Abstract
This article contains temperature logger datasets obtained for refrigerated cartons of Australian vacuum packaged chilled beef stored under near ideal conditions (∼- 1 °C) in Australia (CONTROL) and shipped via land and sea to three destinations in China (China-1, China-2, China-3) described in detail previously [1]. Cartons were stored for 84, 98, 120 and 140 days postslaughter. Temperature data were acquired during shipping and storage using i-buttons (Thermocron-TCS, Baulkham Hills, Australia) and LogTags (TRIX-16, LogTag Australia, Baulkham Hills, Australia).
