)A=u!C(K CS It is the operator's responsibility to develop and implement Control Programs that meet the mandatory process control requirements and performance requirements outlined in this chapter. Comminuting processes include mechanical separation, flaking and grinding. Review of the cooking process and product formulation must also be done. No. Indicating and recording thermometers must be calibrated. includes milk, egg, yeast or any vegetable material or any derivative or combination thereof that is edible, and that is not visibly distinguishable after addition to the meat product, but does not include beetroot, tomato or a food additive with the exception of modified starches, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. means an edible meat product that does not contain more than 0.15 per cent of calcium in the product and any bone particles larger than 1.5mm in size and a maximum of 20% of the bone particles larger than 1mm in size, that was obtained by removing most of the bone and cartilage from a comminuted meat product from which the bone and cartilage had not been previously removed. The shift must be a minimum of 4 hours to be considered in this start-up plan, unless the operator's normal operating shift is less than 4 hours. The operator must control the risk of cross contamination from non cleaned containers. hb```,@(qPTQL;6T&M#jrv)F=B records demonstrating compliance with all of the above listed requirements must be stored at the establishment for at least one year for each lot of product which is crust frozen. As the MSM is labelled as "skinless", the amount of skin that may be added is calculated for both the pork trim and the MSM which gives us an "x" value of 6.4kg: 4.4kg for the pork trim and 2kg for the MSM (8% of 80kg). Those records showing adherence to the schedule (product time/temperature) should be maintained on file for a period of at least 12 months beyond the shelf life (best before) of the product and made available to the inspector on request. The formation of ice concentrates the dissolved solutes and reduces the water activity of the meat product. It is the operator's responsibility to determine compatible areas and non-compatible areas for different processing steps, as part of the prerequisite program and HACCP system. 1260-1266. Where carcasses are aged in this manner, attention must be paid to temperature and humidity, to avoid the development of mould. Uncooked Comminuted Fermented Meat (UCFM) is a meat product manufactured by a series of processes including fermentation and maturation (with smoking/heat treatment as an optional step). The operator is required to validate the preparation instructions: The operator is responsible for ensuring that all heat processed meat and poultry products are handled and chilled so that the product is maintained in a wholesome and unadulterated state. The aw may be reduced by adding solutes (salt, sugar) or removing moisture. The added 8% can only be applied to products which have skin on them (for example, it would not apply to beef tongues or gizzards). Any deviation in cooking processes must be brought to the attention of the Inspector in Charge. The operator must have deviation procedures for product which does not meet the standards outlined in 4.3.3. Important to sausages, reformed hams and other comminuted meat products 11. means a skin-like container used for a meat product, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. an individual unit of food that is combined with one or more other individual units of food to form an ingredient, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. means, in respect of a meat product, to determine that the meat product is inedible, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. means a package in which a meat product is placed to be offered for sale, or intended to be offered for sale, but does not include a lining, a bulk container, or a transport container, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. a control program consisting of actions and activities that can be used to prevent or eliminate a food safety hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level. If kept hot, cooked meat products should always be kept at 60C or above. The required outcome is to control the growth of microorganisms in the room or area used for the processing, packaging, labelling or handling of meat products. Where this is not possible, the operator should utilize fermentation room temperatures.

