Meat Tenderizer for Kitchenaid, Meat Tenderize Attachment for Kitchenaid and Cuisinart Stand Mixer with Stainless Gears, White

Received & pleased.

I received this item and was at first very impressed with the all metal rollers with metal gears. It appeared to be very durable. There is a white plastic cover on this model that covers the gears and rollers and helps guide the meat through the mechanism.At first I was concerned that it wasn't tenderizing the meat as it was only making dimples and not making cuts like store bought minute steaks. I ran the steaks through once going one direction then gave a quarter turn and ran it through again. Then turned it and ran it through one more time. The process flattened the meat slightly and stretched it out.What I found wa it did actually tenderize in this process, as when it was cooked into my daughter's favorite, Salisbury Steak it was fork tender and fell apart.Clean up was very easy, the instructions says that it can be placed in the dishwasher, with the aluminum rollers and gears I was a little leary, though I am sure it would clean well, I was concerned that it would shorten the life of the product. I gave it a quick spray with dish spray and a dish brush scrub and it was ready to drain dry and put away.As I state in the headline, I was very pleasantly surprised with the results, the ease of use and cleaning. Would definitely recommend. Though I have only used it for round steak/salisbury steak, I am sure that it will work just as well with pork, though the instructions says to not use on more delicate meats like chicken breast, I would be tempted to give it a try just to see if it would flatten out for easier stuffed chicken rolls. You would definitely not want to try to use on fish or that type of meat as I am sure it would disintegrate in that process.

This works so well that I was finally able to chew meat! lol Seriously, meat nowadays isn't nearly as tender as it used to be. A tenderizer like this is almost a necessity, in my opinion. I'm so glad it's easy to use. Keep the kids away from it when it's running!

This meat tenderizer was an absolute breeze to use!No more using a hammer to tenderize meat! My husband was so excited when this came, he got out the round steaks to thaw. They were sliced fairly thick, so I thought maybe three to four passes before results but...This gave results in only two passes. My husband (who has used these before in commercial kitchens) was absolutely over the moon with this. He did say that this is totally for home kitchen work, but it is absolutely stellar for that use.I am also supposed to note here that I have an Elite Kitchen Aide mixer; they have a stronger motor than the standard option. Yours may take a few more passes depending upon the motor yours has. This has nothing to do with the attachment you received.The plastic guard comes off and goes back on easily. This makes for very easy cleanup. Though the guard seems breakable. If it should break, the piece is still usable, just operate it with extreme caution because this will pulverize your fingers and draw down and pulverize anything else that gets into it!But it is perfect for tenderizering tougher cuts of meat. Remember to cut them into manageable sizes before feeding them into this.Happy cooking!

This tenderizer is really only useful on already thin pieces of meat that you've hammered with a tenderizer which creates work. The plastic its built with isn't very sturdy and it struggles to stay in the attachment gear as it works itself free from the tension mount. I'm not sure it's very useful for what I needed it for but maybe there are other ways to use it that it could add more value?

The media could not be loaded. I love this attachment! It works like a charm, allowing me to tenderize meats whenever I wish, without having to pound it with a tenderizing hammer thing. NOTE: you shouldn't use this for chicken or fish.This handy attachment tenderized -- or 'cubed', as in 'cube steak' -- the entire platter of meat shown in the video in just a matter of minutes. I froze some of the cubed round steaks and used the rest for delicious Swiss Steak.While the listing mentions this attachment can be used with the Kitchenaid and Cuisinart stand mixers, I want to add that it also works with the GE Profile Smart Stand Mixer, which is what I have.I particularly like that this product is so soundly constructed, with actual METAL gears, which is kind of rare these days, in my experience. It doesn't struggle at all as you feed the steaks through.Anything that improves my life, making it better gets a big thumbs-up from me. This fabulous tenderizer is on that list!
