Egypt beef shelf life verification trial

Australian vacuum-packed chilled beef has a practical storage life of 140 days when stored below 0 C. In Egypt, much shorter limits of 49 days for boneless and 28 days for bone-in beef are prescribed. This study was designed to verify that Australian boneless (striploin) and bone-in beef (Oven Prepared rib) primals display satisfactory sensory properties throughout extended cold storage in Egypt.
