It provdes a satsfactory means for obtanng porton control due to the relatve unform shape and smallness of the rb bones. Four rbs per mltary man s a most satsfactory servng sze. At the request of the Defense Personnel Support Center, the subsstence procurement arm for the Mltary Servces, ths study was made to determne whether sparerbs weghng more than three pounds would be as acceptable n mltary food servce as those presently beng served.

10 ää! P ABSTRACT The overall consumer acceptance of three pound and fve pound sparerbs was not sgnfcantly dfferent. When consderng tenderness alone, however, the three pound sparerbs were consdered sgnfcantly (jf> level) more tender than the fve pound sparerbs. The acceptance dfferences among anatomcal postons wthn three and fve pound sparerbs were found to be nsgnfcant. It s nterestng to note that when the rb bones are removed from the sparerbs pror to servng, that the sensory scores tend tc be hgher than the sensory scores of the sparerbs served wth the bones n the customary manner. Boneless yeld of cooked sparerbs was k6.6 percent for the three pound sparerbs and *2.8 percent for the fve pound sparerbs. Total cookng losses for three and fve pound sparerbs were 25*5 and 3» percent respectvely. Fat drp loss of cooked sparerbs was 0.6 percent larger for the fve pound sparerbs. Bone yeld was.8 percent greater for the three pound sparerbs. The results of ths study ndcate that mltary nterest n the procurement of pork sparerbs weghng three to fve pounds should be based prmarly on economc and avalablty consderatons. v

11 INTRODUCTION The mltary servces presently serve pork sparerbs weghng three pounds or less n ther dnng facltes«ths weght has provded an acceptable menu tem from both the preparaton and consumpton standponts. The contnued relance on ths weght range for sparerbs could result n lmtatons n terms of avalablty and cost- If heaver weght sparerbs, on the other hand, prove to be acceptable for troop feedng, the effect would, n all probablty, be to reduce raw materal costs by provdng a broader supply base» Ths study was undertaken at the request of the Defense Personnel Support Center to determne consumer acceptance, edble yeld and cookng losses of three and fve pound sparerbs. Addtonal meat yeld and cookng loss nformaton was obtaned from sparerbs n the weght range two to eght pounds <> The effects of physochemcal and processng varables on the eatng qualtes of dfferent skeletal muscles from dfferent speces of meat anmals have been the subject of extensve study 0 However, the major muscles of the wholesale sparerb (external and nternal ntercostal muscles) have receved lmted study. Hammond et al. (932), McMeekan (9^0 a,b) and Carpenter et al. (963) reported that older anmals produced muscle fbers of larger dameter. Wth an ncrease n the muscle fber dameter of pork, Carpenter et al. (9^3) observed a decrease n the tenderness of the cooked longssmus dors. Porcne tenderness was found by Kauffman et al. (96^) to" decrease as the age of anmals ncreased from 32 to 282 days. Palmer (I963) reported that age accounted for only k percent of the varaton n the tenderness of cattle rangng between 5 and 99 months of age. Alsmeyer et al. (959) found that chronologcal age and tenderness were postvely correlated. Zegler (958) wrote that as carcass weght ncreased from 39 to 97 pounds, the percent of edble meat from sparerbs ncreased. Usborne et al. (968) found no sgnfcant dfference n tenderness of the longssmus dors muscle as the lve weght of hogs ncreased from 73 kg. to 27 kg. Flavor, jucness, and overall acceptance showed hgher panel scores for ths rausele from the lghter weght hogs. Tuomy et al. (966) reported that the longssmus dors muscle from pork lons n weght ranges twelve pounds and down to twenty pounds and up showed less tenderness as the lon weght ncreased. Flavor dfferences were not observed n the dfferent weght lons. Tenderness varatons found wthn dfferent p.; rene muscles have been reported by Wer (l953)> Batcher et al. (960), Rupnow et al. (96) and Alsmeyer et al. (965)0 Saffle et al. Tl959) and Murphy et al. X96) concluded that drp loss was drectly related to backfat thckness. Feld et al. (96) reported a sgnfcantly lower cookng loss from lons of lghter weght hogs whch was attrbuted to less renderng of fat.

12 am MATERIALS AND METHODS A prelmnary study was made to determne whether varatons n tenderness, flavor and odor exst wthn the wholesale sparerb due to dfferences n anatomcal locaton. For ths work ten three pound and ten fve pound (- t pound) frozen sparerbs were utlzed. The sparerbs were thawed at 50 F. for kq hours. The sparerbs were then trmmed free of surface fat exceedng $ nch, and the dense connectve tssue (Centrum tendneus) was separated from the fleshy daphragm muscle (Pars costals). All sparerbs were dvded nto anteror., medal and posteror portons (Fgure l). The anteror porton was separated from the medal porton between the thrd and fourth rbs whle the medal and posteror portons were dvded between the seventh and eghth rbs. The anatomcal separatons of the three portons were cut wth reference to the number of rb bones n the wholes le sparerb. Each porton *ras dentfed as to ts orgnal sparerb weght and anatomcal poston. The sparerb portons were brased n "square-head" cookng par.s measurng approxmately 20 nches x l6 nches x 6 nches to whch one quart of water was added. Portons were brased at 375 F» to an nternal temperature of 75 F» The three anatomcal portons of both three and fve pound sparerbs were cut nto one rb servngs for preference scorng. Seventeen panelsts, usng the hedonc scale outlned by Peryam et al. (l957)> evaluated tenderness, flavor and odor for each anatomcal locaton wthn each weght group. A second study was made to nvestgate consumer preference, cookng yeld, and cookng loss dfferences between three and fve pound sparerbs. The sparerbs were thawed, trmmed and cooked n the same manner reported n the prelmnary study, except that the sparerbs were not cut nto anatomcal portons. Thrty-two three pound and sxteen fve pound sparerbs were cooked n all. At the end of the brasng perod, weghts of the cooked sparerbs, fa drppngs, and bone from each weght group were separately measured and recorded. Snce the vsual effect of bone present n the larger sparerbs was suspected to be a psychologcal nfluence on the preference evaluaton, the sparerb meat of each weght category was sensory evaluated wth and wthout the rb and sternum bones. When served to the taste panel wth bone-n, the sparerbs were dvded nto the customary servng weght (2 ounces) recommended by the U.S. Army-Ar Force Master Menu Board. Ths amounted to a k rb servng for the three pound sparerbs and a 2 rb servng for the fve pound sparerbs. For an evaluaton of the boneless three and fve pound sparerb meat, 2 ounce portons were served to each panelst. The taste panel conssted of 30 members. Bone-n three and fve pound sparerbs were evaluated on one day whle the boneless sparerbs were evaluated on the followng day. Product characterstcs whch panel members evaluated were: (l) tenderness, (2) flavor, (3) odor and (^)overall preference of the product. Preference data were analyzed by a test of sgnfcance usng the t-test as dscussed by Snedecor (956).

