The purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the meat quality of Bian chickens. Sixty one-day-old Bian chickens were selected and divided into 6 replicates with 10 chickens per replicate, half male and half female, at the same conditions of conventional breeding. The slaughter performance, common meat quality, meat chemical indices and flavor substance indices of Bian chicken at the age of 112 day were measured. The results showed that the dressing percentage of cocks and hens was above 88%, the percentage of eviscerated yield was above 65%. The shearing force of breast muscle of cocks was significantly higher than that of hens (P<0.01). The crude protein contents in breast muscle of cocks and hens were 84.67% and 87.63%, respectively, and both of them were significantly higher than those in leg muscle (P<0.01). The crude fat contents in leg muscle of cocks and hens were 11.08% and 13.02%, respectively, and both of them were significantly higher than those in breast muscle (P<0.01). The total fatty acids contents in breast muscle and leg muscle of cocks were 31.74 and 99.44 mg/g, respectively, those in hens were 29.57 and 114.29 mg/g, respectively; the total amino acids contents in breast muscle and leg muscle of cocks were 80.47% and 96.06%, respectively, those in hens were 80.20% and 93.75%, respectively. There were significantly differences between total fatty acids and total amino acids contents in leg muscle and breast muscle (P<0.01), but no differences between cocks and hens (P>0.05). Therefore, Bian chickens have the features of good slaughter performance, muscle tender, rich nutrition, good meat quality and rich flavor substance, and are a very good local breed.
