Six treatment combinations were studied to determine the effects of initial temperature (0, 15, 30°C) and endpoint chopping temperatures (0, 15, 30, 45°C) on texture and stability of reduced fat, high moisture beef frankfurters. Textural properties (raw batter, frankfurter) and purge loss were determined over 8 wk storage. As endpoint chopping temperature increased, batter stability and shear force decreased. In most samples, initial temperature did not affect texture or stability. Endpoint chopping temperatures of ± 15°C resulted in most stable batters. Chopping > 15°C lowered product quality.
