Pounded out two chicken breasts in under a minute and they cooked so much more evenly. The textured faces really grab the meat instead of sliding off like my old flat mallet did.

Finally, a way to take out a bad day on a pork shoulder instead of my coworkers. The 1 LB weight gives it real momentum, and the two textured sides handle everything from breaking down chuck to flattening a chicken breast without me having to switch tools.

The two textured surfaces really do the job—I pressed a chuck roast flat in under a minute and the fibers just fell apart after cooking. Pounding out my frustration on a tough cut is oddly satisfying, and the weight feels solid in my hand without being unwieldy.
