Muscle Composition
Muscle tissue gives meat its characteristic appearance
The amount of connective tissue determines the meat’s tenderness
Muscle tissue is approximately 72% water, 20% protein, 7% fat and 1% minerals– Proper cooking prevents shrinkage

Muscle Composition (cont.)
A single muscle is composed of bundles of muscle cells or fibers and connective tissue
Meat’s texture id determined by– Thickness of cells– Size of cell bundles– Size of connective tissue

Marbeling
When an animal fattens, some water and protein in lean muscle tissue turns to fat
Marbeling refers to the whitish streaks of inter- and intra-muscular fat– Adds tenderness and flavor to cooked meat– Principal factor in determining meat quality

Connective Tissue in Meat
Forms walls of long muscle cells, primarily in frequently used muscles– Tendons, ligaments
Consists of either collagen or elastin When cooked with moist heat, contracts then
breaks down into water and gelatin– Meat of older animals more resistant to
breaking down using moist heat

Purchasing Meat
Styles of cuts– Primal
Primary divisions of muscle, bone and connective tissue produced by initial butchering of the carcass
– SubprimalBasic cuts produced from each primal
– FabricatedIndividual portions cut from the subprimal

Meat Labeling: Grass-Fed
Most meat animals consume grains for some part of their lives.
Agricultural Marketing Service of the USDA has voluntary standards for the labeling of purely grass-fed meat.– Grass and forage shall be the only feed source
for the lifetime of the animal except for milk consumed prior to weaning.
Range-fed, pastured and pasture-raised

Storing Meat
Meat is highly perishable and a potentially hazardous food
Store at temperatures between 30°F and 35°F When freezing, do so rapidly to –50°F Use moisture- and vapor-proof packaging to
prevent freezer burn

Barding– Adding a layer of fat to the outside of meat
Larding– Inserting small strips of fat into meat

Special Considerations for Large Cuts of Meat Carryover cooking
– Cooking does not stop the moment that the roast is removed from the oven; it continues to cook inward through conduction
Resting– Allows the juices to redistribute themselves evenly
throughout the roast Carving
– Roasts are always carved against the grain; carving with the grain will produce long, stringy, tough slices

Sous Vide Cooking
Low-temperature, moist-heat cooking under vacuum Resembles poaching and braising
– Vacuum seal food in plastic pouches– Cook in a precisely regulated hot water bath, below
simmering– Foods may be browned after cooking
Food safety of utmost concern; local food regulations may require training, licensing and record keeping
