4 Meat Nutritional Value Need 5 ½ oz of protein each day High in protein
Contain proteins essential for tissue building and repair Good sources of iron, phosphorus, copper, thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin Fat content depends type and quality of the meat Fat means flavor Marbling Small white flecks of fat Red meat is higher in saturated fat Fish and chicken low in fat

5 Meat Beef Comes from cattle over 12 months of age
Distinct flavor and firm texture Usually bright, cherry red in color with creamy white fat

6 Meat Cuts of Meat (p. 511) Muscles receiving little exercise are most tender Rib and loin muscles Tender cuts use dry heat cooking methods Sirloin, porterhouse, loin chops Grill, roast, broiling, etc. Muscles receiving more exercise are less tender Leg and shoulder muscles Less tender cuts use moist heat cooking methods Round steak, rump roast, shoulder steak Stewing or braising

7 Meat Beef carcasses are classified according to age and sex
Cuts of beef (p. 511) Sides of beef Carcass is cut lengthwise through the backbone into 2 halves Quarters of beef Sides of beef are cut in half Wholesale cuts Quarters are cut into smaller pieces Retail cuts Wholesale cuts are cut into smaller pieces for the grocery store Cut of beef worksheet

10 Meat Storage Must be refrigerated
Fresh meats should be used within 3-5 days Ground meats should be used within 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the meat.

11 Meat Cooking Properly cooked Checking for doneness Becomes firm
Fat melts Connective tissue softens Checking for doneness Point at which meat has cooked enough to make it flavorful and safe to eat Use of meat thermometer Reduce risk of food-borne illness

12 Meat Cooking Methods Braising Broiling Pressure Cooking Grilling
Tender cuts Grilling Kabobs Roasting Large tender cuts Loin, rib, leg roasts Frying Tender meat Ground meats, bacon, ham Pan broiling Tender cuts to thin to broil Braising Large, less tender cuts Pot roast Pressure Cooking Slow-Cooking Less tender cuts Microwaving Moist heat method Uniform in shape Will not have crisp, brown crust

13 Poultry Any bird raised for food Most common types
Chicken Turkey Duck Goose Older birds have more fat than young birds Young birds have more tender meat.

14 Poultry Nutritional Value Good source of protein
Provides niacin, Vitamins B6, B12, calcium, phosphorus, iron, and other trace minerals Lower in fat and calories than red meat Remove skin for lower fat poultry Dark vs. White meat Dark meat Contains more fat More flavorful Dark due to the fact the animal uses it more

15 Poultry Storage Refrigerate or freeze immediately after purchase
Watch for juices Use fresh poultry within 1-2 days How to thaw poultry

16 Poultry Cooking Checking for doneness Pink coloration
Placement of thermometer Use an instant-read thermometer for thin pieces Thickest part of meat closest to body Don’t touch bone Pink coloration Chemical reaction occurs between the poultry and gases in the oven

17 Poultry Cooking Methods Frying Broiling Braising Grilling
Usually floured or breaded first to keep from drying out Deep fry, pan fry, or oven fry Braising Any bird too tough to cook with a dry heat method Pressure-Cooking Used for tough, mature birds Slow-Cooking Flavors have time to develop and blend Microwaving Won’t brown Usually cooked in a sauce for favor and color Cooking Methods Broiling Quickest cooking method Grilling Should be grilled until brown but not charred and the inside is well done Roasting Recommended for duck, turkey, and goose Stuffing Recommend cooking stuffing separately
