Which cutting board suits you? – The big overview for kitchen & BBQ

Cutting board is not the same as a cutting board. Some need a sturdy board with a juice groove for juicy roasts, others a handy kitchen board for herbs & vegetables. And then there are those who simply want a noble statement on the set dining table. Sounds familiar? Then you're in the right place.

For meat, brisket & BBQ – The CHEFBRETT

If you regularly prepare meat – whether steak, roast, or pulled pork – you need asolid cutting board with a juice groove. It should be non-slip, cut-stable, and easy to clean. Our recommendation: theCHEFBRETT. 4 cm thick, made from a single piece of oak, usable on both sides – developed for grill masters and meat lovers.

For vegetables & herbs – compact, practical, snack-ready

Anyone who chops a lot needs ahandy board without frills. Easy to grip, easy to clean, not too large. OurChef boards S & Mare perfect kitchen helpers for vegetables, herbs, or quick sandwiches. Available in various sizes, with or without juice groove.

For bread & baked goods – The smooth side of the kitchen

Bread, rolls, baguette – here you don’t need a groove, but asmooth, crumb-friendly surface. A board made from walnut not only looks good but also protects your blade and offers a warm, pleasant tactile feel. Particularly stylish: ourPremium chef board made of walnut.

With or without juice groove – that’s the question

Juice grooves make sensewhen working with juicy ingredients: meat, fruit, tomatoes – everything that drips. For dry ingredients like bread, cheese, or herbs, a smooth side is ideal. Many of our boards aredouble-sided usable, so you stay flexible.

Oak or walnut – which wood suits you?

  • Oak: Heavy, hard, rustic. Very robust, antibacterial thanks to tannic acid. Perfect for meat & BBQ.
  • Walnut: Slightly softer but noble. Develops a beautiful patina over time. Ideal for bread, cheese & serving.

Here’s the wood comparison

Whether BBQ pro, vegetable lover, or breakfast enthusiast – atwood & more you will find the perfect board made of solid wood.
