ABSTRACT:
A portioning tool designed to provide consistent portions of ground beef or other food product. The portioning tool has a scoop with a plurality of apertures. The apertures allow drainage of any excess liquid from the food product and aids in smoothly dispensing the ground beef. The apertures are larger than the average size of the food particle to be portioned. This prevents the food product from clogging the scoop or sticking to the scoop's side, which results in uneven portioning. The portioning tool also has an ergonomic shaped handle which aids in the proper orientation of the portioning tool in the user's hand. The handle may be attached to accommodate either left-handed or right-handed users.
