The objective of this work was to evaluate sensory atributes (tenderness, odor, flavor, juiciness and color) and physical attributes (shearing force, cooking losses and the color parameters of L*, a*, b*) in addition to content of iron in the meat of Santa Inês (SI), Dorper × Santa Inês (DP × SI) and Without Definite Breed Pattern (WDB) lambs, finished in feedlots, in function of two roughage:concentrate (50:50 and 20:80) relationships in the diet. It was used 54 whole lambs (18 […]

Eighteen ½ Ile de France ½ Polwarth sheep (6 no castrated lambs, 6 discarded ewes and 6 discarded wethers) were used to evaluate qualitative traits of meat from different categories of sheep for muscle cuts (shoulder, loin and leg). The animals were raised in grazing system with tifton-85 pastures and supplemented with concentrate. Lambs were slaughtered at 32 kg body weight, close to 5 months of age. Ewes and wethers were slaughtered with 55 kg and 60 months of age. […]
