Artisan Chopping Block: "The Cornerstone Series"

In every Texas kitchen, the real work happens long before the heat starts. The Cornerstone Series by Artisan Plank Co. is engineered to be the rock-solid foundation for your daily culinary prep. More than just a cutting board, these chopping blocks are designed for the home chef who demands a stable, durable, and beautiful surface that can handle everything from heavy dicing to precision slicing.

What Sets Our Cornerstone Blocks Apart?

  • Rock-Solid Stability: At a substantial 1.5" thickness, these blocks provide the weight and mass needed to stay exactly where you put them. No more sliding or shifting on the counter—just a firm, reliable surface for every chop.

  • Knife-Friendly Grain Construction: Hand-refined from premium hardwoods, our side-grain or end-grain builds are designed to "give" under your blade. This protects your expensive knife edges from dulling while resisting deep scarring, ensuring the board stays smooth and food-safe for years.

  • Dual-Sided Versatility: Many of our Cornerstone blocks are designed to be fully reversible. Use the side with the Precision Juice Groove for messy prep like cutting tomatoes or fruit, then flip it over to the flat side for a wide-open workspace when dicing onions or herbs.

  • Ergonomic Integrated Hand-Holds: Despite their heavy-duty weight, these blocks are easy to manage. Recessed finger slots on the underside allow you to securely lift, flip, and carry your block to the sink for cleaning without the risk of a slip.

  • The Artisan Shield Finish: Like all our boards, the Cornerstone Series comes pre-seasoned with our signature Board Butter, creating a deep, moisture-resistant barrier that highlights the natural beauty of the wood while providing a professional, food-safe finish

The Cornerstone Series (1.5"): Every great kitchen needs an anchor. Our Cornerstone chopping blocks are built to be the workhorse of your countertop. With a substantial 1.5-inch thickness, these blocks provide the rock-solid stability required for daily prep, heavy chopping, and all-day kitchen duty without the risk of warping.

Artisan Brisket Board: Built for the King of BBQ

In Texas, we know that a world-class brisket deserves more than just a kitchen counter. The Artisan Plank Co. Brisket Board is engineered specifically for the weight, heat, and moisture of serious BBQ. Hand-refined from premium hardwoods, these boards are the ultimate tool for the pitmaster who values both performance and presentation.

What Sets Our Brisket Boards Apart?

  • Deep-Well Juice Grooves: Forget the mess; our boards feature precision-routed perimeter channels to catch every drop of juice, keeping your workspace clean and your bark intact.

  • Heavy-Duty Thickness: At 1.5" to 2" thick, these boards offer the stability and weight needed to carve through a full-packer brisket without the board sliding or warping.

  • End-Grain or Side-Grain Durability: Designed to be "self-healing," our end-grain or side-grain construction protects your knife edges while resisting deep scarring from heavy carving.

  • Integrated Hand-Holds or Durable Handles: Recessed finger slots on the underside or heavy duty top-mounted handles allow you to easily lift and transport 15+ pounds of meat from the smoker to the table with a secure grip.
