A meat hammer, also known as a meat mallet, is a kitchen tool used to tenderize meat. It consists of a heavy head with a textured surface, usually made of metal or wood, attached to a handle. The textured surface helps break down the tough fibers in the meat, making it more tender and easier to chew.
Meat hammers have been used for centuries to prepare meat for cooking. In the past, they were often made of stone or wood. Today, meat hammers are typically made of metal, such as aluminum or stainless steel. They come in various sizes and shapes, with some designed for specific types of meat.
