Among the main types of shredded meat, shredded chicken is undoubtedly the most popular. It is a low-fat product, rich in nutrients and affordable, and is widely used around the world.
When shredding chicken, it can be used in countless recipes and fillings: savory snacks, pizzas, wraps, salads, soups, etc. Thus, the shredding process plays a key role in the use of this type of food.
If chicken is used on an industrial scale, the use of the right tools and machines will directly impact the health of the business and the final product.
Choosing the cut will influence both the cost of shredding and the characteristics of the shredded chicken. The most commonly used cuts are chicken breast and chicken fillet. The cost varies greatly by region, with sassami being more affordable in some regions and chicken breast in others.
Another point to consider – and probably the most important one – is the desired characteristics of the shredded chicken. If you want to deliver shorter shredded chicken to your customer (for use in snacks, for example), fillet is more suitable, while longer shredded chicken (for use in pizzas or wraps) is better suited to chicken breast.
Finally, be very careful with the bones. During the shredding process, if the bones are not removed beforehand, they will mix with the shredded meat, making it much more difficult to separate them later.
Cooking is essential for the chicken to be shredded. It is at this stage that the fibers begin to melt the collagen between them, allowing the shredding to be done by the shredders. On an industrial scale, it is necessary to use high-capacity equipment, the main ones being:
1. Industrial Boilers
2. Combination Ovens
If you need to shred chicken on a large scale, choosing the right equipment will directly impact the labor used and, consequently, your business. Our DFC Line Chicken and Meat Shredders are the definitive solution for this industry, as they can process hundreds (and even thousands) of pounds per hour. This greatly optimizes the labor involved in the shredding process.
Another important factor is the quality of the shredding. If it is not done correctly, the product becomes mushy, with broken fibers, loses yield, and does not deliver the desired quality to the end customer. That is why the patented technology of the DFC Line plays an important role in the final result, achieving the best possible shredding.
We manufacture three models of Chicken Shredders (DFC 10, DFC 20, and DFC 30), with the DFC 20 and DFC 30 models being suitable for the industrial-scale production of shredded chicken.
