Meat jerky is a type of meat snack with a long shelf life, light weight, and unique sensory properties. However, meat jerky requires a long manufacturing time, resulting in high energy consumption. In this study, beef jerky was prepared by injecting different concentrations of brine at different hot-air drying times (0-800 min). When the brine injection levels were increased to 30%, the drying characteristics of beef jerky, such as drying time and effective moisture diffusivity, were significantly improved owing to the relatively high water content and the formation of porous structures. The physicochemical properties (e.g. meat color, porosity, shear force, and volatile basic nitrogen) of the beef jerky injected with 30% brine were improved owing to the shortened drying time. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the beef jerky structure became porous and irregular during the brine injection process. Our novel processing technique for manufacturing beef jerky leads to improved quality characteristics and shortened drying times.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of sun-dried Hanwoo beef jerky added with the extract of Citrus junos seib. or Prunus mume. Hanwoo beef shank muscles were sliced, marinated, and sun-dried at $25^{\circ}C$, relative humidity of 35%. The physicochemical quality and microbiological safety of the Hanwoo beef jerky aerobically packaged were analyzed during the storage of $25^{\circ}C$. The moisture content of beef jerky with Citrus junos seib. was the lowest among the treatments after 20 d. Citrus junos seib. and Prunus mume jerky after 10 d had significantly lower aw than those after 0 and 20 d (p<0.05). The pH values of jerky generally ranged from 5.76 to 5.84. The pH value of Prunus mume jerky was significantly higher than those of other jerky samples (p<0.05). Prunus mume jerky showed significantly lower TBARS value than the others after 20 d (p<0.05). Citrus junos seib. jerky showed a significantly lower lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) than the others during the storage (p<0.05). Prunus mume samples after 10 d had significantly higher $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ values than the others (p<0.05). With regard to sensory properties, Citrus junos seib. and Prunus mume jerky showed significantly higher flavor and overall acceptability scores than the control (p<0.05). The extracts of Prunus mume will be used in sun-dried Hanwoo beef jerky as a natural agent to retard lipid oxidation and to improve meat color.

To determine the effects of various drying methods on the quality characteristics of beef jerky from low-valued cuts, Hanwoo beef shank muscles were either hot air-dried, shade-dried, or sun-dried. The physicochemical quality and microbiological safety of the Hanwoo beef jerky were analyzed during a storage of $25^{\circ}C$. Moisture content and water activity ($a_w$) of the samples decreased as the time period of storage increased, regardless of the drying condition (p<0.05). Shade-dried jerky showed higher $a_w$ compared to others after storage of 20 d (p<0.05). The pH value of hot air-dried jerky was higher than those of others (p<0.05). For color properties, sun-dried samples showed higher redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) compared with the properties of others (p<0.05). The hot air-dried jerky showed higher shear force values than the sun-dried or the shade-dried jerky after 10 and 20 d (p<0.05). However, the total plate counts (TPCs) of naturally dried jerky (shade and sundried) were higher than hot-air dried jerky after storage of 10 and 20 d (p<0.05). With regard to sensory properties, naturally dried jerky showed higher tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability scores than the hot air-dried jerky (p<0.05). In conclusion, although natural drying appears to be more susceptible to microbiological contamination than hot air-drying, the natural drying method seems to result in superior quality than the hot air drying method.

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of crude protease from Bacillus polyfermenticus SCD and marination time on quality of pork and beef jerky. Neither pork nor beef jerky showed a significant difference in pH among all treatments, and each protease was found to have a greater effect on the color of beef jerky. The hardness was significantly lower in all jerky treated with each protease, however the textural properties of jerky were not significantly different with regard to marination times. Water content was not affected by protease addition or marination times, however the water activity was lower in jerky treated with protease. The rehydration capacity of pork jerky was higher in jerky treated with protease, whereas that of beef jerky was higher in jerky dried after tumbled and held for 24 hr. Sensory characteristics were higher in jerky treated with protease, not affected by holding time after marinated.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of beef jerky with prepared various spices. The spices added included green tea, rosemary, clove, thyme, and parsley. According to the analysis of general ingredients, the moisture content was higher in the spice-added samples than in the control jerky, and the crude protein content was higher in green tea- and parsley-added samples. According to the mineral analysis, the most prevalent mineral was Na, followed by K, P, Mg, and Ca, with the contents of Mn and Cu being the least prevalent. Ca and Fe contents werehigher in green tea-added jerky than in samples prepared with other spices. High levels of leucine and lysine were seen amongst different essential amino acids. Total amino acids were within the control jerky containing the most abundant essential amino acids, followed by green tea- and parsley-added jerky. Measurements of texture, hardness and springiness in the spice-added samples appeared to be higher than in the control. Bitterness was higher in clove-addedsamples than in samples prepared with other spices. The evaluation of sensory properties showed that color is higher in green tea-, rosemary- and clove-added samples and that taste was best in green tea-added jerky, followed by parsley-added jerky. Overall quality was high in green tea- and parsley-added samples.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the availability of salted and fermented fish (SFF) including salted and fermented anchovy (SFA) and shrimp (SFS) as a marinade of beef jerky. In curing solutions, half (SFA 1 and SFS 1) or whole (SFA 2 and SFS 2) salt-water was replaced with SFF juices. Higher water activity ($a_w$) was found in the beef jerky cured with SFFs than the control (C) (p<0.05). The SFFs had the effect of causing a decrease in hardness and an increase in cohesiveness (p<0.05). Among the treatment samples, springiness was the highest in SFA2 and SFS2 (p<0.05) and the lowest values of Warner-Bratzler shear force were found in SFA1 and SFA2 (p<0.05). The SFFs also had the effect of increasing the flavor of the sensory properties; however, color measurements from both the instrumental surface color ($L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$, chroma, and hue angle) and color of sensory evaluation were decreased by addition of SFFs (p<0.05). Therefore, we conclude the SFFs can improve the texture and sensory properties of the beef jerky. In particular, the SFS is a good ingredient for the curing solution. However, studies are still needed on improving the $a_w$, pH, and surface color of the beef jerky to apply the SFFs for making beef jerky.

The physical quality and microbial safety of Korean beef jerky was evaluated at various steps during its preparation. Microbial counts in raw beef demonstrated mesophillic bacteria at 4.20 Log CFU/g, psychrotrophic bacteria at 3.85 Log CFU/g, anaerobic bacteria at 4.90 Log CFU/g, and yeast and molds at 1.92 Log CFU/g. Spore-forming bacteria and coliforms were not detected in raw beef samples. Spices and spiced meats showed similar trends in microbial counts, demonstrating minimal microbial contamination during these stages of preparation. The final beef jerky product exhibited counts of mesophillic bacteria at 1.15-1.66 Log CFU/g, psychrotrophic bacteria at 1.15-1.66 Log CFU/g, and anaerobic bacteria at 0.81-1.72 Log CFU/g. Spore-forming bacteria, yeast and molds, and coliforms were not detected in beef jerky. Significant differences from added ingredients occurred for instron textural profile analysis traits for hardness. In general, Korean beef jerky with humectant and tenderizer had lower hardness than control (without humectant and tenderizer). Also, the sample added with 0.01% protease from Streptomyces griseus had lower hardness than all samples. All samples had 0.7l to 0.72 water activities, and the color and pH were not shown in significant changes of all samples.