Packaging procedures must be included it the operator's prerequisite programs and HACCP system. a log book for nitrates/nitrites including quantity on hand, quantity used, date and signature of employee. The existing reference listing will continue to be accessible on the CFIA website but will no longer be updated. The placing of frozen meat into cooking kettles without prior thawing is permitted only when a representative sample of the entire lot has been thawed and found to be sound and unadulterated. A carcass re-inspection station located prior to cutting and/or boning is required for red meat and must be equipped as per MOP Chapter 3, section 3.4.12, Check Trim Station. The following processes have been scientifically validated as achieving a 5D or greater reduction of E.coliO157:H7. Pasteurization of packaged ready-to-eat meat products may be used to extend shelf life and to prevent pathogen growth in ready-to-eat meat products. (See. means gelatin, agar or carrageenan, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. a hazard analysis critical control points plan that is prepared in accordance with the FSEP Manual for a process or product and that specifies, in respect of the process or product, all the hazards, critical control points, critical limits, monitoring procedures, deviation procedures, verification procedures and records, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. the edible meat product that is derived from the hind leg of a dressed swine carcass above the tarsal joint, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. means a biological, chemical or physical agent or factor that has the potential to cause a food to be unsafe for human consumption in the absence of its control, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. an individual unit of food that is combined with one or more other individual units of food so that the individual unit are no longer distinguishable as separate units. Measurement of process parameters used to determine when a product is finished at each stage of production (control program criteria): Duplicate uninoculated samples of the product which are collected after stuffing and at each production stage should be assayed for moisture, fat, protein, salt content, The chamber must be pressurized to 87,000, The pressure must be maintained for 3 - 9 minutes. The limitation of the number of degree-hours depends upon the highest temperature in the fermentation process prior to the time that a pH of 5.3 or less is attained. means to lower the temperature of a meat product to, and to maintain the temperature at, 4C or lower, but does not include to freeze, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. the ability of a given heating process to kill bacteria. These procedures help tenderize the meat and are used in quality control and finish of the product, rather than food safety. the Food Safety Enhancement Program Manual (FSEP) published by the Agency, as amended from time to time. Comminuted meat products are significant contributors to consumer fat and salt intakes, which are currently above World Health Organization recommended levels. Once the lot is completely assembled, determine its size (in, Randomly select the containers from the lot in proportion to different code marks, and remove the required number of 5.5. Assure that all boneless meat produced under the program is capable of passing the lot inspection/examination program previously described using the designated sampling plans and defect criteria. In the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990 (MIR) "refrigerate" means to lower the temperature of a meat product to, and to maintain the temperature at, 4C or lower, but does not include to freeze. To improve the appearance of the finished product some tumbler mixers have been modified by adding paddles, blades or spikes in the tumblers so that during the tumbling action, the ground meat and cure is pushed into the solid meat cuts. qF 1`rA!w) ] (b) the procedures to ensure compliance with the performance requirements set out in the Manual of Procedures. most products have a specific flavor profile may be influenced by region, culture. A process can be judged as acceptable provided the product consistently reaches a pH of 5.3 using: When fermentation is done at a constant temperature, operators can either use the following table or the calculation method (see examples below) for determining degree-hours limits and maximum time for fermentation at a given room temperature. When the fermentation takes place at various temperatures, each temperature step in the process is analyzed for the number of degree-hours it contributes. Operators must provide evidence that the packaging material used is appropriate to undergo high pressure processing treatment. Meat products which have been frozen and thawed for sale in a refrigerated state must be labelled in accordance with article B.01.080 of the Food and Drug Regulations as "previously frozen". }@ Equipment used in the fermentation process must be included in the operator's prerequisite control programs. %%EOF The samples may be placed in the same container (e.g. If a dehydrated product that is not cooked is sold as shelf-stable (i.e., there is no "keep refrigerated" statement), it has to meet the same applicable controls as shelf-stable fermented meat products (see section 4.16.3). salted, pickled, dried, cured, smoked or treated by other similar means, but does not include refrigerated or frozen. 1 minute when the minimum internal (dwell) time is at least 10 minutes. If the number of defects found is between 1 and 4, a second sample of 20 units must be evaluated. hLj0_o8IJP Therefore, total number of samples for microbiological analysis: Time zero (0) = 2 After fermentation = 0 During drying = 0 End drying = 2 Total = 4 Number of replicates x 3 Total samples = 12. Unstandardized foods must meet also meet regulatory requirements under the FDR and MIR, such as those for minimum protein requirements. Depending on the composition of the final product, the resulting edible product is referred to as finely textured meat or mechanically separated meat (e.g. no fresh or frozen liquid egg is to leave the premises unless it is marked "Inedible egg - unfit for human consumption", as it does not meet federal or provincial requirements. An establishment must use option 3 if option 1, 2, 4 or 5 are not used. For the purpose of this sampling plan the definition of a lot is the same as in the above item 4.3.3.2 Control of Lungs and Kidneys in Poultry Carcasses and Parts of Carcasses. The rejected product must be reworked and resubmitted for sampling, returned to the originator, or treated as inedible product. As the MSM is not labelled as "skinless", the amount of skin that may added is calculated for the 55kg of skinless pork trim only, which gives us an "x" value of 4.4kg (8% of 55kg). See Annex H for mandatory requirements for Listeriaspp. Analyses should be done for Staphylococcus aureus and its enterotoxin, and for principal pathogens, such as E.coliO157:H7, Salmonella, and Clostridium botulinum and Listeria monocytogenes. includes hams, bacons, corned beef commonly referred to as smoked meats; they are prepared from whole, intact cuts of meat; usually are cured, seasoned, heat processed and smoked; often they are molded or formed; 2. Requirements for processed meat products are governed by the both the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990 (MIR) and the Food and Drug Regulations (FDR). For purposes of this program, a lot shall consist of the mechanically separated meat or finely textured meat produced from a single species in no more than one continuous shift of up to 12 hours. Annex I: This Annex has been incorporated into Annex H.

