The John Boos BBQ Series 17×21 Inch Walnut Cutting Board is the company’s purpose-built barbecue and carving board, sized at 17×21 inches to handle whole brisket, pork shoulder, smoked turkey, and rib racks the smaller 18×12 boards can’t accommodate. The juice groove cut around the perimeter of one face catches the runoff that comes off any properly-rested smoked meat without sending it across the cutting station.
Use it as a barbecue and smoker accessory for backyard pitmasters, a Thanksgiving and Christmas roast-carving board, a whole-fish breakdown board for fishermen, a holiday entertaining board, and any application where the oversized footprint and juice groove combine for the right answer. The flip side is smooth for general prep when the BBQ side isn’t needed.
John Boos has been hand-crafting butcher blocks in Effingham, Illinois since 1887 — the company that supplied butcher blocks to the original Chicago meat-packing district. Every Boos board is made from sustainably-sourced American black walnut and finished in food-safe Boos Block Cream.
