Abstract
An apparatus for placing a grill stripe or score mark on a meat product by transporting the meat product against a heated grill. A continuous conveyor transports individual wieners along a path of conveyance. A belt conveyor raises the wieners above the supported path of the continuous conveyor and into rotational contact with the superimposed heated grill. The wieners are rotated one complete revolution against the grill while synchronously moving the wiener with the continuous conveyor. The wieners are returned to the continuous conveyor for further processing.
