The true statement concerning meat fabrication is:
A) Successful meat fabrication requires extensive knowledge of animal anatomy.
This is because understanding the anatomy of the animal helps in identifying where different cuts of meat come from and how to properly process them for optimal yield and quality.
The other statements have inaccuracies:
- B) There are general similarities among cuts from veal or venison, as both are from young animals and have some comparable cuts.
- C) While rib and loin cuts are often among the more tender cuts, the statement lacks the context that not all cuts from these sections are necessarily the most tender.
- D) Shoulder cuts are typically less expensive than loin cuts due to their tougher nature and longer cooking requirements.
