A great improvement over the rolling pin. The large flat surface prevents divets in the meat, and it's weight helps. I also like that I can use lots of hot soapy water for cleaning without worrying about wood.

Perfect balance and weight. I love it.

Pleased Meat Pounder

The Oxo meat pounder is 'just right' for both my husband's hand and mine - he has short wide fingers and mine are long and slender. We both liked the feel of the grip which made pounding much easier. The weight is evenly distributed and it's just the right weight ... not too heavy, not too light. It thins the meat but doesn't mash or mush it. It's easy to clean but fitting it into the drawer for storage was interesting. We decided to leave it on the countertop instead. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Much easier and quicker to use than the old-fashioned mallet style.

heavy, easy to use with good results.

Tenderize Less Expensive Cuts

This is an excellent product. Im have used it to tenderize less expensive cuts of beef. I moisten 2 pieces of [plastic wrap, putbthe meat between them and pound from the center out. It works great on flank steak.

Meat pounder

I like mine and use it often.

Very easy to use. Has a nice weight to it. It cleans up great, no fear of bacteria from chicken and meats.

Great Product

I used this pounder to make an Italian chicken dish. It worked great. It was very easy to use, and because of the size and weight, it only took a couple of minutes to flatten the chicken. I like the the product very much. It is also very well made, so I know I won't have to ever replace it. Oxo makes great products.

The fantastic OXO meat pounder

This is an excellently designed product that works great!
We use it mainly for making even thickness, thin, chicken cutlets.
It has taken a prime place in our arsenal of needful cooking gear,
and has replaced the 12

this meat pounder has a better design than any other that i have used.

I love the feel of this tool and its ease of use. The flat side is ample and made quick work of everything I've pounded with it the ribbed side is aggressive enough to handle tough meats without shredding the plastic freezer bag in which I usually pound meat.

All that and a cushy handle! It's my favorite piece among many OXO hand tools.

Great item!

For years I had one of the old mallet type meat pounders, finally one day the top flew off and I knew it was time for a new meat pounder. The weight of the OXO Meat Pounder does a lot of the work and the grip is comfortable. I typically find OXO has superior kitchen gadgets.

he loves it!

I bought this for my husband after seeing something similar on

You can't beat the quality of OXO products. They are the best. The company is wonderful to deal with. On the rare occassion that something is wrong with the product, they will replace it. No questions asked.

meat pounder

I like the large surface area of this meat pounder.

have several meat pounders and this one is the best. Even bought one as a gift

Works Great

This was the pounder I have been looking for. I have one that looks like a hammer and it is hard for me to use. With this one I have more control. My husband liked it very much too. I would buy this again.

Smashing Chicken

Purchased this meat pounder to make my Smashed Chicken and it does the trick!!

This is the best meat pounder i've ever used. The soft grip handle is perfect for those of us who suffer from arthritis. The large diameter of the pounding surface and the weight of the pounder make it easy to use.
