Fat free meat products are provided which incorporate whole muscle components that are selectively and precisely separated from larger whole muscle groups, such as hams. The whole muscle components have weight percent fat of not greater than 1.5, usually less. A water composition is also incorporated. The fat free meat products have a fat percentage of about 0.9 weight percent or below. Typically, the fat free meat also includes finely textured reduced fat meat such as that processed by grinding and centrifuging. Residual trim cuts formed during subdivision of the whole muscle groups are greatly reduced in fat content by removing gristle or connective tissue or other fatty tissue from these residual trim cuts. |
