Step 1

Step 1: Slice your piece of meat on 45-degree angle, only cutting 75% of the way through––do not cut all the way to the bottom. Make your slices about ¼-inch thick.

Step 2

Step 2: Flip the piece of meat over and repeat Step 1, slicing at a 45 degree angle in the opposite direction.

Step 3

Step 3: Flip the meat back over, and slice at a 90 degree angle this time, again 75% of the way through, with a ¼-inch between each slice.

Step 4

Step 4: Flip the meat over and repeat Step 3.

Step 5

Step 5: Now gather the meat into a pile, and using the part of the knife or cleaver closest to the handle, rapidly chop the meat from left to right a couple times.
