Title: Meat grain template

Abstract: This meat grain template is formed from a three-dimensional prism having a spaced upper end and lower faces. The lower face contacts the meat and inclined passages are provided lying on a common plane perpendicular to the lower face and extending through the prism to receive and direct grain markers into the meat. The upper end openings of the passages define at least one reference line by which the template may be rotated into correct alignment prior to insertion of the marker. A method of determining the direction of the meat grain for specific units of meat is disclosed which facilitates cutting the meat across the grain.
