A study was conducted to find out the influence of fenugreek, garlic and black pepper powder supplementation on fresh and frozen meat of broiler. A total of 224 day-old cobb-400 broiler chicks were randomly divided into seven groups with four replicates of 8 chicks each and reared up to 6 weeks. Significant differences were found in (P<0.05) in tyrosine and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value in fresh and frozen thigh and breast muscle when compared to control group. The polyphenols and avonoids in fenugreek and garlic decreased the muscle fat oxidation. The high inclusion level of fenugreek (10g/kg) and garlic (10g/Kg) responsible for reduce the tyrosine and TBARS value in fresh and frozen meat.