13 tmm MrtNWMna.^. Cookng yelds and losses were more extensvely nvestgated "by a thrd study. For ths study forty-eght sparerbs rangng n raw weght from two to eght pounds were cooked. Agan, the sparerbs were thawed, trmmed and cooked n the same manner reported n the prelmnary study. Pror to cookng, the raw weght of each sparerb was recorded. Alumnum fol contaners, each holdng one sparerb, were placed n "square head" pans and brased at an oven temperature of 375 F. Upon reachng an nternal temperature of 70 F., the sparerbs were removed from the oven and weghed. Cooked sparerbs were then cooled to 40 F, and the drp loss and bone weghts were recorded. All weghts were made to the nearest whole gram.

15 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The results of the prelmnary study contanng preferences scores of seventeen panelsts are presented n Table «An analyss of ths data, from the three and fve pound sparerbs ndcated no sgnfcant dfference for tenderness, flavor and odor exsted between the dfferent anatomcal locatonso Based on these results, the entre sparerb was utlzed n the second study, Table 2 contans the mean preference scores from the second study. The overall consumer preference of three pound and fve pound sparerbs was not sgnfcantly dfferent. However, the tenderness scores of the three pound sparerbs were sgnfcantly {$% level) greater than the tenderness scores of the fve pound sparerbs. Flavor a^d odor scores were not sgnfcantly dfferent. All mean preference scores were above the mnmum acceptable level of 6.0, except for the tenderness scores of fve pound sparerbs whch was borderlned at 5.8 and 6., Durng the study, the nvestgators noted that the rb bones of the fve pound sparerbs were much larger n sze than those of the three pound sparerbs and were thought to be objectonable from an aesthetc standpont» Thus the sparerb meat was presented to panelsts wth and wthout rb bone. The panel results show that the sensory scores tend to be hgher when the rb bones are removed before servng. Ths s academc at ths tme however, snce sparerbs are customarly served wth rb bones. Presented n Table 3 are the cookng yelds and losses of three and fve pound sparerbs«the yeld of edble meat from the cooked three pound sparerb was 3.8$ greater than that from the fve pound sparerbs, Tne bone yeld was.8$ greater for the bhree pound sparerbs. These fndngs agree wth those of Cuthfeertson et al. (962) who found that the percent of total carcass weght represented by the skeleton decreased as the anmal weght ncreasedo The total cookng losses were 5.6$ greater for the fve pound sparerbs, although the fat drp loss was only 0 o 6 percent greater for the fve pound sparerbs. The closeness of the fat loss comparatve results may be explaned by the fact that both weght groups of sparerbs were trmmed to the same \ nch maxmum fat thckness and the greater losses were attrbuted to mosture losses durng cookng and coolng of the sparerbs. In Table * and Fgures -U nclusve, are presented the relatonshps between the raw, bone-n weghts of sparerbs n the range two to eght pounds and the weghts of the sparerbs cooked to 70 F ä, bone weghts, fat cookng loss weghts and total cookng loss weghts respectvely. The correlaton cooeffcent (r) of each of the above relatonshps was found to be hgbly sgnfcant at the percent level of confdence. Ths ndcates

16 mmmmt that reasonably accurate estmates of the dependent varables can be made when the weghts of the raw, bone-n sparerbs are known. I

17 L^ *9» SUMMARY The meat from three pound sparerbs was found to be sgnfcantly (p O.OfO more tender than that of fve pound sparerbs. Ths was the case whether the sparerb meat was served wth or wthout the rbs attached. On the other hand, the overall consumer preference of the three and fve v pound bone-n sparerbs was not sgnfcantly dfferent. Nether were the* flavor or the odor scores sgnfcantly dfferent In each of the three and fve pound sparerb weght groups, there were no sgnfcant dfferences n tenderness, odor or flavor attrbutable to any partcular sparerb area from whch the samples were taken. Edble meat yeld from cooked three pound sparerbs was 3.8^ larger than < A :at of fve pound sparerbs,. The three pound sparerbs also had.8$ greater bone yeld. Fve pound sparerbs showed a 0,6% greater fat cookng loss and a $.6% greater total cookng loss. Regresson equatons and correlaton coeffcents were calculated comparng raw weght of sparerbs wth cooked weght, bone weght, fat cookng losses and total cookng losses. Correlaton coeffcents were 0.99, 0.95, 0.72 and 0.86 respectvely (p 0.0). f>
