Meat tenderizer

I bought a cheap Sportsman's Guide meat cuber/tenderizer and ran some deer steaks through it and they came out great. Battered and fried and they were delicious. A more expensive model would be better I am sure. I had to keep the steaks at 1/2" or less or they wouldn't go through but for under $30 couldn't beat it. Something else to try if you haven't already.
