A number of ready-to-use shelf-stable intermediate-moisture (IM) spiced mutton and spiced chicken products were developed with a combination of hurdles (reduced moisture, vacuum packing, and irradiation). The water activity of the products was reduced to about 0.80 either by grilling or by hot-air drying. These IM products were vacuum packed and subjected to gamma radiation processing at 0 to 10 kGy. Microbiological analyses revealed a radiation dose-dependent reduction in total viable counts and in numbers of Staphylococcus species. IM meat products that did not undergo radiation treatment showed visible mold growth within 2 months. The products subjected to irradiation at 10 kGy showed an absence of viable microorganisms and also retained high sensory acceptability for up to 9 months at ambient temperatures.
