# Steak Stencils Meaty Marketing Grill By Alex Covert | Published 2008-06-07 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meaty-marketing-my-grill References: [designspotter](http://www.designspotter.com/product/2008/06/my-grill.html) & [haseform.de](http://haseform.de/produkte/89.do) But at least it's not cheesy! You don't get personalized meat, here. What you're getting is a stainless steel stencil that you can place over your [t-bone steak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chargrilled-sirloin-steak) and scorch with a propane burner. This product idea was designed by Hannes Freising and allows for any logo or symbol to be sizzled into your food. I think it would be quite the conversation piece, rather at home or at the [local steakhouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-steak). An alternative is [custom branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/legitimate-you): **Implications** - This stainless steel pencil is a brilliant concept that I absolutely love. I will definitely be impressing my friends in the very near future by impressing my name into my meats. What an original and quirky concept. This is one that I will definitely be picking up some time soon. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Personalized Steak Stencils:** Stainless steel stencils for sizzling any logo or symbol onto your food presents an opportunity for personalized branding in the food industry. - **Custom Branding Tools:** The use of custom branding pencils presents an innovative opportunity for branding meats in the food industry. - **Conversation Piece Marketing:** Using quirky and original concepts like personalized meat branding is a new way of marketing that utilizes conversation pieces to attract customers. ### Where This Applies - **Food Industry:** Personalized steak stencils and custom branding tools are disruptive innovation opportunities for the food industry. - **Marketing Industry:** The conversation piece marketing approach presents innovative opportunities for the marketing industry to attract new customers. - **Design Industry:** The concept of personalized branding tools, such as steel stencils and branding pencils, has disruptive innovation opportunity in the design industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Unusual Food Tattoo Challenges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omaha-steak.md) - [Cultivated Beef Morsels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beef-morsels.md) - [Embossed Ice Stamp Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clear-ice-embosser.md) - [Flaming Fare Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flaming-grill-dining-experience.md) - [Indoor High-Heat Steak Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-steakhouse-grill.md) - [Seasonal Steak Sampler Gifts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prime-steak-sampler-gift-box.md) - [Streetwear-Branded Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-grill.md) - [Marbled Vegan Ribeye Steaks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/misteak.md) - [Meaty Stacked Snack Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pringles-flame-grilled-steak.md)
