I probably have a dozen cheap cutting boards. All types, shapes, sizes. No real wood ones yet, but a decent bamboo one. However, the problem I have is whenever I make prime rib, brisket, or really any large hunk of juicy meat, all the cutting boards I have don't have a large enough juice groove and they overflow and leak all over the counter. If they somehow don't happen to overflow, they are so full they you either have to waste a bunch of paper towels to soak it up or end up spilling it all over getting it to the sink.
So, I'm looking for something first to eliminate that problem. I've found a couple ideas, but not sure I want to drop $200 on a wood board (would be easier to stomach if this one was end grain instead of edge) or if I really want another thinner bamboo board:
Anyone have either of these and absolutely love it? Or another good option I haven't located yet?
The second board I might be looking for is a decent plastic board for dealing with raw meat. I have a couple of these that work fine, but they've warped after running through the dishwasher. Anyone know a board that will handle the dishwasher alright and not dull knives. Or should I be avoiding the dishwasher altogether with these? The problem is after they warp a little, they spin all over the counter trying to use them.
