Abstract
The vacuum packaged ham and loin from low-fat pork cuts were frozen at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 3 months and thawed. Then, the thawed meat was chilled at $3^{\circ}C$, and impacts of chilling period on changes in physical properties of raw meat and cooked meat were investigated. In the case of raw meat, the pH value, $L^*$ value, drip losses, water holding capacity and gumminess of ham increased significantly on the 4th day compared with the 0th day of chilling after thawing. However the cooking losses, hardness and chewiness decreased significantly. The loin showed a similar tendency on the 2nd day of chilling after thawing. In the case of cooked meat, changes in physical properties during chilling period after thawing showed a similar tendency as raw meat, but pH value, $L^*$ value and $a^*$ value did not show significant difference. The springiness and cohesiveness of both raw meat and cooked meat did not show significant difference during chilling period after thawing. The sensory tenderness of ham and loin improved significantly on the 4th day and 2nd day during chilling after thawing, respectively.
