Abstract

Sheep and lamb meat are in the first place by value, as sheep raising products. Sensory properties are important factor that influence on the meat safety. The aim of these investigations was to determine the influence of ripening level on odour, tenderness, softness, taste, flavor and overall acceptability of meat. As material in this experiment meat of lambs of 'Svrljig- Pirot Pramenka' hybrids were used. Lambs were 5 months old at slaughtering. Meat was roasted in oven at temperature of 170?C for 60 minutes. As method the quantitative-descriptive analysis is used. Our results showed that meat ripening level influence on the acceptability of lamb meat and on expressiveness of some attributes that closer define sensory properties of meat (intensity, odour, tenderness, softness, taste and flavour).
