Abstract
In a process for removing the meat from the bodies of slaughtered poultry and an apparatus for performing the process, the starting product to be processed appropriately is a poultry body from which the wingbones (humerus) have been removed at the body joints and the legs by a cross-cut separating the pelvic region together with the legs and which is opened towards the back by cutting out the backbone. For improving the quality of the fillet particularly including the breast meat, it is suggested that the wishbone (furcula) connected to the body joints and obstructing the filleting process is cut free following the detaching of the meat from the breastbone (sternum), and that only then the fillets are completely separated while displacing the branches of the wishbone and the body joints towards the plane of symmetry of the poultry body.
