Large Chopping Block

The Block That Started It All

The Large Chopping Block is where My Butchers Block began in 2012, and it is still the board serious home cooks reach for. At a full 50mm thick and over 5kg, it stays put on your counter while you break down a roast, carve a brisket or prep for a family braai.

Why long grain?

The wood fibres run along the length of the board, giving you a smooth, dense and very stable cutting surface. Long grain is lower maintenance than end grain, less prone to warping, and ideal for everyday chopping, slicing and carving.

Key features

• 50mm solid acacia: heavy enough to stay put without sliding, and thick enough to last for years.
• Generous 500 × 350mm work surface: room for big cuts of meat and full meal prep.
• Kinder to your knives than glass or stone: wood cushions every cut, so your blades stay sharper for longer.
• No plastic in your food: worn plastic boards can shed tiny particles; a wooden board has no plastic to shed.
• Handcrafted: no two blocks share the same grain pattern or tone.
• Premium stainless steel logo plate.
