One of my favorite meals to eat is Schnitzel. My grandmother who was Austrian used to fix this meal for us growing up. I never realized how much work was involved until I got to the point of wanting to make this meal for my family. For those not fimiliar, Schnitzel is a thinly sliced piece of veal or pork. Aside from the thinly sliced meat, the real work happens when you break out the meat mallet and hammer away in an attempt to further tenderize the meat.

When I received this product I knew almost instantly what it would be used for. The thin slices of pork were rolled through with ease and without much effort. A once time consuming (not to mention rather loud) process was made almost effortless thanks to the Mr. Tenderizer. I’ve only used it for the Schnitzel dish so far, but my next dish will be thinly sliced venison which will then be breaded and fried. This product is one of those kitchen tools that you may not use all the time, but you’ll be glad you have it once it’s needed. I only wish my grandmother would’ve been around to try this product out, one of her biggest complaints about cooking Schnitzel was having to swing that meat mallet in her old age. Anyone in need of an easy way to tenderize some meat should definitely check into the Mr. Tenderizer I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
