A continuous injector-baster device of embodiments of the disclosed technology includes at least one hollow and coiled tube through which liquid is heated and flows into a food product, as well as at least one spray head through while liquid is sprayed on the same food product. A pump circulates the liquid through the hollow and coiled tube and sprays it from the spray head.

Systems and methods for providing food intervention, pumping up, and tenderization are discussed. While such systems can include any suitable component, in some cases, they include a needleless spray nozzle head that injects injectade into food without requiring the head to contact the food. In some cases, the head comprises an elongated needleless spray bar that defines multiple internal fluid channels that extend from a first end to a second end of the spray bar. In some cases, the head comprises a manifold system with a first manifold portion at the first end and a second manifold portion at the second end of the spray bar. In some cases, the first manifold portion directs the injectade towards the second end, and the second manifold portion directs the injectade towards the first end of the elongated needleless spray bar. Other implementations are described.

The present invention relates to a method of co-culturing Inonotus obliquus, Ganoderma lucidum, and Phellinus linteus. The co-cultured mycelia prepared through the method of the present invention have high beta-glucan content and thus can exhibit superior health functionality, and can be used as an additive or a cooking seasoning in various foods. In addition, the use of the co-cultured mycelia in curing raw meat enables easy preparation of a meat-based food product that has a good taste and flavor.

A handheld injector is provided for injecting liquid, such as flavoring or basting material, into meat or poultry. The injector includes a pistol-shaped housing which encloses a battery-powered motor for constant-rate delivery of liquid from a peristaltic pump. The injector also includes a fluid conduit within the housing through which liquid is pumped from a reservoir of liquid to a needle for injection into the meat.

The present disclosure discloses a method for improving tenderness of raw meat and meat products by mechanical vibration. In the method, the raw meat is vibrated to loosen meat tissue and improve meat tenderness, or is vibrated during curing to reduce curing time while improving the tenderness. The method mechanically vibrates the raw meat to loosen the structure of the raw meat, and ultimately improves the meat tenderness; or vibrates during curing to improve the tenderness while reducing the curing time, effectively ensuring the sensory meat quality. The method of the present disclosure not only effectively solves the problem of the tenderness of meat and meat products, but also improves sensory quality and safety thereof, enables wider popularization and utilization of meat and meat products, and directly increases economic benefits of enterprises and opens up a new way for future development thereof.

The present invention is a processing device, such as a macerator for use in processing various types of food products, that includes an automatic adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of a roller disposed within the macerator. The mechanism includes a controller operably connected to a motor that can move the roller within the macerator to vary the position of the roller with respect to another roller located in the macerator. Inputs to the controller are used to control the operation of the motor to move the roll into a desired configuration associated in a storage medium in the controller with a particular food product to be processed. The input to the controller can also be used to simultaneously adjust the position of other components of other processing devices in a food processing system, such as an injector to remove the need for individually adjust each device in the system. Also, the controller can utilize other devices on the macerator to dynamically adjust the position of the rollers in response to the individual food products being treated in the macerator.
