The examined carcass chilling methods differed significantly in the
LL muscle temperature 2 and 6 h p.m., but not 24 h p.m. (Table 2).
Half-carcasses subject to the two-stage blast chilling had a significantly
(p ≤ 0.01) lower temperature (temp2h, temp6h) of the LL muscle compared
to conventionally chilled carcasses. On the basis of mean values,
one can see a tendency that the higher the conformation, the lower
