Nearly two inches of solid acacia that stays planted under the knife and catches every drip

At a Glance

• What it is: a solid acacia butcher block for carving, chopping, and serving, model MC-A147
• Size: 17 x 13 in work surface, 1.8 in thick, about 6 lb
• Juice groove: a deep perimeter channel that holds roast drippings and fruit juice on the board
• Handles: notched grips cut into the sides so a loaded board carries to the table
• Warranty: 90-day limited warranty from MegaChef

Thin boards skate across the counter, bow under a roast, and get hidden in a cabinet when guests arrive. This MegaChef block does the opposite. It plants 6 lb of dense acacia under your blade, stays put while you break down a chicken or rock through an onion, then walks straight to the dining room as the carving and charcuterie centerpiece.

Key Features

• Dense acacia hardwood: Acacia is a naturally hard, tight-grained wood that resists knife scoring and stains, so the surface keeps its rich dark figure through years of daily prep.
• A full 1.8 in of thickness: True butcher-block mass means the board will not bow, rock, or creep across the counter mid-cut, which is exactly when a slipping board becomes a slipping knife.
• 17 x 13 in of room: Enough surface for a whole roast chicken, a holiday bird, or a spread of cheese, cured meat, and fruit without anything hanging over the edge.
• Deep juice groove: The perimeter channel traps carving juices and watermelon runoff before they reach the counter, the floor, or your shoes.
• Notched carrying handles: Grips cut into the short sides let you lift a fully loaded board with both hands and walk it to the table without a tray.
• Kind to knife edges: Wood gives slightly under the blade, unlike glass, stone, or composite, so your knives stay sharp longer between sharpenings.
• Prep to table in one piece: Carve in the kitchen and serve straight from the block, so there is no replating and one less dish to wash.

What's Included

In the box: one 17 x 13 x 1.8 in acacia wood butcher block with a deep perimeter juice groove and integrated notched handles.

Before You Buy

• Hand wash only, and never soak it. Wipe it down with warm water and mild soap, dry it right away, and stand it on edge to air out. Dishwashers and sink soaks will crack and warp solid wood.
• It needs oiling. Rub in food-grade mineral oil about once a month and whenever the surface looks pale or dry. Skip this and acacia will dry out and split along the grain.
• It is a counter fixture, not a drawer board. At 1.8 in tall and about 6 lb, this is a block you station on the counter or stand on edge, so make sure you have the space.
• The groove is on one face. Carve roasts and juicy fruit on the grooved side; the flat back is for dry chopping. Wash both faces the same way and oil them both.

Perfect For

• Carving turkey, brisket, and Sunday roasts without flooding the counter
• Charcuterie and cheese spreads that go from prep to party in one lift
• Daily vegetable prep for cooks upgrading from thin plastic boards

Care & Use

• Hand wash with warm water and mild soap, rinse quickly, towel dry, and stand the board on edge to air-dry fully.
• Never soak the board, never run it through the dishwasher, and never leave it lying flat and wet.
• Oil regularly with food-grade mineral oil: pour, rub in with a clean cloth, let it absorb, and wipe off the excess.
• Refresh between oilings with coarse salt and half a lemon, then rinse fast and dry.
• Store dry, away from the stovetop and direct sunlight, which dry and crack wood.
