Good Grips Easy-Clean Bladed Meat Tenderizer, White | Stamp Tenderizer, 50 Blades Create Pockets, Cuts Marinating Time, Ideal for Steaks and Chops

Didn't think much about meat tenderizers until I started using this one regularly, and now I reach for it constantly. The 50-blade design does what a mallet can't — it tenderizes without flattening or mangling the shape of the meat, so you get the texture improvement without losing the presentation. The clear base is a genuinely smart design choice. You can see exactly where the blades have already been, so you can work across a piece of chicken or steak evenly without guessing. Small detail, big difference in practice. Cleanup is easier than I expected for something with this many blades. The top pulls apart for a proper rinse, and the whole thing goes on the top rack of the dishwasher. The safety lock when it's not in use is also a nice touch — blades stay covered in the drawer, no surprises. Marinades penetrate noticeably better after using this, which means less time marinating and more flavor getting into the meat. If you cook a lot of chicken breasts or tougher cuts, this thing earns its counter space quickly. Classic OXO — well thought out, no complaints.

So you want a tender piece of cheap meat - well this helps. I use it on Flat meats and then Marinate it, Be advised OXO made this to last...it's really sharp. but cleaning is a tactical maneuver. I use a cheap "fines" brush (Fines are those pieces of metal that are so fine they get stuck in your work) to reach into and between the blades. Forget using a tenderizing mallet or round - those you use to thin and flatten for pan frying. But Combined with a $4lb Round steak you can a have a great chicken fried steak (Tenderize, Flatten, Bread and Fry)

Easy to use and dissemble for washing in the dishwasher. I have an energy-limiting disability and found this product to require very little effort.

Works well for short cuts, but for a roast it needs to penetrate more.

Really nice tool. More than razor sharp. But safeguards work as designed. Highly recommend

Although this is called a tenderizer, I bought it for another purpose - to pierce the skin on pork belly skin and duck skin. Doing so makes for better crisping of the skin, which is typically done by either scoring or pricking with a sharp skewer. Using this tool makes the job much faster and more precise. And I appreciate the typical OXO quality. It's solidly built, the blade tips are very sharp, and the safety lock is a nice touch. I get great results with it, and I will recommend it to dinner guests who say "This is delicious. Can I have the recipe."

Excellent tenderizer worked great. and such a wonderful company. Very well made.

It truly does make the steak more tender but the spring in the knife guard is too strong. The strong spring ends up smashing down the steak. My 3/4" steak ended up being a 3/8" steak after I was done tenderizing. And with such a thin steak it is not really possible to get a good sear while keeping the inside to a medium rare. I am going to try to cut off some of the spring. This probably won't work. I may be able to replace it with a hardware store generic spring if I can find one that fits and isn't too strong. Too bad OXO's testing didn't uncover this issue and design a solution. They are usually very good at design. :-( UPDATE: I bought a replacement spring at a very well stocked hardware store. I had to increase the diameter of the spring a little to match the old spring. A tedious hour long activity with two pliers, ugh. Now the knife guard presses down about 1/3 as hard as original. Haven't tried it on a steak yet. Stay tuned. UPDATE 2: After replacing the original spring with one having about 1/3 the force I have solved one problem and created another. Now the knife guard doesn't smash the steak like crazy but, instead, removing the knife array from the steak is a real chore. (I use this tool on a USDA Choice Top Round, 1.67 lb, no dry brining or marinade or whatever, nothing, and it came out very tender. This tool did work well. But...) Even when holding the steak down with large tongs, I have to struggle, rocking the device back and forth, for 5 or 10 seconds to get the blades free of the steak. Not good. There are 5 rows of blades with each row having 10 blades (50 blades in total). I'm going to see if there is a way to remove some of the rows or columns of knives. (Maybe this is way Jaccard sells a model with only one row of 16 blades!) UPDATE 3: Yep, if you completely disassemble the device you can unstack the blade sets. I replaced four of the five sets with similarly thick washers, just to maintain the same overall fit of the blade block when placed back into the molded alignments of the case. That leaves one, easy to clean, row of blades that should not be difficult to pull out of the meat (fingers crossed). See the photos, before and after. Now to see if this works! Stay tuned. FINAL UPDATE: The single row of blades works fine. The knife guard hardly does anything (ignoring the safety aspects of it) so I removed it. Now, with one row of blades and no guard I can quickly make progress on a steak without impediment. I'm done "optimizing" this thing. I think OXO got caught up in a blade count arms race (50 blades, fooey!) and compromised on real usability. So that's my story. YMMV.

Jedes Fleisch, das ich bisher damit bearbeitet habe wurde butterweich. Schade, dass ich diesen Artikel noch nicht früher entdeckt habe.

I purchased this some time ago and have used it several times. It's OXO and it's good. Clean it right after use and it's easy to clean. The blades tenderize well.

いい商品ではあるが、洗いにくいのが難点かな。

I bought this to replace one of the "hammer" type tenderisers. This was used on some ribeye steaks and the results were perfect, very tender. Great for preparing meat and poultry before marinating. It's quite a small item and easily fits in a kitchen drawer. Really pleased with it and will definitely get lots of use. Glad I went for this tenderiser rather than the hammer type as I think this does a better job. Recommended.

Buen producto pero el resorte es muy duro , me extraña que después de tantas críticas al resorte el fabricante no haya cambiado la dureza por ello de doy 4 estrellas
