Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for rapidly changing the internal temperature of meat by the use of gas. More specifically, discrete areas of the meat are subjected to gas, such as air, under pressure and at a temperature higher than the desired temperature for the meat, if it is to be heated, or at a lower temperature than the desired temperature for the meat, if it is to be cooled. This invention relates to a method and apparatus for changing the internal temperature of meat by the use of gas under pressure.
