Handcrafted Cutting Boards and Chopblocks

When I build a chopblock or cutting board I start with one thing in mind: creating a piece of art that will withstand a lifetime of use and that anyone will always be proud to have in their kitchen.

My long time friend Byron Chism has been patiently waiting for his time on the RBChopblock.com blog.  Byron is owner of www.buttrub.com and has been instumental in the cutting board business I call RBChopblock.com.  Below is a picture of Byron winning a couple of my trophies for  first place brisket and a second place pork in Madison, Indiana.
