Maple Cutting Board

This genuine John Boos cutting board has been made from hand selected, sustainably harvested Northern hard Rock Maple Wood and features classic edge grain construction. One side features a deep juice groove/juice well to collect carving juices and prevent spills on your counter or tabletop. The reverse side is a completely flat, smooth cutting surface- perfect for breads, vegetables and more. Don’t let this board’s good looks fool you- all John Boos boards and Boos blocks have been designed for durability and are favored by professional chefs. Since 1887, every genuine John Boos cutting board and butcher block has been proudly made in Effingham, Illinois by skilled craftspeople using time honored techniques. Today, USA made John Boos boards and blocks are used and loved in commercial and home kitchens worldwide. Often imitated, John Boos is internationally known for crafting American hardwoods into products of beauty, durability and function. Simple board care can ensure this heirloom, handcrafted board is a favorite in your kitchen for years to come. Every John Boos board and block comes with a food safe natural oil finish that helps protect the wood during transit. Once a month, apply an even coat of John Boos Mystery oil (NSF approved, sold separately), and allow it to soak in overnight. Repeat this process more often when the board is brand new and “thirsty,” or if you live in a dry, arid climate. John Boos recommends applying John Boos board cream (also sold separately) to seal the top of the wood surface after applying the Mystery oil. A few quick minutes of regular oil application will ensure your new board is properly seasoned, and ready for work! after use, wash board with warm, soapy water (all wooden cutting boards are not dishwasher safe and should not be soaked in water).
