Abstract
Cooked bacon slices are produced substantially continuously by slicing raw pork bellies at a temperature of typically -1C to form slices of raw pork which are laid flat on an openwork mesh belt 4. Upper and lower spray heads, 34 apply a curing solution onto top and underneath faces of the slices 3 on the conveyor 4. The conveyor 4 delivers the raw pork slices 3 with the curing solution applied to a continuous cooker 6 in which the slices 3 are cooked at about 275C for about 2 minutes. The cooked bacon slices are thus produced substantially continuously to a high quality and with reduced labour input.
Description
1 2332134 "A Method and Apparatus for Producing Cooked Bacon SliceC
Introduction
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing cooked bacon slices.
Bacon slices are conventionally produced by first tempering frozen pork bellies to a temperature of about 4'C. A curing solution is then injected into the pork using a multineedle injector. The pork is massaged to promote the distribution of the curing solution and the massaged bellies are left overnight to cure. After curing, the bellies are put into moulds and tempered to typically - WC. The cured bellies are drawn from stock when required, sliced, cooked and frozen.
This process is not only labor intensive and expensive but can also result in product quality difficulties. One of the essential ingredients of the curing formulation is common salt, sodium chloride. In the conventional process, after the salt is introduced into the pork, the bacon may be stored for several weeks before use. However, as salt is a strong pro-oxidant the bacon can become rancid in storage. For this reason, bacon prepared in the conventional manner has a relatively short lift span. In addition, the presence of salt results in ice crystals which cause problems on slicing the bacon as a clean cut is difficult to achieve due to tearing in the region where the ice crystals are broken. This leads to slices with an inferior surface. In addition, the useful life of the cutting blade used on slicing is shortened.
There is therefore a need for an improved method and apparatus for producing cooked bacon slices which will overcome at least some of these difficulties.
Statements of Invention
According to the invention there is provided a method for producing cooked bacon slices substantially continuously comprising the steps of.- slicing raw pork bellies to form slices; laying the raw slices flat on a support; applying a curing liquid onto the raw pork slices on the support; leading the cured bacon slices to a cooker; and continuously cooking the raw slices with the curing liquid applied.
Preferably the curing liquid is applied onto both faces of the raw slices. Most preferably the curing liquid is applied by spraying the liquid onto the slices.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention the support is a conveyor on which the raw slices are laid flat for leading the slices to the cooker.

Brief description of the drawings
The invention will be more clearly understood from the following description therefore given by any of example only with reference to the accompanying claims in which: - to Fig. 1 is a perspective view of apparatus for producing cooked bacon slices according to the invention; Fig. 2 is an end view of an applicator means of the apparatus of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a plan view of a conveyor part of the apparatus; Fig. 4 is perspective view of the applicator means; Fig. 5 is an end view of the applicator means; and Fig. 6 is a perspective, partially exploded view of the applicator means; Detailed Desgdption Referring to the drawings there is illustrated an apparatus and method for producing cooked bacon slices substantially continuously. The apparatus comprises a slicer 1 for slicing raw pork bellies at a temperature of typically - PC to form slices 3 of raw pork which are laid flat on a support provided by a conveyor in the form of an openwork mesh belt 4. The conveyor belt 4 delivers the raw pork slices to an applicator means 5 which applies a curing solution to both flat faces of the slices 3 on the belt 4.
6 The conveyor belt 4 then delivers the raw pork slices 3, with the curing solution applied, to a continuous cooker 6 in which the pork slices 3 are cooked at a temperature of from 27WC to 28WC, preferably 275'C for a period of from 1 to 3, most preferably approximately 2 mins. To optimise the slicing, curing and cooking process cooking is commenced within 30, and most preferably within about 15 seconds of the application of the curing liquid. After cooking, the cooked cured slices may be diced to a desired size prior to freezing.
The curing solution applied is M this case a mixture of approximately 20 wto/o of sodium chloride, approximately 600 ppm of sodium nitrate, and a smoke flavour, typically 3 wt% of liquid smoke flavour. The smoke flavour may be a mixture of smoke flavour such as a 2:1 ratio of flavour types LFIDN and P50 available from Red Arrow.
The curing solution is applied at a rate to achieve an uptake of approximately 10% by weight of the pork slices corresponding to an application rate of 10 litres per 100 kg of meat.
The curing solution is applied using the applicator 5 which is shown in detail in Figs. 2, and 4 to 6. The applicator 5 comprises a chassis 10 fitted with wheels. Four support legs 12, 13, 14, 15 extend upwardly ftom the chassis 10. For ease of moving the applicator into and out of the inline position illustrated m Fig. 1 one pair 14, 15 of the support legs are movable as illustrated in Fig. 6 for pushing the applicator into the in-line position of Fig. 1 and are readily bolted back into the support position. Cross members 17, 18 extend between the legs 12, 14 and 13 and 15 and these support an excess curing liquid collection tray 19 having an outlet pipe 20 for delivery of collected curing liquid to a supply tank 41.
7 The support leg 12 extends upwardly and an upper cross member 30 extends outwardly therefrom and supports an upper spray bar 3 1. A lower spray bar 32 is supported on the cross member 17.
Referring particularly to Fig. 2 it will be noted that in this case the lower spray bar 32 is fitted with three lower spray heads 33 to deliver a spray of curing liquid to the underface of the pork slices 3 on the mesh belt 4. The lower spray heads 33 are spaced-apart to deliver an even spray of curing liquid to the lower face of the pork slices 3 on the belt 4. Similarly, the upper spray bar 31 is fitted with two spray heads 34 which are positioned to deliver an even spray of curing liquid to the upper face of the slices 3 on the mesh belt 4. Excess curing solution which is not taken up by the pork slices 3 is collected by the recycle tray 19. In this way an even spread of curing liquid is applied to both the top and underneath faces of the slices 3. A cowl 40 is provided above the upper spray bar 31 to direct any mist rising from the sprays downwardly onto the slices 3 on the conveyor 4.
The curing liquid is supplied to the spray bars 31, 32 by a pump which delivers the liquid from a supply tank 41 along a supply line 42. The supply line is fitted with a valve 43 which may be used to regulate the flow of liquid and hence the rate of application of the curing liquid onto the slices. The flow of curing liquid from the lower spray heads 33 may be further regulated by a restrictor 50.
The method of producing cooked bacon slices according to the invention offers very considerable advantages. The method allows cooked bacon slices to be produced highly efficiently, substantially continuously and with a high level of quality and reduced labour. As the pork slices do not come into contact with the curing liquid until just before cooking there is no possibility of the pro-oxidant properties of the salt in the curing solution developing. Thus, the shelf life of the product is extended as rancidity is avoided.
8 The invention is not limited to the embodiments hereinbefore described which may be varied in both construction and detail.
