Cased protein product
View Patent ↗A foodstuff may include an edible encased protein product. The edible encased protein product may include a natural or synthetic edible casing and a full muscle chicken protein filler encased in the casing. An insertion member may extends along a longitudinal axis between first and second ends. At least one end may extend within the full muscle chicken encased in the casing. The edible encased protein may be dimensioned to simulate a chicken wing flat or drumette.
1. A foodstuff, comprising:
an edible encased protein product comprising
a natural or synthetic edible sausage casing;
a full muscle chicken protein filler encased in the casing; and
an insertion member that extends along a longitudinal axis between first and second ends, wherein at least one end extends within the full muscle chicken encased in the casing, wherein the edible encased protein is dimensioned to simulate a chicken wing flat or drumette, wherein the insertion member simulates a natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone that corresponds to the respective chicken wing flat or drumette simulated by the edible encased protein product, wherein the insertion member comprises a thermo-resistant plastic, and wherein the insertion member is positioned entirely within the full muscle chicken encased in the casing.
2. The foodstuff of claim 1 , wherein the insertion member simulates the natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone by being shaped to simulate the natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone.
3. The foodstuff of claim 2 , wherein the insertion member further simulates the natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone by being dimensioned to simulate the natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone.
4. The foodstuff of claim 3 , wherein the casing is perforated.
5. The foodstuff of claim 3 , wherein the casing is smooth and non-perforated.
6. The foodstuff of claim 3 , wherein the casing is coated with a flavored or unflavored starch.
7. The foodstuff of claim 3 , wherein the edible encased protein product comprises a diameter of approximately 32-38 mm.
8. The foodstuff of claim 7 , wherein the casing is configured to be fried or baked.
9. The foodstuff of claim 8 , wherein the casing is infused with flavoring.
10. A protein product, comprising:
a natural or synthetic edible sausage casing;
a protein filler encased in the casing; and
an insertion member that extends along a longitudinal axis between first and second ends, wherein at least one end extends within the protein filler encased in the casing, wherein the casing together with the encased protein filler of the protein product is dimensioned to simulate a a chicken wing flat or drumette, wherein the insertion member simulates a natural chicken wing flat bone or drumette bone that corresponds to the respective chicken wing flat or drumette simulated by the casing together with the encased protein filler of the protein product, wherein the insertion member comprises a thermo-resistant plastic, and wherein the insertion member is positioned entirely within the protein filler encased in the casing.
11. The protein product of claim 10 , wherein the casing is perforated.
12. The protein product of claim 10 , wherein the casing is coated with a flavored or unflavored starch.
13. The protein product of claim 10 , wherein the protein filler comprises one of full muscle chicken, pork, beef, or plant based meat alternatives.
14. The protein product of claim 10 , wherein the casing together with the encased protein filler of the protein product includes a diameter of approximately 32-38 mm.
15. The protein product of claim 10 , wherein the casing is configured to be baked or fried.
16. The foodstuff of claim 1 , wherein the insertion member includes one or more passages that include flavoring.
17. The foodstuff of claim 16 , wherein the insertion member includes one or more perforations on a surface of the insertion member that release the flavoring included in the one or more passages.
