HOLGER is a handheld meat tenderiser featuring 48 criss-crossing stainless steel needles, designed to break up muscle fibres and tendons in cuts of meat for a more tender and flavourful result.

The needles penetrate approx. 22 mm into the meat, creating channels that help marinades and seasonings absorb deeper and faster. The spring-back mechanism automatically retracts the needles after each press, making handling safer during food preparation.

The Chop Is Tough. The Marinade Stays on the Surface. And Dinner Is Taking Longer Than Planned.

Tough meat with too many tendons and connective tissue is a common problem that neither long marinating nor high heat can always fully resolve.

Traditional pounding flattens the meat but rarely breaks up the fibres properly. HOLGER is designed to solve the problem from the inside – the needles penetrate deep into the meat, releasing tension in the muscle structure and creating shortcuts for marinade flavours.

48 Needles. Deeper Penetration. Tenderer Results.

The 48 criss-crossing needles in HOLGER work in a broad pattern, covering a large surface area with every press. The needle depth of approx. 22 mm reaches the middle layers of the meat, breaking down tendons and connective tissue that otherwise make the meat tough and chewy – even in thicker cuts like pork chops and steaks.

Features That Make HOLGER an Effective Kitchen Tool

48 criss-crossing stainless steel needles - Made from food-grade stainless steel with excellent hardness and durability, designed for direct contact with food. The criss-crossing pattern provides wider penetration per press.

Spring-back mechanism for safe handling - The built-in spring mechanism automatically retracts the needles back into a safe position after each press, reducing the risk of accidental skin contact during handling and storage.

Hollow handle with hanging feature - The ergonomic PP handle features a hole at the end for hanging on a hook or kitchen rail, saving counter space and keeping HOLGER easily accessible.

Needle depth of approx. 22 mm - The needles penetrate approx. 22 mm into the meat to reach muscle fibres deeply and create channels for active marinade ingredients – delivering a noticeable difference in flavour absorption compared to surface marinating for most meats.

Suitable for These Types of Meat

Steak and beef - Tenderises tougher cuts like flank steak, ribeye, and minute steak faster and with shorter marinating times.

Pork chops and pork shoulder - Releases tendons and connective tissue that otherwise make pork chewy, opening it up for deeper flavour absorption from marinades and rub blends.

Chicken cutlets and chicken thighs - Breaks down muscle fibres in chicken for a tenderer, juicier result when frying and grilling.

Lamb chops and leg of lamb - Tenderises lamb and prepares it for shorter marinating times without losing the shape of the cut.

How to Use HOLGER

• Place the piece of meat on a stable chopping board.
• Hold HOLGER by the handle and press the needle head down onto the meat's surface with even pressure.
• Work systematically across the entire piece of meat in an even pattern.
• Flip the meat and repeat on the other side if required.
• Marinate or season immediately after tenderising for optimal flavour absorption.
• Detach the needle head from the handle and wash under running water after use.

• Clean thoroughly after each use to maintain hygiene.
