Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the sensory acceptance of loin meat of ram and lambs. Chemical (moisture, ether extract, protein, intramuscular fat and ash) and instrumental (color, pH, cooking loss, shear force and water retention capacity) were analyzed. Samples of this meat were supplied to a consumer panel (n = 46) and evaluated for sensory attributes of aroma, tenderness, taste and overall appreciation. Differences were found for protein concentration, ash, red intensity (a*) and color tone (h*) (P < 0.01). No differences were found between the sensory attributes tested (P > 0.05). Ram meat analyzed showed a sensory appreciation close to lamb meat.
