There is disclosed a method and a plant for inspecting slaughtered poultry, particularly broilers, where poultry carcasses suspended by the legs are moved to a processing station (10) by a first conveyor (2), where viscera packs are eviscerated and are transferred to and suspended from a second conveyor (12) while the carcasses remain suspended in the first conveyor (2), where the said first conveyor (2) before or after the processing station is moved past a control station (14) for inspecting the carcasses, where selection of a certain carcass for rejection or closer inspection automatically results in taking down this and the associated viscera pack, where the second conveyor (12) moves past a control station (20) after the processing station (10) for inspecting the viscera packs, where selection of a certain viscera pack for rejection or closer inspection automatically results in taking down this and the associated carcass, and where carcasses and associated viscera packs that have been taken down are placed juxtaposed on a special inspection conveyor belt. Hereby is achieved the possibility of cross-contamination which may be avoided completely or reduced by simple means.
