Venison is well known as a traditional meat type in Europe, and it is lower in calories, cholesterol and fat content than common cuts of beef, pork or lamb. The aim of the current research was to determine physico-chemical parameters such protein, fat, pH, moisture content as well microbiological quality of pickled venison during storage. Beef as a control was analyzed for comparison of obtained results. The meat (2×3×2 cm) pieces were pickled in vinegar marinade (composition: tomato sauce, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon, onion, parsley, paprika, basil, black pepper, rosemary, salt) at 4±2 °C temperature for 48±1 h. The marinated meat was placed in polypropylene trays and hermetically sealed with high barrier polymer film under modified atmosphere (C02 40%+N2 60%) without and with iron-based oxygen scavenger sachets (Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Europe Ageless®). As a control, packaging in air ambiance packed pickled products was used. During storage time, the moisture and protein values significantly (p is less than 0.05) decreased and pH, fat content and colony forming units significantly (p is less than 0.05) increased in the pickled venison samples of all packages. Slower changes in pH of pickled venison and in the protein and moisture content of marinated beef were observed in modified atmosphere with oxygen scavenger during storage.
