and citroflavan-3-ol decreased (P < 0.05) lipid oxidation in raw lamb patties during storage and increased a* values (P < 0.05), relative to controls. By contrast, olive leaf extract and Echinacea purpurea did not exhibit antioxidant activity or promote higher a* values relative to controls. Results obtained demonstrate potential for the development of functional meats using plant extracts such as resveratrol and citroflavan-3-ol. [source] Evaluation of pre-heating and extraction solvents in antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of garlic, and their application in fresh pork pattiesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 2 2010Sung Y. Park Summary The objectives of this study were to screen the optimum conditions for antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of garlic as affected by pre-heating and different extraction solvents, and to evaluate the antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of these extracts in ground meat during refrigerated storage. Methanol extracted garlic had a greater total phenolic content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)-radical scavenging activity and reducing power than water extracted one (P < 0.05), whereas the latter had a greater yield and iron chelating ability than the former (P < 0.05). Moreover, water extract from fresh garlic (WEFG) and methanol extract from heated garlic (MEHG) produced an inhibition zone against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes. The addition of garlic extracts (WEFG, MEHG and their combinations WEFMEHG)) to pork patties decreased the pH, hunter a values (redness), thiobarbituric acid substances values and the number of total plate count and Enterobacteriaceae (P < 0.05), while the hunter b values (yellowness) increased (P < 0.05). Results of this study indicated that the use of the garlic extracts was able to control lipid oxidation and microbial growth in pork patties. [source] Comparison of quality and shelf life of buffalo meat patties stored at refrigeration temperatureINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 11 2009Gurunathan Kandeepan Summary Scientific investigation on the quality changes of processed meat products will boost and sustain the meat production and utilization in buffalo abundant countries. A programme was undertaken to compare the quality of buffalo meat patties made from intensively reared young male, semi extensively reared spent male and female groups and stored at refrigeration temperature (4 ± 1 °C). Buffalo meat patties were evaluated for shelf life attributes by analysing the changes in physicochemical, microbiological and sensory attributes. The overall acceptability of patties was better in spent buffalo group than young male group. Increasing storage time resulted in significantly higher pH, TBARS, total aerobic mesophils, coliforms, Staphylococcus aureus and psychrophilic counts but decreased appearance, flavour, juiciness, tenderness, connective tissue residue and overall acceptability scores of buffalo meat patties. The patties were well acceptable within 20 days in young male group and 25 days in spent buffalo group respectively during refrigerator storage. [source] Physicochemical, textural, sensory characteristics and storage stability of goat meat patties extended with full-fat soy paste and soy granulesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 3 2008Arun K. Das Summary The performance of full-fat soy paste (FFSP) with reduced beany flavour made by simple processing technology was compared with the commercially available textured soy granules in goat meat patties. Addition of soy proteins (soy paste and soy granules) did not significantly affect the emulsion stability and product yield. Shrinkage of patties with soy paste was comparable with control. A significant (P < 0.05) reduction in redness and increase in yellowness of patties was due to addition of soy proteins than in control. Patties with soy paste had comparable but slightly higher total lipid and cholesterol content with that of control but significantly (P < 0.05) higher than patties with soy granules. Lower force was required to compress or shear the sample, as hardness decreased in soy-added patties. Flavour and overall acceptability scores between control and patties with soy paste did not differ significantly, whereas patties with soy granules were rated significantly lower. The patties remained stable with minor changes in physicochemical, microbiological and sensory quality during refrigerated storage (4 ± 1 °C) for 20 days. It is concluded from this study that FFSP had potential application similar to commercially available textured soy granules in comminuted meat products. [source] Effect of egg proteins on the quality and refrigerated storage