Abstract
An improved method of marinating and reconstituting meat from trims of fish, poultry, pork, beef or the like comprises the steps of freezing the trims, adding marinade to the frozen trims and compressing the frozen trims to a sufficient pressure to lower the freezing point below the temperature of the frozen trims such that the marinade is diffused through the trims and purge is formed on the outer surface of the trims so as to hold the trims together.
Claims16
A method of producing a frozen marinated reconstituted meat product, comprising the steps of:
- a. freezing trims from meat;
- b. adding marinade to the frozen trims;
- and
- c. compressing and marinating the frozen trims with an external pressure to enable the marinade to diffuse through the trims and to form purge on the outer surface of the trims so as to hold the trims together.
A method of reconstituting and marinating meat from trims, comprising the steps of:
- a. freezing trims from meat;
- b. adding marinade to the frozen trims;
- c. configuring the frozen trims and marinade to form a preselected shape;
- and d. compressing and marinating the configured trims at a temperature between about 0° and about 15° F. under a pressure between about 200 and about 1,500 psi for a time period between about 6 and 60 seconds such that the marinade is diffused through the trims and purge is formed on the outer surface of the trims so as to hold the trims together.
A method of producing a frozen, reconstituted and marinated microwaveable meat product comprising the steps of:
- a. freezing trims from meat;
- b. adding marinade to the frozen trims;
- c. configuring the frozen trims and the marinade to form a preselected shape;
- d. compressing and marinating the configured trims such that the marinade is diffused through the trims and purge is formed on the outer surface of the trims so as to hold the trims together;
- e. cutting the compressed trims into portions having desired size and weight at temperature below the freezing point at the atmosphere pressure of the compressed trims;
- and
- f. searing the outside of the cut portions briefly so that the core of the cut portions remains frozen.
