Reusable with neck tube Compact, lightweight design for easy storage and transport. Includes a protective neck tube for safe, convenient carrying and storage. Materials and durability Made from quality stainless steel and foodgrade ABS plastic for longlasting, foodsafe performance. Why you need it Faster, deeper marinade penetration: Small punctures created by the needle let marinades and seasonings flow through the meat instead of sitting on the surface, so flavors develop more quickly and evenly. Better tenderness without damage: The needles break internal connective tissue to improve texture while preserving the meat's external appearance and shape. Consistent results: thick cuts evenly without crushing or flattening them. Performance and care Reusable and low maintenance: Rinse with soapy water and use the included cleaning brush to remove residue. Dishwashersafe for quick cleaning. Lightweight and portable: Easy to carry to barbecues, picnics, or when traveling with outdoor cooking gear. Practical uses Grilling steaks: Create uniform punctures so marinade soaks into steaks before grilling, producing juicier, more flavorful results. Roasts and slow cooking: Improve texture and seasoning absorption in beef, pork, or lamb roasts for more tender, evenly flavored slowcooked meals. Poultry and thick cuts: Tenderize chicken breasts or thick pork chops without flattening them, reducing cooking time and improving bite. What it does not change Maintains the original shape and presentation of meat while improving flavor and texture. Designed for repeated use and easy cleaning; constructed from stainless steel and foodgrade ABS materials. Packaging note Product includes the steak needle and a neck tube for storage; minimal maintenance required.