life of chicken patties made with broiler-spent hen meat and by-products,INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 5 2007A. Kalaikannan Summary The effects of whole egg powder (WEP), dried albumen (DA), dried yolk (DY) at a 1% level and liquid egg (LE) at a 3.7% level on the quality characteristics and refrigerated storage (4 ± 1 °C) stability of chicken patties made with meat and by-products of broiler-spent hens were evaluated. The addition of egg powders significantly enhanced the emulsion stability (ES) and product yield compared with control and LE. There was a marked increase in moisture content and sensory attributes by the addition of egg powders. During the refrigerated storage (4 ± 1 °C), thio-barbituric acid number (TBARS), aerobic plate count (APC) and psychrophilic count increased in all samples. Incorporation of DA and DY significantly reduced the TBARS number and APC during the storage over control. The addition of DA, DY and WEP significantly lowered the psychrophilic counts. Treated and control patties packaged in LDPE (low-density polyethylene) pouches were acceptable for 20 days and 15 days, respectively. [source] RELATIONSHIPS of PHYSICAL PROPERTIES of FAT-SUBSTITUTES, COOKING METHODS and FAT LEVELS WITH QUALITY of GROUND BEEF PATTIESJOURNAL OF FOOD PROCESSING AND PRESERVATION, Issue 2 2000J. JU Ground beef patties containing 2 fat levels (5%, 10%), and 3 fat-substitutes (LeanBind, Rice* Complete 3, and Sta-Slim 171) were processed using 3 cooking methods (microwave, roasting, and pan-frying). Correlation analyses between patty quality and the physical properties of the fat-substitutes, as well as the composition of both raw and cooked patties were conducted. Regression models of patty quality parameters as functions of the physical properties of the fat-substitutes, and as the function of the patty composition were developed. This work demonstrated that the fat-substitutes can be evaluated based on regression models relating patty quality to the physical properties of the fat-substitutes. [source] SENSORY EVALUATION OF BROILED AND GRILLED BISON PATTIES BY TRAINED PANELISTS,JOURNAL OF FOOD QUALITY, Issue 4 2001JAYNE M. McCLENAHAN ABSTRACT Sensory characteristics of broiled and grilled patties from grain-fed bison were evaluated by a 13-member trained sensory panel. Ground patties (approximately 113 g, 12.2 cm diameter, 0.9 cm thick) from 6 grinding dates were broiled (260C) or grilled (163C) to 71C internal temperature. Cooking time was significantly shorter (p < 0.0001) for grilled than broiled patties, while cooking yields were similar. Broiled patties were judged to have a more gray than brown surface color, a more red than gray interior color, to be more juicy, and to be more tender than grilled, while their aromatic and flavor intensities were similar. [source] STRATEGIES FOR PROLONGING THE SHELF LIFE OF MINCED BEEF PATTIESJOURNAL OF FOOD SAFETY, Issue 1 2009MATTEO ALESSANDRO DEL NOBILE ABSTRACT The study of different strategies for prolonging the shelf life of fresh minced beef patties was addressed in this work. Fresh minced beef was supplemented with thymol (THY) at levels of 250, 500 and 750 mg per kg of ground beef. Treated samples were packed using a high barrier film and stored in refrigerated conditions (4C) under ordinary atmosphere packaging and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) conditions for 16 days. The microbiological quality decay kinetic was determined by monitoring the following microorganisms: Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp., lactic acid bacteria, Brochothrix thermosphacta, coliforms and total psychrotrophic viable count. Results show that THY, working alone, was effective on coliforms and Enterobacteriaceae, whereas it does not seem to inhibit to a great extent the growth of the other microbial populations. On the other hand, an increased amount of THY, under MAP conditions, had better effects on the product quality, with a consequent prolongation of the shelf life. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Great interest is developing in food bio-preservation, because of the ever-increasing needs to protect consumers' health and to valorize the naturalness and safety of food products. However, very few works have been carried out on the applications of bio-preservatives to extend the shelf life of fresh meat products. This study, therefore, was mainly initiated to evaluate the possibility of extending the shelf life of packed fresh meat patties by a combination of thymol (THY) to other extrinsic factors such as storage temperatures and modified atmosphere during packaging. Interesting results were obtained suggesting that THY can perform an efficient synergy with modified atmosphere conditions and could be advantageously