Research was conducted to develop a more accurate and less time-consuming method of determining expressible moisture in poultry meat. Two modifications of wrapping meat in netting (fold wrap or basket wrap) were compared to a conventional method that did not include wrapping meat. Ground, dark poultry meat, with and without 2.0% added NaCl, was wrapped in netting and analyzed for expressible moisture. The fold wrap method was determined to be more accurate and easier to use, as less expressed meat adhered to the surrounding filter papers. Thus, actual expressed moisture absorbed by filter papers was measured.
