Ah...I have a whole bag of mesquite wood pellets. Thanks!Keawe wood is pretty much mesquite wood with a pretty name.
It can. Aldoph's Tenderizer has Bromelain or papaya as a Protease enzyme. Bromelain mostly in the stem/core of pineapple breaks down protein. It's good to eat pineapple with food to aid in digestion and is an anti inflammatory eaten on an empty stomach. If you eat enough pineapple it'll break down the protein cells in your mouth and is painful. There's a stupid pineapple challenge where kids attempt to eat an entire pineapple rind as well but the bromelain makes the rind unbareably painful to chew because of the protease action.Doesn't the pineapple juice injection turn the meat to mush?

Wow, I never knew Kiwi was a tenderizer.I know of the mouth "sores"...I really like fresh pineapple.
A long time ago I used fresh kiwi to tenderize a steak. I squished in all over and left it on for just 5 minutes. The steak fell apart like wet sand running through your fingers at the beach. OK, maybe not that fast, but it was not a happy ending.
I never tried it again. I have thought that if I peeled one end of the kiwi and rubbed it on the steak (like applying Chap-Stick or deodorant) the outcome would have been much better.
