Badia Meat Tenderizer, 2 oz

Badia Meat Tenderizer in a 2 oz shaker is the small-kitchen answer for tough cuts on a tight clock. Papain — the natural enzyme from papaya — softens muscle fibers while salt, garlic, and spices season the surface. One shake handles both jobs.

How to Use

Sprinkle over both sides of the meat, pierce with a fork to push the seasoning past the surface, and let it rest 30 minutes on the counter or a few hours chilled. Then straight to the pan, grill, or oven. For a fast wet marinade, whisk 1 to 2 teaspoons into oil with lime juice and coat. Don't rinse.

Common Uses

Carne asada, fajita meat, pork chops, chicken thighs for the grill, kebab cubes, milanesa, stew beef, and weeknight stir-fry strips. Works on game meats and lean cuts that tend to seize up.

Why This Format

The 2 oz shaker fits the spice drawer and skips the mallet, the plastic wrap, and the overnight brine. The blend is pre-balanced — papain plus seasoning in correct ratio — so you get tender meat and built-in flavor in one motion, not three.