Degrees above 15.6C: 26C - 15.6C = 10.4C Hours to reach pH of 5.3: 55 Degree-hours calculation: (10.4C) x (55) = 572 degree-hours. Refer to the FSEP Manual and Chapter 3, Prerequisite Programs for more details. . Non-comminuted & Indigenous meat products and there processing is discussed briefly Kidneys and lungs must be removed from poultry carcasses and portions prior to their use as material for mechanical separation. The lowering of the water activity may also be accomplished by the addition of sugars or salt. The manufacturing process must allow an extra 1 minute of dwell time to compensate for measurement error. Restructured meat processing technology and development trend. Fermentation and smoking chambers must be equipped with a recording thermometer for determining degree-hours calculations in a reliable manner. The operator is required to maintain a listing of all of the packaging material used in the establishment. a separating drum or filter, separating screens, screen plates or perforated screen, feeding screw [i.e. 998 0 obj <>/Filter/FlateDecode/ID[<576D9BEFE99B2147A4D9E3101C27BE83><37D7B03F1F34D543BCB4EB98378E8294>]/Index[982 44]/Info 981 0 R/Length 82/Prev 280603/Root 983 0 R/Size 1026/Type/XRef/W[1 2 1]>>stream Contact the CFIA Area Program Specialist for information for approved antimicrobial agents for meat products. The Food and Drug Regulations (Divisions 14 and 22) and the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990 (Schedule I) prescribe the standards for meat products manufactured in Canada. This documentation package should include, but not be limited to, a recommendation from a process authority demonstrating that the alternate cooling process is as effective as the current performance standards. Refer to the CFIA website for additional information on allergens. When using skinless MSM in the formulation of a meat product, up to 8% of skin from the named species is permitted under the MIR Schedule I. For sausages, the minimum meat content is lower, with 42% needed for pork sausages, 26% for bird and/or rabbit sausages, and 30% for other meat sausages. ensuring that the minimum amount of thermal lethality must be received in a single dose, it is not acceptable to use a dose cumulative approach, causes a continuous drop in product's temperature; or, controls the product's surface temperature so that it does not stay between 49, protected from post cooking contamination (. Once a pH of 5.3 is reached, Staphylococcus aureus multiplication and toxin production are stopped. Textbook solutions. The agent must be an agent approved by Health Canada. This gives us the following final recipe: 50.6kg of skinless pork trim + 4.4kg of pork skin 25kg of pork MSM 20kg of water, 25kg of pork MSM without skin 20kg of water xkg of pork skin. The tested lots are to be held until receipt of an acceptable laboratory report. Non-meat ingredients: Large numbers of non-meat ingredients are required for providing taste and improving quality. The manufacturing process used must be evaluated in a scientific manner consistent with the challenge study recommendations (refer to Option 5, sub-section 4.16.2.2.5). frozen immediately after the deboning process. spores to dangerous levels during the interval following cooking. Submissions will be sent to the Area Program Specialist for review with a Food Safety Microbiology Specialist and Health Canada. no more than 0.027% of calcium for every 1% of protein; it has a minimum protein content of 14%; and, bones emerging from separation equipment must be essentially intact and recognizable to assure that the bones are not being crushed, ground or pulverized; and, it complies with the standards set out within Schedule. Each sub-sample should be about 30 grams. 36. It refers to the extraction of matrix proteins in muscle fibers and the use of additives by means of mechanical and additive materials (salt, edible complex phosphate, animal and vegetable protein, starch, carrageenan . control of egg shells to prevent contamination; egg shells and defective eggs must be handled as inedible product; and. For more information see Chapter 7. The operator is required to implement a microbiological testing program for E.coli0157 and Salmonella as a verification procedure for their process. The operator is required to implement a control program based on 4.16.2.1.1, Fermentation Done at a Constant Temperature (Constant Temperature Process) and 4.16.2.1.2, Fermentation Done at Different Temperatures (Variable Temperature Processes) to control pathogens. Aging of beef has traditionally been used to increase tenderness and flavour and involves holding a carcass for up to 14 days under refrigeration. Freezing reduces the temperature of a meat product below the freezing point, changing the state of water from liquid to solid form (ice).
