Abstract: | Beef semitendinosus roasts were cooked in a forced-air convection oven using conventional or modeled, multi-stage cooking. Conventional cooking was defined as cooking at 163°C to a core endpoint of 65°C. The model method was developed using a finite difference heat and mass transfer model optimized for a three-stage cooking process that included preheating, holding, and finishing. Model cooking resulted in lower (P<0.05) Warner–Bratlzer peak shear force values than conventional cooking (3.3 vs 4.7 kg). Collagen total unaltered fraction was lower (44 vs 55%, P=0.05) and enzyme labile fraction was higher (56 vs 45%, P<0.05) in the model-cooked samples than in conventionally cooked samples. The three-stage cooking process results in a more tender product without adversely affecting product yield. |
