@Lit There's no denying the RTIC vs Yeti 100% "copycat" and likely copyright infringements. And I'd agree from a business standpoint it's dirty pool and teetering on unethical business practices. However, from a consumer's view it's $savings plain and simple. I never said I thought it was right.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

I worked as an instructor at a vocational school with a culinary program and every culinary instructor that ever taught at the school always said if you don't want to get food poising just never eat from a salad bar in a restaurant! Go figure!

I use what looks like a square roofing hammer. Is this Jaccard better?

My Christmas prime rib from Costco last year came jaccarded. It didn't say anywhere on the package that they had done it and I didn't realize until I sliced it. Of course it was cooked nice and rare. No one got sick but I would have preferred they didn't do it.Chicago, IL - Large and Small BGE - Weber Gasser and Kettle

Costco does this to many of their meats if you read the package.

Knock Off describes virtually every "home use" kitchen/cooking vessel, mixer, sous vide, vac sealer, slicer, blah blah. I wanted the Hobart HL1400-1STD but, I'm cheap and got a quality KA instead.(Old small batch Hobart are almost identical to KA besides the fact the gears on Hobart are exceptional...bad vs example but, you get the idea).
As products are going through R&D if they can find a more economical way of building a product similar to another and maintain quality thereby saving $ and increasing their profits and pass savings on to the consumer...I say good on ya.------------------------------

DMW said:I would recommend treating jaccard-ed meat similar to ground meat. While the risk of pushing bacteria from the surface into the interior of the muscle is not as great as when grinding, it is possible. I don't like cooking my meat to well done, so I'm not a fan. The exception would be sous vide, where you can cook at lower temps for longer times to pasteurize.
Again, that's just me, everyone needs to determine their risk profile accordingly.
The best use, IMO is for cutlets and schnitzels and chicken fried steak. Jaccard can provide a "you can cut it with a fork" texture. We tend to cook kabobs to 140º+ so I also Jaccard the sirloin chunks.
Chicken breast really doesn't need it, but you can get great souvlaki if the breasts are tenderized first.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad! -
@RRP
I purchased one on your recommendation. Haven't had the chance to use it yet. But that's fixing to change real soon. Thinking of trying it on some heavy Flank that I got my hands on.

As those worried about making people sick, I have used it on every brisket I have cooked on the egg and no one has gotten sick yet. I clean it immediately after using it.

It's prechewing
We used to buy xheap steaks when i was a kid that had been needled to death to make them 'tender'.

The only concern is with steaks, which are generally (in this crowd at least) only cooked to 130 or so. One reason you can eat beef much more rare than other meats is because the meat is sterile, the only things that could make you sick are on the surface of the meat, pushing those into the center can let them survive the cooking process.
There is a reason that Costco puts a label on their steaks (most of which, if not all, are blade tenderized) suggesting to cook to an IT of 160. Now I've eaten Costco steaks cooked rare/Med rare and not had an issue and probably will again. But there is a risk associated with eating their steaks (or any beef jaccarded) that is only cooked to medium rare.LBGE

@sgh the Mexican groceries here will offer to run your flank steak through a tenderizer machine when you buy it. The Jaccard I would think would do about the same thing.
Heres a a consumer reports article about it. I'll be reading the labels at Costco more carefully now if I plan to eat the steak rare as usual!
