Product Description
The wide smooth bottom and 24 ounces of weight go to work to quickly flatten meats to an even thickness. Need to tenderize? No problem, the pyramid shaped teeth break down tough meat fibers to improve marinating and tenderness.

Amazon.com Review
OXO's i-series meat pounder flattens or tenderizes boneless cuts of meat and poultry for use in marinades, sautes, and tender baked dishes, and is specially designed to absorb the impact of hammering so your hand stays comfortable throughout. This meat pounder features pyramid-shaped teeth and a cushioned handle with a unique nonslip grip. Use the side with the pyramid teeth for tenderizing, or use the pounder's smooth top to efficiently flatten meats. The entire head employs a nonstick coating so meat fibers and juices clean off easily. The pounder weighs a robust 24 ounces--enough to do most of the work but not enough to tire you out--and is dishwasher-safe. --Rivers Janssen

Perfect for pounding December 2, 2008
Jazzy (Baltimore)
I love this item. It has a great weight, not too heavy but not too light either. The size of the pounding end is really nice. It flattens out your chicken breasts nice and evenly with only a few whacks.

You use a very smooth motion with it and it doesn't take a lot of wrist and hand strength to use it.

I even tackled half frozen chicken with it one day and it handled it with only a bit more effort.

Great buy.

Way better than hammer style tools July 4, 2008

I have bought a couple of different types of tenderizers or smashers but this one is designed well you don't have to compensate for angles lets say your using a pan or tray with a side wall the hammer style will not allow you to strike the meat flatly or if like me you have large hands I can't tell you how many times my knuckles got tenderized before the meat did most hammer style tenderizers don't have an allowance for large hands holding the tool so as you strike the meat you more than likely will bang your knuckles first which absorb the blow more than the meat will.
This tool also has a larger surface area and more weight than most hammer types this will allow people to use less force when using the tool also I was able to flatten some chicken breasts much easier and quicker using mostly the weight of the tool and a little auxilliary power from me, and the breasts pounded out to about a 1/4" thick perfect for rolling up and stuffing with any filling.
One suggestion I would make would be to use a zip-lock type of bag sealed with a little extra moisture not dry this will allow you to control the mess if any also the liquid helps to reduce friction when pounding and flattening the meat and will also make handling raw chicken safer to prepare not too mention a perfect way to introduce a marinade to the meat with out dirtying a bowl.
All in all I'm very pleased with this item and will be using this on many cooking projects.

great tool May 9, 2008
Gerald S. Peabody (Amherst, Ohio USA)
This is a great addition to any kitchen where a cook likes to get creative. I read a review in a highly respected cook's magazine that didn't like this style of pounder because they said the motion to use it was not comfortable. Their recommended tool was the equivalent of slapping the meat with the back of a shovel. This tool worked great. It is the perfect weight and very easy to control. The motion is very natural. You will be able to prepare a lot of product with this without wearing out your wrists. Sometimes you have to ignore the pros and go with what you think is best. You won't be sorry with this great little tool.

Food therapy! December 24, 2007
Sean P. Logue (Research Triangle Park, NC USA)

Standard mallets work, but put a tremendous amount of stress on your wrist every time they hit. The design of this one redirects the stress from your wrist to your hand, so your joints won't take a pounding.

The grippy, soft oxo rubber handle is thick and easy to hold, and the rubber extends past the handle onto the base, where it creates a nice base for your hand to rest on while absorbing shock. The weight of the solid aluminum base is all in the base, which keeps it from wobbling during the swing. All in all, a very well thought out design and good reason to toss the old fashioned wooden mallets you may be using now.

I've used mine for pounding chicken breasts flat. Just put them on a cutting board with plastic wrap over them, and pound them into an even thickness. This makes the cook more quickly and evenly. No more thick spots or parts that lift off the pan and undercook, or thinner spots that overcook.

Works really well for pounding garlic flat, too. Just peel the clove, put it on a cutting board, and give it a good whack with the smooth metal bottom. It's food therapy!
