Fox Run Kitchenware Meat Tenderizer 4114

No, this mallet is made from natural beechwood and should be hand-washed only. Putting it in the dishwasher can cause the wood to warp, crack, or dry out over time.

A wooden tenderizer is much gentler on your cutting boards and countertops, preventing the deep scratches or gouges that heavy metal mallets often leave behind. It is also significantly lighter, which helps reduce wrist fatigue during repetitive tasks.

Simply wash it with warm, soapy water and dry it immediately with a towel. To keep the wood in top condition, you can occasionally rub it with a food-safe mineral oil to prevent it from drying out.

The dual-sided design offers versatility for different cuts of meat. One side typically features larger, more aggressive teeth for breaking down tougher fibers in cuts like chuck or round steak, while the other side is often smoother or has finer teeth for lighter pounding and flattening chicken breasts or veal.

Yes, it features an integrated hanging hole in the handle, making it easy to store on a kitchen rack or hook to keep your drawers organized.
