Chemically (with papaya enzyme), as opposed to mechanically (with a
hammer). I don't think that they use the juice, just the extracted
enzyme. That's what all "tenderizer" is, isn't it? I guess I could
have interpreted " put a ton of tenderizer on" it as meaning, hit it
with a BFH, kinda like "open up a can of whoop ass."

"In United States, Papain is available in Grocery stores as Adolph's
Meat Tenderizer."

If you're accusing me of trying to look more knowledgeable than I am,
you're mistaken. I won't ask for an apology.
