A question about beating my meat
Which side of the hammer do you use when tenderizing steaks? Do the big spikes work better then the smaller ones? Or do you use a smooth hammer? I have never quite gotten the hang of beating my meat properly and could really use the advice since Im cooking some chicken fried steak for dinner...

It depends. Are you a lefty, a righty, or a switch-hitter?

It was only a matter of time...
Big spikes for steak and beef, small spikes to flatten chicken.. /tk

Why would you want to tenderize chicken? I've never had tough chicken unless it was seriously overcooked...

It's not so much tenderizing as it is flattening.
If you're trying to bake more than 1 piece of chicken, it's usually better to have all the pieces the same thickness...plus, thin chicken cooks faster/more evenly, so flattening it can help... /tk
