The overall goal was to evaluate the effects of repackaging nitrite-embedded dark-cutting steaks in polyvinylchloride (PVC) film on surface color. Dark-cutting beef strip loins (n = 8; pH = 6.39) and USDA Low Choice beef strip loins (USDA Choice, n = 6; pH = 5.56) were selected at a commercial packing plant. Dark-cutting loins were bisected and randomly assigned to nonenhanced dark-cutting and enhanced dark-cutting with glucono delta-lactone and rosemary treatments. USDA Choice and nonenhanced dark-cutting steaks were vacuum packaged (VP) and served as controls, whereas enhanced dark-cutting steaks were packed in nitrite-embedded packaging (NP). Steaks from nonenhanced USDA Choice VP, nonenhanced dark-cutting VP, and enhanced dark-cutting NP loins were randomly assigned to 3, 6, or 9 d of dark storage.Following dark storage, steaks were repackaged in PVC and displayed for 6 d at 2°C. Instrumental color, visual color, and aerobic plate count were evaluated for all steaks. Enhanced dark-cutting steaks in NP increased (P &amp;lt; 0.05) a* values compared with USDA Choice and nonenhanced dark-cutting VP during 24 h of dark storage. Enhanced dark-cutting steaks packaged in NP had greater a* and L* values (P &amp;lt; 0.05) than nonenhanced dark-cutting VP steaks during dark storage. Upon repackaging the enhanced dark-cutting steaks from NP, nitric oxide myoglobin decreased (P &amp;lt; 0.05) during the first 12 h of display. Loss of nitric oxide myoglobin corresponds with a darker red appearance, increased surface discoloration, and decreased a* values.There were no differences (P &amp;gt; 0.05) in aerobic plate count between enhanced dark-cutting NP steaks and nonenhanced dark-cutting VP steaks after repackaging. In conclusion, NP improved surface redness; however, repackaging enhanced dark-cutting from NP steaks in PVC decreased color stability and redness of dark-cutting beef.
