Hello, what is the accepted process on whole meat clods in a vacuum tumbler. I have a Pro-Cut KMV-25, and was wondering when doing a pork butt/shoulder or brisket or even pork belly for bacon, do you do a marinade injection AND tumble marinade? Or is that not necessary. I thought about doing a marinade with added food coloring to see how deeply the vacuum tumbler will penetrate, but I figured Jonathan, or another protein guru, has probably run their own experiments and might already have an answer for me. Thanks for any thoughts or advice from personal testing that may have been done previously.

This is what a lot of the big boys do and it gets better and quicker penetration and more even cover. If you’re doing chicken breasts wings or something smaller reversing that like Tex_77 is talking about is fine as well. I have never done a color penetration test but maybe we should?
