Abstract
A meat flavoring composition is prepared utilizing a flavorant obtained by heating a fat in the presence of oxygen for a time and temperature sufficient for the fat to develop the charcoal broiled flavor. The flavorant is combined with an amino acid source and reducing sugar in a fat medium to form a low moisture content mixture which is then heated for a time and temperature sufficient to produce a Maillard reaction.
