The bandsaw and the shear cutter are the commonly used technologies to slice lamb in Spain. These technologies have different cutting mechanisms so they could exert different effects on meat quality. Seven lamb legs were sliced with each technology to evaluate the effect of both cutting systems on meat colour, lipid oxidation, microbial growth and visual acceptability. Significant differences between cutting systems were found in visual acceptability. Samples chopped with a bandsaw were given higher values for muscle and bone acceptability as well as for overall liking. These differences in acceptability may be explained due to the bone splinters produced by the shear cutter. Therefore, the bandsaw could be recommended for lamb slicing.
