Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effects of oven temperature (93, 121, 149, or 163°C) and state (thawed or frozen) on 64 loin roasts from 8 pigs were studied. Frozen roasts required 1.3 times longer to cook, were more juicy and acceptable, and contained more moisture than thawed roasts. Roasting at 121°C produced the least losses and no difference in meat palatability from the higher oven temperatures. The 93°C oven temperature produced the least juicy but the most tender muscle with the longest cooking times and highest losses. Animals were the largest source of variance in 14 of the 19 cooking and palatability traits studied.
