Abstract:
Systems and methods for forming raw meat structures from a plurality of meat pieces. Meat pieces of diverse shape, size, and quality are coated with a bonding agent such as a transglutaminase and then pressurized at low temperature. The pressure, temperature and bonding agent cause the meat pieces to form a composite, uncooked meat structure that is suitable for cutting, extruding, shaping, and other meat processing.
