ABSTRACT:
Chopped pieces of meat are placed within a mixer having an outlet with a feed screw, and an elongated discharge tube is coupled to the outlet. The outer end of the discharge tube supports a plate having a predetermined shape corresponding to the shape of a meat product such as a steak or pork chop forming an individual serving portion. A plastic bag is pulled over the discharge tube and end plate, followed by a clamped tubular mold having a longitudinal joint and an inner surface corresponding to the shape of the end plate. The outer end of the mold is closed, and the mixed meat product is extruded through the tube into the bag within the mold while the mold is moved from the tube and end plate under restraining back pressure. The mold is unclamped, and the bag and meat product are slid from the mold onto a tray conforming to the shape of the lower portion of the mold. The meat product is frozen on the tray, after which the bag is removed, and the meat product is cut into individual serving portions.
