From a regular Amazon customer who PAID the public price for these, my UNBIASED opinion …. THESE CLAWS ARE GREAT!!!
DISCLAIMER: I am a regular Amazon customer and PAID the same price for this product that was publicly available to everyone else. I did not get this for free or at any special hidden discount to write a review. This is my HONEST opinion as a real paying customer and it is not biased in anyway by getting “paid with a product” to write it.I have now used these claws to shred pork, beef and chicken and they are so much better than my old method of using two kitchen forks. The claws: 1) greatly speed up the shredding process, and 2) pulls the meat into pieces perfect for great BBQ sandwiches. They are sharp and dishwasher safe if placed in the top rack.How much do I like these? I recently have ordered a second set to give to my married daughter and her husband so they can make pulled pork, beef or chicken sandwiches when I come for a visit! I love BBQ.BONUS: Here is super easy slow cooker/crock pot recipe I found online for PULLED BEEF that can be served with BBQ sauce or with au jus (like a French dip sandwich). I have made this 4 or 5 times now and it has been great every time!1) Take 3 to 4 lbs of beef chuck roast, 1 pack (1 oz) of powdered hidden valley ranch, 1 pack (1 oz) of powdered au jus gravy/sauce, and 1 stick of butter. Put the beef chuck roast in the slow cooker (if one large piece of meat, I cut in two and add both) and immediately top meat with the powdered ranch, the powdered au jus gravy and the stick of butter (just dump them in). Put the lid on the slow cooker, and set to LOW heat for 7 to 8 hours. You might want to stir things in the slow cooker once about an hour or two into the process. Recover and let it cook.2) After the 7 to 8 hours in the slow cooker, remove the beef (but save what’s left in slow cooker if you want au jus style). Shred/pull the beef using the CLAWS, of course. If you want au jus style, skim the fat from the au jus gravy that is left in the slow cooker and what’s left after you throw out the skimmed fat is a tasty au jus. If you want BBQ pulled beef, just add your favorite BBQ sauce (generously) to your pulled beef sandwich.A huge thanks to CAVE TOOLS for making the whole process of pulling the meat so much easier!

Makes me feel like a pro!
Here in the South, pulled pork is a regular on every restaurant menu and at every wedding and family picnic. I’m no Martha Stewart, so I was worried when it was my turn to make this particular family favorite. While a lot of advice saw me safely through the flavoring and cooking, I had an awful time actually “pulling” the pork into the required small pieces.I was browsing through Amazon’s cookwares pages hoping to find something I could fashion into a tool to more easily pull the meat apart. I didn’t know what I was looking for because I didn’t know anything like meat claws existed! I was so happy to accidentally click on the Cave Tools page. It not only looked like exactly what I needed, I loved the pages of photographs and suggestions. It really helped and made me feel home free.I loved that they went into detail about the company, how it started and how they developed this handy tool. It made even a novice cook like me feel I was in good hands. These guys really sound like they know their business — and they must — it’s a great tool.I ordered the meat claws and was so relieved they performed exactly as promised. They sure gave an inexperienced cook like me a lot of confidence. If you think this kind of tool would make your life easier too, I would highly recommend you consider this one sold by Cave Tools. As you can see from their Amazon page, this company is a class act!

Good product, misleading info
The product was as expected and works well. However, the insert said not to forget downloading ‘The Grill Master’s Essential Barbecue Recipe Book”, however the website address provided did not lead to this recipe book download. Minor inconvenience

works great
These were very easy to use and worked exactly as they are described. Worked so much better than forks. Shredded pulled pork and chicken easily.

I wanted a better method. I ordered a set of these
These meat claws are strong, sharp, and really do make shredding cooked meat easier. Before I bought these, I pulled pork (and beef, and chicken) with two forks. That always took more time and effort than I thought it should, and my hands were always tired and sometimes achy afterwards. So, for an upcoming family gathering where I planned to pull two whole pork shoulders, I wanted a better method. I ordered a set of these, but as the date of the gathering drew near, and I worried I would not get these claws in time, I bought a different pair of meat-pulling claws at a local store. Then, these arrived, in time for the gathering. As a result, I was able to “test drive” both types of tools. I have to say that using these Cave Tools claws is the superior way to pull pork shoulder into shreds. The grips on these tools allow them to work like extensions to my knuckles, and they really do allow the user to pull an entire pork shoulder into shreds in just a couple of minutes, versus what I estimate would have been 10 to 15 minutes of work using two forks, and would have resulted in tired “people paws” afterward. I have only one suggestion for an improvement, if it is not a technical impossibility of the plastic-molding process: make the backs of the claws solid and smooth; there are small indentations in the backs that can hang onto little shreds of meat that make cleanup a little more work than a smooth, solid back would do.

Meh
Ad should show a photo of the other side – hollow plastic. Works okay. Just a little harder to clean.Not worth returning.

Great pork shredders
So, I’ve gotten into smoking and it was just a matter of time before I was going to try pulled pork. Man, where have these been all my life. Way better than trying to shred it with two forks…lol.

Amazing quality best dollars spent

I purchased this item as a lot of reviews I has read said the bear claws brans was the best and a better quality, so paid the extra for these and shipping only to find they do not live up the their name. When they arrived I noticed that the colour was brown not the gun metal grey as ordered, however as these were for a gift, I didn’t have the time to change these. Whilst the claws themselves work fine, after only using these twice, the bear claws name has rubbed off completely, so I might as well have bought a different brand, rather than paying for the bear claws brand. Would just purchase from an AUS seller next time and save the added expense.

Best thing to use for pulled pork or other meats

They do what theyâre supposed to do – shred meat

These definitely do the job, but just a heads up to anyone ordering. It says in the product description that these are âmetalâ ⦠they are not, they are black plastic.
