'you take out' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'jab with a strange-looking cue' is the wordplay.
'jab' becomes 'prod' (synonyms).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a strange looking' is an anagram indicator.
'cue' anagrammed gives 'uce'.
'prod'+'uce'='PRODUCE'
