I've heard that using pineapple or papaya puree on a steak for 30 minutes then rinsing off tenderizes it. Have you used this?

Pineapple and papaya are both highly acid in nature, so yes you will tend to "cook" the meat and thus tenderize to some degree. It's the same as using lime or lemon juice on seafood to make ceviche.

Steak is generally tender. I would suggest a better quality steak.
