Abstract In this study, the effects of yellow-feathered broiler carcasses stored at 0–4 ℃ for different durations (0, 24 and 48 h) on the eating quality of Mengshan stir-fried chicken were investigated. Stir-fried thigh and breast meat were sampled for the determination of color, texture, pH value, water-holding capacity, volatile contents and sensory evaluation. The results showed that the brightness value (L*) of stir-fried breast meat in the 0 h (control) and 24 h groups were significantly higher than that in the 48 h group (P < 0.05), while the L* of stir-fried thigh meat in the 24 h group was significantly higher than that in the other groups (P < 0.05). The hardness of stir-fried thigh and breast meat in both the 0 h and 24 h groups was significantly higher than that in the 48 h group (P < 0.05). Sensory evaluation showed that while aroma scores were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the 48 h group and color scores in the 24 h group were significantly higher (P < 0.05), there were little differences in taste, appearance and overall sensory scores among all groups (P > 0.05). Therefore, yellow feather broiler carcasses should be stir-fried within 24 hours postmortem for better eating quality of Mengshan stir-fried chicken.
