EVALUATION OF SAUSAGE (PORK AND PORK AND BEEF), PRECOOKED, FORZEN,
Abstract
An investigation of precooked pork and pre cooked pork and beef sausage was conducted to determine their suitability for Navy use. No appreciable differences were found between the products produced by the two packers when com pared to each other for acceptability and average edible cooked yields, nor were any differences found between the two types of precooked sausage (pork and pork and beef). Both types of pre cooked sausage have greater acceptability and greater yields than conventional link sausage. On the basis of their edible cooked yields, both types of precooked sausage saved 27% of the weight required by the conventional, while those of one packer saved 42% in space and the other 22.5%. It was recommended that: (a) both types of precooked sausage (pork and pork and beef) be authorized for Navy use, (b) the precooked links be sized at 18-22 per pound to give the same edible cooked portion weight as the con ventional at the same costs and, (c) the style of packaging which saved 42% stowage space be specified for Navy procurement.
