This study evaluated the meat quality of grazing suckling calves (GR), suckling plus supplemented calves (SUP) and weaned calves finished on concentrates (FIN) and the color evolution of meat packaged in film (FILM), modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and vacuum packaging (VAC). Intramuscular fat was quite low for all treatments and GR meat had greater percentages of PUFA and lower SFA, MUFA and n6/n3 than SUP and FIN. FIN and SUP meat had more L* and was more tender when aged than GR. GR meat was tough and dark. The packaging system was more influential on meat color than the feeding management. VAC had the lowest values of metmyoglobin when aged. MAP had the greatest L* and hue angle and the lowest redness after 13Â d of aging, thus MAP was the packaging with the shortest shelf life.
⺠Meat from grazing, supplemented and finished with concentrate calves were studied. ⺠The concentrate fed treatments produced pale, light and tender meat. ⺠Meat from concentrate fed treatments was different than meat commonly available. ⺠Packaging system effect on shelf life of veal was greater than feeding management. ⺠Vacuum and MAP packed meat had longest and shortest shelf life, respectively.
