Consumer evaluation of beef of known categories of tenderness.

Abstract: A study was conducted to determine consumer perceptions of beef top loin steaks of known shear force and to evaluate how buying trends were modified by the tenderness and price variations of these steaks. Strip loins were cut into a 2.54-cm-thick steaks, and the center steak from each strip loin was used to determine Warner-Bratzler shear force. The remaining steaks were placed into one of the following shear force categories based on that shear force and color-coded accordingly: 1) 2.27 to 3.58 kg (Red); 2) 4… Show more

“…Wheeler et al (1990) reported that blade tenderization improves tenderness in Brahman and Hereford beef cattle slaughtered at less than 18 months of age by decreasing shear force values and improving consumers' sensory response to myofibrillar tenderness and connective tissue amount. Boleman et al (1997) and Savell and Shackelford (1992) found that tenderness was the primary economic factor for beef palatability. Although palatability is a complex interaction of tenderness, juiciness, and flavour, tenderness had been found to change significantly (P<0.05%) for all the treatments.…”

“…Boleman et al (1997) stated that consumers were willing to pay a premium for beef that was guaranteed tender. Because of the large tenderness inconsistencies between carcasses, muscles, and locations within a muscle, enhancement procedures have been developed to create more consistent products and upgrade others.…”

“…Consumers have reportedly been willing to pay more as tenderness increases (Boleman et al,1997). In this study, enhanced treatments were scored greater for overall liking, partially due to tenderness, which can explain differences in willingness to pay between enhanced and non-enhanced Honduran treatments.…”
