Abstract
- Muscle profiling improves value and optimization of beef carcasses by expanding knowledge of physical, com-positional, and marketable attributes of single-muscle cuts. Extensive profiling for individual muscle portions of the NAMI #184 beef top sirloin butt remains understudied. The objective was to compare fluid loss, objective color (L*, a*, b*), pH,and objective tenderness of the biceps femoris (BF), gluteus accessorius (GA), gluteus medius, dorsal (GMD), and gluteus medius, ventral (GMV). Beef top sirloin butts (N=70) were collected from carcasses ranging in quality grade (USDA Select and Top Choice), hot carcass weight (light≤362 kg, medium=363 to 453 kg, heavy≥454 kg), and ribeye area (REA; small≤27.8 cm2, medium=27.9 to 40.6 cm2, large≥40.7 cm2). Warner-Bratzler shear force values were the low-est for the BF and GA (P
