Abstract
Aim:
This study aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the nutritional composition of Archachatina marginata meat processed using the Nigerian Stored Products Research Institute (NSPRI) smoking kiln, highlighting the benefits of this improved smoking method in preserving the nutritional integrity of this valuable food source.

Methods:
African giant snails were procured from “Oje” market in Ibadan East LGA, Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Samples were cracked, degutted, washed, and rinsed in clean water. Thereafter, treatment was applied by brining, then, samples were smoked in the kiln. Smoke-dried A marginata products were characterized for their proximate and mineral composition according to standard.

Results:
Results of proximate composition indicated that there was good retention of nutrients of crude fat, ash, crude fiber, protein, moisture content (3.0% ± 0.46%, 1.83% ± 0.20%, 0.13% ± 0.32%, 75.7% ± 0.21%, and 17.61% ± 0.34%, respectively); and energy content of (1462.45 ± 26.70 KJ 100 g-1). Furthermore, the result of mineral composition indicated a significant amount of potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, and iron retained (104.87 ± 0.30, 220.95 ± 0.41, 210.90 ± 0.30, 15.49 ± 0.33, and 8.91 ± 0.24 mg 100 g-1, respectively).

Conclusion:
NSPRI smoking kiln® aided in better smoking efficiency and maintained the nutritional value of the meat. By leveraging improved smoking methods like the NSPRI smoking kiln, stakeholders can enhance the nutritional profile of snail meat while addressing concerns related to traditional smoking practices.

Key words: snail meat, protein, fat, smoking, minerals, nutrition
