ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for processing shucked scallops by cleaning the viscera from the edible muscle. The muscles and attached viscera are placed upon the upper surfaces of a series of parallel rollers forming an inclined path. At least one scallop contact assembly is mounted above the upper surfaces of the parallel rollers for displacement longitudinally of the inclined path and serves to displace and level the scallops upon the rollers and to urge the scallops into the nips or valleys between adjacent rollers such that the driven rollers grip the viscera and remove it from the muscles. A fluid spray arrangement and the contact assembly controls the advancement of the scallops down the inclined path.
