Abstract：This study analyzed the differences in the physicochemical quality (pH, color, texture, moisture content, and water activity (aw)) and flavor characteristics (taste and volatile substances) of fermented beef, pork, and lamb sausages. The results demonstrated that there were significant differences in the physicochemical qualities and flavor characteristics among fermented beef, pork, and lamb sausages. Among them, the redness value (a*) and aw of fermented lamb sausage were both the highest, with a favorable texture and mouthfeel; the response values of sweet and umami taste sensors for fermented beef sausage were both the highest, presenting a good taste; the total content of typical volatile substances such as esters (ethyl acetate and ethyl butyrate) and ketones was significantly higher than in fermented pork sausage than in fermented beef and lamb sausages (P < 0.05), primarily contributing to the delicate and more fruity flavors of the product, and it had higher overall sensory acceptability. In summary, there are great differences in the physicochemical properties and flavor of fermented beef, lamb, and pork sausages.
