Boos Butcher Block - Combining Experience With Style

Boos butcher block is produced by John Boos & Co. which has been in business since 1887.

They manufacture a full line of work tables and carts for residential, commercial and industrial use.

Their experience as suppliers to commercial companies and to the military during WWII lead them rather naturally to develop islands and carts for home kitchens that incorporate both wood and stainless steel.

Boos butchers block is now found in combination with stainless steel on many Boos design ideas, but Boos wood blocks have been produced for over 100 years.

Versatile and Stylish

Butcher block tops are very useful in modern kitchens for preparing and cutting foods.

They spare your counter top any wear and tear while lessening the chance of damage to your kitchen knives.

They chooses hard maple wood and red oak wood for its butcher blocks, countertops, and wooden island and cart work surfaces.

Butcher blocks are fitted onto kitchen islands and carts to provide durable work spaces in combination with cabinets, shelves and drawers used to store cooking items.

The result is an efficient and practical way to prepare and serve foods in the cooking area.

Many of John Boos' island designs are wheeled which makes them even more versatile.

They can be used in the kitchen, of course, but can also be moved to other rooms or outside to the deck when entertaining.

John Boos island designs are mostly open-shelved designs often combining a butcher block top surface with stainless steel frame and shelves.

 Still, their Cucina Rustica and Cucina Laforza butcher block models are completely of wood, as are several other very stylish islands and carts.

 Butcher block, because its wooden blocks are in a variety of patterns and shades of wood, complement nearly every other material.
