What is the shelf life of chilled carcass meat?
I mean a side of beef carcass stored at a temperature of 0 to 4 Celsius and we use a kilo after a kilo from it until it is finished. So, For how long it stays safe to sell?

Hello Ahmed, 

Hope these links help you 

http://www.fao.org/d...E/T0098E02.htm 

http://iopscience.io...5/1/012022/pdf 

 

and you can also Validate the shelf life by doing tests to determine if the meat still good or not. 

Hello Mohamed Yusuf! Thanks for replying, but unfortunately, both links aren't working for me. Is there any alternative solution? 

Just google  shelf life of chilled carcass meat and there will be links from FAO and other links that will help you 

You really need to have shelf life studies performed in order to be sure. There are too many factors involved to make a determination based on an internet search

 

How clean is the carcass post slaughter

is it dipped in an antimicrobial prior to chiller

How clean is the air in the cooler

How clean are the knives used to cut from the side

Actual cooler temperature variations

What kind of meat (beef, pork etc)

etc etc
