Abstract

ABSTRACT This study was intended to characterize six types of commercial smoked chicken products in China by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), odor-activity values (OAVs), and sensory evaluation. Results demonstrated that a total of 89 components were identified in all samples, and 34 were considered as odor-active compounds because their OAVs were greater than one. Liaocheng Chicken that smoked with fruit tree sawdust had more phenols, which contributed to the smoky aroma. Jinshan and Goubangzi Chicken that smoked with sugar had more furans which contributed the overall odor with sweety and caramel aroma. Zhuozishan and Laoting Chicken that smoked with sugar and wood chips had similar flavor and volatile compounds. Tengqiao Chicken that smoked with sugar, tea and rice had significant difference with other chicken in smoky, bittern and caramel aroma (P< .05). The diversity of these smoked chicken flavors was mainly due to the cooking culture differences.
