Introducing the best meat cutting board! While it sounds like hyperbole we assure you it's not. After years of using meat boards that haven't changed much in design from what our grandparents used, we are happy to offer you and the meat eaters in your life something different. The simplicity of the slope on one side and the flat surface on the other is what makes THIS meat chopping board so unique!

Our meat cutting board features a sloped side that channels the juices down to a deeper well on one side of the board. This design update replaces the traditional juice channel that's on all four sides of other meat boards. This smart slope design is just the enhancement that meat boards have needed, making ours truly the best cutting board for meat!

Gone are the days of trying to carry your meat cutting boards from the table to the sink with the gullies full of juice. It is quite the balancing act. And, if you're like us, it never turns out good. The solution is to practice your technique or get a meat board with a better design!

We have also used the meat board side to carve up watermelon and pineapple and it works great for fruit too. Way less messy.

The Best Cutting Board for Meat Serves More than One Function

Resting and carving

When you pull a big chicken or roast out of the oven or some steaks off the grill, our meat cutting board is the best place for the meats to rest before carving. Letting meats rest helps to retain their juices which means each bite will be tastier. Cover your meats with foil to keep them warm. Let roast chicken rest for 15 minutes before carving. Steak should rest for about 5 minutes per inch and roasts 10-20 minutes before carving. You can use this downtime to make gravy and get the veggies and other sides ready.

Serving

No need to transfer anything to a serving plate. Just add your veggies around the meat and presto you are done. Less to clean plus it looks great on the table as a personalized centerpiece.

Chopping

The reverse side of our meat cutting boards provide a big flat surface perfect for chopping, slicing and dicing. Because they are almost 2 inches thick, they will stay in place and provide a very substantial surface area for chopping up a storm.

A nice wooden carving board is an investment for sure but if well cared for they will last a lifetime.

Place Settings

We have just come out with a new smaller version of this same design which we think makes an ideal place setting. Perfect for serving a single steak or chicken breast with room for some sides.

And since you can personalize them everybody will know who's board is who's. Especially great if you have food allergies like celiac.

Another really practical feature of our smaller meat cutting boards is the size itself. If you live in a small apartment with a small kitchen that doesn't have a lot of extra storage this chopping board for meat is perfect as it serves multiple uses all in one compact, beautiful package.  

Entertaining

In addition to using our small meat boards as a wooden plate they also make excellent serving trays for charcuterie or for your go to appetizer. As you can see, you can pack a lot of food on this small board. Place your juicy foods like olives and fresh mozzarella at the end with the deepest slope so you don't get juices on the other cheeses and crackers. In our opinion this really does make the best meat cutting board for serving.

If you have a big family like us then you can pack even more goodies on our large size.

Two Sizes Because One Size Doesn't Fit All

We offer a large and small size in either cherry or walnut.

The large size measures 14" x 18" x 1.75” and the small size measures 12" x 9" x 1.75"

They both have cut outs in the wood on the sides for easy carrying.

Another popular option is our 16 inch cutting board for serving charcuterie.

Our meat chopping board with its slope design, of course! Generally, wooden cutting boards are the best to use for chopping meat. They're durable, friendly on knives, and are easy to keep clean. We recommend avoiding glass or ceramic boards as they can quickly dull your knives. Plastic is okay in a crunch, but they aren't our first choice.

Follow these simple steps to clean your chopping board for meat:

1. Rinse the board with hot water immediately after use.
2. Scrub it with warm water and dish soap. Don't use anything abrasive.
3. Sanitize the board by wiping it with a mixture of white vinegar and water.
4. Let the board air dry completely before storing it.

Yes, but you must clean and sanitize it after each use. With proper cleaning, wooden boards are less likely to harbor bacteria but they can absorb moisture, which may lead to warping or cracking over time. Regular maintenance and thorough cleaning are key to keeping your wooden boards safe for meat prep.
