Jaccard Meat Tenderizer

[Samichlaus]

Any of you guys have one of these? Are they worth getting? Are they more for grilling than Q?

Absolutely!!! They are great. I used it on all cuts except filet mignon. Works great. Dont overdo it on steaks and boneless chicken boobs because it messes up the texture. Meat kinda jsut shreads as soona as u bite it.

I'd recommend it.



ps.. real cool avatar... got friends that fight in UFC.

[Samichlaus]

Thanks! I'm gonn order one.

Who fights in the UFC? It's my very most favorite sport in the world!

[tommykendall]

Never seen one of those - look pretty cool. Suppose you could make a rat trap of it?

[chad]

I've had one for a couple of years - they are great. I use it for things like round steak (or tenderizing for chicken fried steak), pork chops, boneless chicken, etc. One pass each side is usually enough.

I just ordered one....for cooking purposes only

[Bigmista]

I thought you weren't supposed to puncture your meat?

[parrothead]

I don't like watching mostly naked men in such tight quarters with each other. It makes me uncomfortable. Please change that, I am offended.

[parrothead]

Just making a point.

Oh, and violence like that offends me also.

Used one for years and they are really great on those fibrous, tougher cuts like flanks steak, chuck roast, etc. You can use on the more tender cuts like tenderloin if you like but it is not necessary.

I also used it if I was doing a fast season on grilling steaks. For example: It was getting late and time was getting away from whoever was in charge of cooking dinner. Pulled out some steak, thawed it, rub with some seasoning and proceeded to jacard the bajesus out of the meat to get the flavors in the meat before grilling. There you have it, a fast way to season/ marinate.

It is definitely a wise investment!

These things work great. Ok to puncture meat befor cooking, not during or after.

What's wrong with using a good old fashion fork?

:D Try doing a hundred chicken breasts with a fork! :mrgreen: The jacardizer is fast and very efficient. I've got the 48 blade model and it is SHARP.

If you grill a lot it's definately worth the costs.

[Stucue74]

Does anyone use this on brisket? Maybe it would help make a little more tender.

[Mark]

No thanks; I'd rather beat my meat. (Brian made me do it!)

Its okay Greg.

That UFC crap is all scripted.

Blood packets and the like

Even my 5 year old sees that its fake

[Mark]

Go back to the female ass-cheeks avatar.

[BigBelly]

I'd second that!

[chad]

The Jaccard can be used on brisket. I don't usually, because I cook it long enough to let it get tender! :D

I'm offende that you're offended. 8)

I use a Jaccard on brisket, but not really for tenderizing. I only have it pentrate about 1/8 of an inch into the meat. This helps the marinade, rub, etc. pentetrate better.

Academy has the 16 blade for $9.99 and the 48 blade for $19.99. I bought the 16, they were out of the 48, I will get that next time.

[chad]

The 16 is almost a waste of effort :D I've had the 48 (three rows of blades) for a couple of years and it's great.

And, $19.99 is an EXCELLENT price for it.

[BBQchef33]

i always use it on briskets. Do it from the bottom though... its a r eal bitch gettin it thru the fat cap. Goes tru, but hgets stuck and takes longer.. on the other(No fat cap side) I make 2 passes in each direction.

[jgh1204]

When I get the 48, I am going to super glue them together and make a 64,

[Samichlaus]

It arrived today.

Sofa-king sharp!

I saw this toy in action at Mobile for the first time.
Impressive and so "common sense".
No "puncture marks" or anything.
Did see the injection following the channels as we "pumped it up"--KEWL.

Gotta get me one!

I bought one last weekend but won't get to use it for a couple of weeks! :(

Dear Brethren,

During PMS time, always keep your Jaccard in a safe hiding place.

Love, Racer

[BigAl]

Don't need one for SPAM. :D
