Do you know what this is just by looking at it?  I’m not sure that I would, because it looks so different from anything else I’ve ever seen that does this job.

It’s a meat pounder.  Ya know, a tenderizer.  Usually they look like this, but not this guy.  Nope.  He’s far too cool to look like the average meat hammer.

The unique design meat mallet is constructed of heavy cast steel and features an offset handle, more comfortable and easier to wield.  What I love about this design is that it’s flat… no spikes like the traditional kind has.  You know what that means?  No rips and tears in your plastic when you’re smashing.

Measures 11.5 inches long.  Not safe for dishwasher… sorry.  Hand wash this one.
