A reconstructed bacon product includes meat sourced exclusively from pork bellies. The product includes a cohesive mass of compressed layers of pork belly fat trimmings and pork belly lean trimmings of whole muscle segments. A method of forming a reconstructed bacon product includes obtaining pork belly lean trimmings of whole muscle segments and pork belly fat trimmings, macerating the pork belly lean trimmings, layering the pork belly lean trimmings and pork belly fat trimmings, compressing the layers, heat processing the layers in a mold to form a cohesive mass, and demolding the cohesive mass.

A refrigerated food pan cooling device includes a food pan receiving well and a cooling system, wherein the cooling system includes a refrigeration system with a compressor, a condenser, a metering device and an evaporator. The evaporator includes at least one first refrigerant line downstream of the metering device and upstream of the compressor. The first refrigerant line runs along an external surface of at least one of the well walls. The condenser is configured as a hot wall condenser, that lacks any fan or blower, wherein the hot wall condenser includes at least one second refrigerant line downstream of the compressor and upstream of the metering device. The second refrigerant line runs, at least partly, along an internal surface of at least the first exterior sidewall to transfer heat through the first exterior sidewall to ambient air.

A meat product offers a user stable construction with a rod engaging a threaded socket inside at least one bone of the meat portion. The meat product allows the user to steadily hold meat products using the user's hands without touching the meat or requiring any cutting beforehand. Additionally, the meat product can be easily taken apart by disengaging the rod from the threaded socket. The meat product may have multiple rods, thus allowing the user to hold heavy meat products. Each rod may comprise a handle which provides efficient and effective handling, processing, cooking and/or eating. The handle may comprise various shapes and a slip resistant surface that offers the user more secure handling. The meat product can be made individually by the user or manufactured in batches. Thus, the meat product allows the user to achieve a sanitary eating product.

A reduced-scale drum motor roller drive is combined with a rotating enlarged-scale hard drum on the rotation axis of the hard drum. A source of electric power rotates the drum motor roller which thereby rotates the hard drum for tumbling and/or coating service in an automated and/or mechanized food process lines.

The present invention relates to a meat processed food, into which a gel-like material is locally and quantitatively filled. Provided is a method for producing a meat processed food, having a step of cooling a gelling agent solution prepared by adding a gelling agent into water and then heating and dissolving the gelling agent, so as to prepare a gel-like material having fluidity; and a step of filling the gel-like material into a plurality of predetermined positions inside a meat-containing raw material.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compositions comprising rice bran extract, method of making rice bran extract and method of using same.

Food product having a meat-based layer, an impermeable covering layer disposed on the whole surface of a meat-based layer with a first side, a second side and one or more connection edges defined between the first and second sides, a layer of batter that covers only the first side and at least part of connection edges of the meat-based layer, a breaded layer distributed on at least part of the layer of batter, and, in case, a garnish distributed on at least part of the surface of the meat-based layer covered with the impermeable covering layer and left uncovered by the layer of batter and the breaded layer. The invention concerns also the apparatus to make said food product and the corresponding method.

Proposed is a formed meat composition comprising additives, a process for producing a formed meat slug and a combined meat/formed meat slug. It is a disadvantage of established dried formed meat compositions that they require stabilizing desiccants and/or have an unnatural, open-pored fine structure. The novel solution proposed is a formed meat composition which, in addition to prey animal meat, glycerol and salt, merely contains additives in the form of prey animal nutriment. Also proposed is a process for producing a formed meat slug in which a common comminution of meat and additives in a manner modelled on hunting is carried out. Finally proposed is a combined meat/formed meat slug which comprises in its primary constituents only animal meat ingredients and the recited additives. The claimed subject matter provides the particular advantage that, despite additives, a denser, more stable and closed fine structure is achieved.

A breadcrumb coating machine includes a breadcrumb coating unit for spreading and fixing breadcrumbs on the front and rear surfaces of pork. The breadcrumb coating unit has an octagonal frame formed in a regular octagon shape and disposed on an upper surface of a base; a turntable having breadcrumbs dispersed over the surface thereof and configured to rotate on the upper surface of the octagonal frame; first and second scattering units configured to draw the breadcrumbs dispersed on the surface of the turntable and to scatter the same over the upper surface of the pork; and a pressing plate disposed at an interval from the first and second scattering units in a clockwise direction to press the upper surface of the pork, while adjusting a pressure by using a cylinder.

Provided is a starch processed with oil or fat obtainable by processing a composition with oil or fat, in which the composition contains a component (A): starch having a degree of swelling in cold water of higher than 1 and lower than 3.5, a component (B): starch having a degree of swelling in cold water of equal to or higher than 3.5 and equal to or lower than 40, a component (C): edible oil or fat, and a component (D): a protein material, and a mixing amount of the component (B) with respect to 100 parts by mass of the component (A) in the composition is equal to or greater than 0.03 parts by mass and equal to or smaller than 7 parts by mass.
