  • Patent number: 11717003
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to the technical field of food processing, particularly to a grilling method for controlling the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in charcoal grilled meat. The grilling method comprises: Step 1, dispensing to-be-grilled meat into boxes with sealing covers, and adding edible oil into the boxes, wherein a ratio of edible oil to the weight of meat is 25˜50 mL/1000 g, and sealing the covers; Step 2, carrying out plasma treatment on the meat sealed in Step 1; and Step 3: placing the meat treated using plasma onto a grill and grilling. The grilling method for controlling the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in charcoal grilled meat is simple, convenient, and easy to operate; it is not needed adding unessential food additives, thereby significantly reducing the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in meat products, saving cost and improving safety while remaining the flavor of food itself.
