This step extracts extra blood from the                  meat. It makes the choice cut more tender.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Add salt to the beef to get the blood to drain faster to tenderize.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><li class=\"\">Rinse salt from meat after sitting. Tap seasoning in with fingers so it does not fall off into the grill. This creates a better flavor.<\/li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><li class=\"\">When cooking Roast use mustard as a rub. Rub all over Beef. The mustard becomes hard shell holding in juices, thus, tenderizing the meat. Take the mustard shell off before eating.<\/li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Try with chicken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">\u00a0<strong>Pork<\/strong>:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Use a crock pot to tenderize Pork, by steaming. Let steam 20 to 40 minutes the meat will come apart and fall of bone easily, when done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">\u00a0\u00a0If frying pork, use a cold pan with olive oil before putting pork steak in pan before adding heat. The meat cooks more evenly and thorough. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Poultry<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">\u00a0\u00a0Cook as pork, falling off bone when done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Fillet of fish<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><li class=\"\">Score and season with seasoning of your choice, use butter and\/or lemon.<\/li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">\u00a0Bake 45 minutes \u00a0at 325 degree to 375 degrees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Fish will fall apart when done.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;These 10 tips have been chosen through extensive research and time.
