John Boos CCB Series Rectangular Wooden Maple Cutting Board 20”x15” – 2.25” Thick, 21-lb Reversible Butcher Block with End-Grain & Finger Grips – Made in the USA

John Boos CCB Series Rectangular Wooden Maple Cutting Board 20”x15” – 2.25” Thick, 21-lb Reversible Butcher Block with End-Grain & Finger Grips – Made in the USA

Q: The majority of the reviews are pretty awful for this legendarily wonderful cutting board. Can anyone clear the air about this?

Wood is a natural product that is susceptible to seasonal expansion and contraction. When you make an end grain cutting board, you are typically using pieces of wood from many different trees, with different moisture levels and different age and grain patterns. The upshot here is that it shouldn't come as a shock when a board like this comes apart sometimes. The company should work with customers whose board comes apart and it sounds like they do. What people need to understand is that a cutting board may be perfect at the time it is sold, but when it gets to the customer's house it is in a new environment and it can and will move a bit. It's impossible for a company to "know" how a particular board will hold up after a few weeks of use. HAving said all that, if you are going to charge $200 for a cutting board, you dang well better make sure that any customer who experiences issues with a new board had better be taken care of with a prompt replacement. Just my $.02.

Q: I've used a lot of oil and my board is splitting already. I leave the oil on overnight. I don't think this is normal. Thoughts?

The key to maintaining these boards requires 1) don’t let water pool after using; 2) “a lot of oil” is not required—I used about two tablespoons with a paper towel, let sit for 30-60 minutes and remove excess; and 3) don’t allow water to pool under the board. I have two boards; the first one was purchased on Amazon a number of years ago. It’s a beautiful deep color (due to reqular oiling) and has no cracks or other problems.

Q: I see this is reversible, but does one side of the juice grooved side?

Hello Miranda, This is a great question. Yes, this board is reversible. Both sides are totally flat/smooth and do not feature a juice groove. Integrated hand grips on either end make it easy to lift and move this board. It is part of the CCB collection, which features classic End Grain construction (resulting in the "checkerboard" look of the board), and is a real showstopper. If you are looking for a Boos Block that also 20 inches long/15 inches wide and features a integrated juice groove- cop/paste this link into your browser search bar: https://www.amazon.com/John-Boos-Cutting-Groove-15-Inch/dp/B00LCAC0A0/ref=sr_1_16?keywords=JOhn+boos+reversible&qid=1560446709&s=gateway&sr=8-16 Another option: https://www.amazon.com/John-Boos-CB1054-1M2015150-Cutting-Inches/dp/B07FGL9ZFY/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=JOhn+boos+reversible&qid=1560446769&s=gateway&sr=8-3 A larger option to consider is a 2.25 inch thick board that is 24 x18 inches and features a juice groove: https://www.amazon.com/John-Boos-Reversible-Cutting-Handles/dp/B000P7DMYE/ref=sr_1_12?keywords=JOhn+boos+reversible&qid=1560446769&s=gateway&sr=8-12 Hope this helps you on your shopping journey! Thanks, John Boos and Co

Q: Must you oil this every time you use it?

No. Maybe after you first get it because there’s no oil on it at all but after a while you won’t have to. A few other things that are probably obvious but worth mentioning are that you should wash by hand and dry immediately. Don’t soak it or let it stand on its side (in a sink, for example) when wet b/c it will warp and then not lay flat. Last thing...if you’re using it as a charcuterie board, I recommend putting wax paper under the cured meats and cheese so that the oils from the meat and funk from the cheese doesn’t get into the grain of the wood. It’s really a great board!
