Check out this great webinar opportunity!AAMP is partnering with USDA’s FSIS’ Dr. Meryl Silverman and Andrew Lorenz, CEO of We R Food Safety, to discuss cooking and cooling deviations in meat and poultry processing. AAMP Outreach has identified the need for education in the industry covering deviations and identifying when processing procedures do not go according to plan. Dr. Meryl Silverman will discuss what heating, cooking, and cooling deviations are, as well as different options to demonstrate food safety and when to choose these options. Drew Lorenz will walk through a cooling deviation, and how to properly complete a pathogen modeling program for the deviation presented. Join us February 4th, 2025, at 1 p.m. EST for this discussion.

David Hull, Ph. D., Technical Sales Director for Dickson Industries Inc., spoke at this past summer's pre-Convention trip to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln about Ten-DEER-Loin processing, and how you can get the most from your deer processing. He also wrote an article in the AAMPlifier earlier this year. Below is an updated version of that article, available at The Meat Locker. Click the link below to read it.
