Abstract The flavor of meat products is a combination of taste and aroma attributes. Its chemical perception arises from the synergistic interaction between the gustatory and olfactory systems. Taste receptors detect non-volatile flavor components such as amino acids, while volatile compounds serve as primary stimuli for the olfactory system. Their combined input establishes a holistic flavor perception. The generation of flavor compounds involves intricate biochemical pathways, based on amino acids, lipids, and other precursors. Flavor components are generated through degradation, oxidation, and other reactions, contributing to the characteristic flavor of meat products. Nutritional intervention strategies, including feed optimization and improved feeding regimens, can regulate the metabolism of flavor precursors, thereby influencing the formation and release of flavor compounds. This review systematically examines the development mechanism and nutritional regulation strategies for meat flavor to provide a reference for enhancing meat product quality.
