ABSTRACT:
A bone-cutting meat recovery unit having a platform tilted off horizontal with an elongated channel formed in its upper surface and a vertically extending powered band saw running through the platform immediately adjacent the channel at an angle thereto of approximately 30.degree., and a powered continuous drive chain revolvably mounted directly above the channel and having teeth to engage racks of bones placed with their spinal columns extending longitudinally within the channel and drive the same past the powered band saw. The channel has sidewalls one of which is adjacent to the band saw and extends upwardly and outwardly from the bottom of the channel and is contoured with vertically spaced steps extending longitudinally of the channel to cause the featherbones carried by such a rack of bones to extend at an angle to the upper surface, and thereby cause the saw to cut the featherbones at an acute angle and undercut the same so as to sever a substantially greater portion of the strip of meat disposed beneath the featherbones immediately adjacent and along the spinal column. A new method of recovering an additional and major portion of the recoverable meat is also disclosed.
