4. Protein Fabrication 4 Meat-Definition The flesh of furred land animals

5. Protein Fabrication 5 Meat-Definition Beef Meat from cattle (usually steers) raised for such purpose (slaughtered between Veal Meat from young male cattle born to female dairy cows

6. Protein Fabrication 6 Breeds Scottish Highland – for Grazing Wagyu Black Angus Hereford

7. Protein Fabrication 7 Meat is composed of  72 % water  20 % protein  7 % fat  1 % minerals.

8. Protein Fabrication 8 Muscle composition Why some cuts tender and some are tough.

9. Protein Fabrication 9 How can you tell a tender cut from a tough one before cooking?  Location on carcass dictates tough or tenderness from actual muscle usage.  Length of fibers short= tender long and stringy=tough  Amount of intramuscular fat or marbling.

19. Protein Fabrication 19 Primal cuts

20. Protein Fabrication 20 There are 8 primal cuts according to the National Livestock and Meat Board  Eight Primal Cuts of Beef: chuck rib short loin sirloin round brisket/shank short plate flank

21. Protein Fabrication 21 Veal there are 7 primal cuts according to the National Livestock and Meat Board  Seven Primal Cuts of Veal: shoulder rib loin sirloin leg breast/shank flank

22. Protein Fabrication 22 After Primal Cuts  Sub primal cuts Subprimal cuts are cut from a primal down to a more manageable size.  Fabricated cuts Even smaller cuts for foodservice, such as roasts, steaks, chops, cutlets, stewing meats, ground meat and so forth as set forth by the IMPS/NAMPS specifications.

23. Protein Fabrication 23 Purchasing meats  Getting value Specifications Size Weight Quality grade Yield grade portion size or NAMPS

24. Protein Fabrication 24 Purchasing meats  Deliveries: Check specifications Check weight Check condition Check state Store properly  Wrapped to prevent burn Vapor proof wrapping to prevent freezer burn. Label and date. Keep less than 6 months if fatty cut/type – fat oxidation
