The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1. Cut meats were not significantly affected by methionine levels. But the treatment C showed slightly higher than the other treatments. 2. Chemical compositions of cut meats were not different from treatments. However, the treatment D showed slightly higher moisture, crude fat ands ash contents than other treatments. And crude protein content was better in treatment C than the other treatments. 3.
