The flesh of the most valuable parts of dressed carcass (loin - musculus longissimus lumborum et thoracis, leg - musculus semitendinosus, rack - musculus triceps brachii) was subjected to analysis in terms of nutrition and quality in the meat breed Charollais (CH) and in the dual-purpose breed Stavropol Merino (SM). In comparison with SM breed, the CH breed had in m. semitendinosus an insignificantly higher dry matter content, lower fat content at the significance level, significantly higher protein content and insignificantly higher ash content. An insignificantly higher dry matter content, higher protein content and insignificantly lower ash content were determined in the flesh of loin and rack. The relatively highest energy value was found in the Charollais breed in the loin, but in the leg and rack SM breed had the higher energy value, 535.58 J and 535.82 J, respectively. Water retention in the flesh of the particular carcass cuts had the values 4.55 to 7.82 % in CH breed and from 3.87 to 6.75 % in SM breed.
