  • Title: Effects of subprimal type, quality grade, and aging time on display color of ground beef patties.
    Author: Garner CM, Unruh JA, Hunt MC, Boyle EA, Houser TA.
    Journal: Meat Sci; 2014 Oct; 98(2):301-9. PubMed ID: 24880976.
    Abstract:
    A factorial design was used to evaluate the effects of two subprimal types (chuck roll and knuckle), two quality grades (Premium Choice and Select), and three vacuum-storage aging times before processing (7, 21, and 42d) ground beef patty display color attributes. Patties from chuck roll and Premium Choice subprimals had brighter red visual color scores, less discoloration, and higher L*, a*, b*, and chroma values than those from knuckle and Select subprimals, respectively. With an increased display time, patties became darker red, more discolored, and had decreased L*, a*, b*, and chroma values. Therefore, aging Premium Choice chuck rolls for less time (fewer than 21d) could maximize display color life.