utilized by the meat industry. [source] Process Optimization and Consumer Acceptability of Salted Ground Beef Patties Cooked and Held Hot in Flavored MarinadeJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 7 2010Subash Shrestha Abstract:, Food safety is paramount for cooking hamburger. The center must reach 71 °C (or 68 °C for 15 s) to assure destruction of,E. coli,O157:H7 and other food pathogens. This is difficult to achieve during grilling or frying of thick burgers without overcooking the surface. Thus, the feasibility of partially or completely cooking frozen patties in liquid (93 °C water) together with hot holding in liquid was investigated. Initial studies demonstrated that compared to frying, liquid cooking decreased (P,< 0.05) patty diameter (98 compared with 93 mm) and increased (P,< 0.05) thickness (18.1 compared with 15.6 mm). Liquid cooked patties had greater weight loss (P,< 0.05) immediately after cooking (29 compared with 21%), but reabsorbed moisture and were not different from fried patties after 1 h hot water holding (61 °C). Protein and fat content were not affected by cooking method. However, liquid cooked patties were rated lower (P,< 0.05) than fried patties for appearance (5.7 compared with 7.5) and flavor (5.9 compared with 7.5). An 8-member focus group then evaluated methods to improve both appearance and flavor. Salted, grill-marked patties were preferred, and caramel coloring was needed in the marinade to obtain acceptable flavor and color during liquid cooking or hot holding. Patties with 0.75% salt that were grill-marked and then finish-cooked in hot marinade (0.75% salt, 0.3% caramel color) were rated acceptable (P,< 0.05) by consumers for up to 4 h hot holding in marinade, with mean hedonic panel ratings > 7.0 (like moderately) for appearance, juiciness, flavor, and texture. Practical Application: Grill-marked and marinade-cooked ground beef patties reached a safe internal cooking temperature without overcooking the surface. Burgers cooked using this method maintained high consumer acceptability right after cooking and for up to 4 h of hot holding. Consumers and foodservice operations could use this method without specialized equipment, and instead use inexpensive and common equipment such as a soup pot or a restaurant steam table. Use of marinades (salt/caramel color or others) in this cooking and holding method provides a nearly endless culinary flavoring opportunity. [source] Inclusion of Blended Lipid Solutions as Functional Ingredients to Alter the Fatty Acid Profile of Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 7 2010A.C. Lowder Abstract:, Beef patties formulated to contain beef fat, plant oil, and a rosemary extract to increase unsaturated fatty acid content and maintain desirable sensory attributes were compared to control beef patties formulated without plant oils. Treatment patties were formulated to a fat content of 10% or 20% by combining beef trimmings (6% fat) with 4% or 14% addition of a lipid blend. Blends contained 57% beef tallow, 0.3% rosemary extract, and 43% of high oleic safflower oil (SO), olive oil (OO), or corn oil (CO). Lipid oxidation, as measured by TBA values, of treatment patties were similar to control patties after 0 and 3 d of refrigerated (2 °C) storage and up to 56 d of frozen (,10 °C) storage. Cooked lipid blend patties having a fat content of 10% or 20% were similar to or higher than control patties for juiciness and were no different for other sensory attributes evaluated. At fat levels of 10% or 20%, oleic acid (18: 1) in cooked SO patties (46.1% and 50.3%, respectively) and OO patties (43.8% and 48.1%, respectively) was higher than the control (37.3% and 37.6%, respectively). Unsaturated to saturated fatty acid ratios at the 10% or 20% fat levels were higher in SO (1.37 and 1.60, respectively) and CO (1.40 and 1.48, respectively) patties than the control (0.97 and 0.94, respectively). Beef patties manufactured with varying lipid blends increased unsaturated fatty acid content and were similar in physical characteristics and sensory attributes of all beef patties formulated without lipid blends. Practical Application:, The development of healthier beef products that will be more appealing to consumers has long been an industry goal. The authors believe that lipid blends such as the one used in this study could be used to create such products, not only in the form of beef patties, but any number of processed meat products. Because the materials and equipment used to create the lipid blends in this study are widely available, their incorporation into meat products would represent a small capital investment. This is an important factor in bringing a reasonably priced, healthier product to consumers. [source] Use of Lysozyme, Nisin, and EDTA Combined