Considering the significance of natural antioxidants to preserve meat, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of a deflavored and decolorised extract of rosemary (StabilRose™) for the production and preservation of naturally colored fresh meat. Oxidative rancidity of meat and color degradation of paprika oleoresin were exploited as model systems and compared with butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA). The results showed similar efficacy for 3% carnosic acid extract and BHA, with further enhancement in efficacy with respect to the carnosic acid content. A synergetic antioxidant effect of carnosol on carnosic acid content was also noticed to an extent of 1:1 (w/w) ratio, and further increase in carnosol content showed no improvement in the antioxidant efficacy. Finally, stabilized paprika and optimized rosemary extract containing carnosic acid and carnosol in 1:1 (w/w) ratio was successfully applied to produce naturally colored meat suitable for storage at 4 ± 1 °C.
