Abstract

ABSTRACTLoin chops from 60 pork carcass sides were utilized to evaluate the influences of frozen storage and protective storage wrap upon factors contributing to the retail case‐life of thawed chops. The composite results of this study indicated that pork loin chops could be frozen and stored for 168 days or less at −30° C and have a retail case‐life of at least 6 days, under the conditions employed in the present study. The possible exception is an amount of drip in the packages of chops stored in certain protective wraps which may be unacceptable when displayed for prolonged periods.
