Makeup of Meat

1. Muscle• Muscle fibers• Protein-rich• Grain- lengthwise direction of muscle • Cut against the grain

Page 3: Meats. Makeup of Meat 1. Muscle Muscle fibers Protein-rich Grain- lengthwise direction of muscle Cut against the grain

2. Connective tissue- protein material that binds muscle together into bundles & anchors muscle to bone• Collagen- thin, white, transparent-softens into

gelatin• Elastin- tough, elastic, yellowish- can’t be

softened by heat

3. Fat- Invisible/visible • Invisible: chemical composition• Visible- layer around the cut of meat• marbling

B. Ground

• Differences in ground meat is the fat content• 30% - hamburger• 15-20% - chuck• Below 15% is lean
