Customer Reviews

Big & Brawny
This is big, thick, heavy board. It's not the biggest they make but it's right on the edge of huge. If were any larger my wife would have a hard time moving it. So when doing small jobs, we tend to grab one of our smaller boards. Now before this scares you off you need to consider that this may be one of the most used and underappreciated tools in your kitchen. When making a big meal, or when cooking all day, we take this board out and leave it out all day. The groove is deep and ample enough to catch the drippings from a turkey or a large roast. Flip it over and you can chop veggies on it all day. It's been really nice on my knives too. Treat this board well by giving it a light coat of mineral oil and I bet it will outlive you.

In love with a cutting board??
Possibly. I find myself caressing it now and then, and pay much more attention to its care than other cutting boards. The 1-1/2" thickness is just right for us, not too heavy and doesn't add too much to the counter height. We've been using both sides, with one side for vegetables and the au jus side for meat and fish. The gutters on the au jus side can probably hold 2 cups of liquid from cutting up BBQ, tri-tips or a turkey. The 18x24 on the island is big enough for 2 people to work on at the same time. I have started noticing the Boos boards on cooking shows and noticed Paula Dean adding another cutting board on top of her 2" Boos. Is that for protection or added height, I wonder... :-)
