"Food therapy!"
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!

"Very easy to hold while pounding your meat"
I can pound my meat from a few inches to almost a foot in diameter.

Comfortable grip, cleans up easily.

"This works great!!"
It sounds funny, but this is the best meat pounder I've ever had. The angle that you hold it makes it very easy and very effective - I love it!!

"OXO Meat Pounder"
I used to use a rolling pin to make chicken and veal cutlets thin but the OXO Good Grips is tremendously easy to use and works great. I reccommend it highly.

"Perfect Pounder"
Great size and weight. Easy to handle and clean. I'm donating my old pounders to Goodwill! This one makes them obsolete!

What our customer's say!

"Perfect for pounding", 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.

"haven't used it yet but . . . ", Yoy need something like a chain saw to get into this absurd packaging!!! I thought I heard amazon was cutting down on wasteful clam shell packaging!!!

"Way better than hammer style tools", 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", 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.

"Not the right action for effective pounding", I bought this based on the previous good reviews. My experience with it differs greatly.
It is so deep that it hits my wrist very painfully with every pound.
I was hoping this design would give me more control than my four inch cast iron pan with chicken breasts and it does, slightly, but for everything else the action is just not powerful enough.
You need the leverage of a long handle.
I am going to buy the cast iron pounder with the offset handle next time around and just go slower with chicken breasts.

"$14.95 for Italian lamb chops and smashing ginger", This is the preferred style for a meat flattener and it has the necessary weight. This is the best priced product with these qualifications.

"Great!", This is the first meat pounder I have ever owned, and I've wanted one for a long time. This one works really great, having a larger flat pounding surface, and it's easy to use and clean. Great product!

"Pretty good", Alton Brown said "Buyit", so I did, it works well.
It doesn't make the Texas Chain Saw Massacre mess the old school spiky mallet does, but it doesn't break up connective tissue on cheap cuts, either.
If you have a carpaccio habit- this is the tool!
I have four meat pounders, each one does something somewhat different, and I wonder if it's not just a gadjet fetish... But this is best in show for making it thinner. Like veal.

"meat pounder", Love this product.It has two ways of using it. Pound out the meat flat or tenderize the meat. Easy to clean and store away.

"Exactly the right tool", I've used it to break up chocolate, crush tortilla chips, and pulverize eggshells (for the garden). In fact, for everything except pounding meat. But I'm sure it will do a great job at that when I get around to trying it.
It's got plenty of heft, a comfortable handle, and just feels well-balanced.
Another OXO triumph.
