Kalmes Famous 2-in-1 Steak Seasoning & Tenderizer is a 5.5 oz bottle that seasons and helps tenderize in one easy step. Papain enzymes help tenderize while the bold, savory blend adds rich flavor to steak, chicken, pork, burgers, seafood, and vegetables.
It is the restaurant-proven family recipe from Kalmes Foods, rooted in five generations of Iowa cooking and a family restaurant and catering operation established in the 1980s in St. Donatus, Iowa. Keep a bottle by the grill, stovetop, or air fryer whenever you want tender, deeply seasoned food without juggling a separate seasoning and tenderizer.