Treatments for Maintaining Quality of Packed Ostrich PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 3 2010Marianna Mastromatteo ABSTRACT:, The antimicrobial effectiveness of lysozyme, nisin, and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) combination treatments (Mix1: 250 ppm lysozyme, 250 ppm nisin, 5 mM EDTA; Mix2: 500 ppm lysozyme, 500 ppm nisin, 5 mM EDTA) on bacterial growth of ostrich patties packaged in air, vacuum, and 2 different modified atmospheres (MAP1: 80% O2, 20% CO2; MAP2: 5% O2, 30% CO2, 65% N2) was evaluated. Moreover, the lipid oxidation was evaluated as well as color and sensory characteristics. The growth of total viable counts and lactic acid bacteria were strongly inhibited by the antimicrobial treatments in all the running time (Inhibition Index >97%) whereas for Enterobacteriaceae,and Pseudomonas,spp. lower inhibition indices from 12% to about 28% were observed. The lipid oxidation was more pronounced in the control respect to the treated meat patties. Moreover, the mixture at low concentration of lysozyme and nisin showed the best antioxidative effect. High concentrations of lysozyme and nisin showed the greatest color loss. Also, off-odors for the untreated patties developed faster than the treated samples. Practical Application: Great interest is developing in food bio-preservation, because of the ever-increasing needs to protect consumers' health and to valorize the naturalness and safety of food products. [source] Effects of Various Fiber Additions on Lipid Digestion during,In Vitro,Digestion of Beef PattiesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 9 2009S.J. Hur ABSTRACT:, The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of various fiber additions on lipid digestion during the,in vitro,digestion of beef patties. The control patties were prepared with 90.5% lean meat and 9.5% tallow. Treatments consisted of 90% lean meat with 9.5% tallow and either 0.5% cellulose, 0.5% chitosan, or 0.5% pectin. The beef patties were then passed through an,in vitro,digestion model that simulated the composition of the mouth, stomach, and small intestine juices. The change in structure and properties of the lipid droplets was monitored by laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy. In general, there was a decrease in lipid droplet diameter as the droplets moved from mouth to stomach to small intestine. The amount of free fatty acid dramatically increased after,in vitro,digestion in all beef patties. The amount of free fatty acid was, however, lower in beef patties containing chitosan and pectin than other beef patties after,in vitro,digestion. Beef patties containing various fibers had lower thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) values than samples with no fibers. Among the samples to which fibers were added, chitosan and pectin had lower TBARS than beef patties with cellulose. The cholesterol content decreased after,in vitro,digestion in all beef patties but was not different among the beef patties before and after,in vitro,digestion. These results enhance our understanding of the physicochemical and structural changes that occur to ground beef within the gastrointestinal tract. [source] Reduction of Oil Absorption in Deep-Fried, Battered, and Breaded Chicken Patties Using Whey Protein Isolate as a Postbreading Dip: Effect on Flavor, Color, and TextureJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 1 2009E. Mah ABSTRACT:, The effect of the application of whey protein isolate (WPI) solution as a postbreading dip to reduce oil absorption in deep-fried, battered, and breaded chicken patties on sensory properties was investigated. Chicken patties were battered, breaded with either crackermeal (CMP) or Japanese breadcrumbs (JBP), and dipped into WPI solutions at varying protein concentrations (0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%[w/w] WPI) and pH levels (pH 2, 3, and 8). A trained descriptive sensory panel evaluated the patties for 16 attributes relating to appearance, texture, and flavor. Instrumental analysis on the color and texture of the patties was also performed. The only perceivable changes in treated patties were related to color, hardness, and crunchiness. Increasing WPI concentration caused darkening of JBP but made CMP lighter. Patties treated at pH 8 were significantly darker across all WPI concentrations. The presence of WPI increased hardness and crust fracture for CMP but not JBP. Variations in pH levels did not affect texture. Thus, JBP that showed the highest lipid reduction (10% WPI at pH 2) were observed to be darker, less yellow, but did not produce any perceivable changes in hardness or crunchiness, while CMP with the lowest lipid content (5% WPI at pH 2) were lighter, more yellow, harder, and crunchier.
