I've been a butcher for almost 40 years, and I've gone through a few blocks. I've also restored about a hundred of them over the years. If you do this again, try plain "popcorn salt." It's much finer grain and gets into all the small scratches.
Hello, am in the process of making one for my shop. Does this have to be done everyday? Till now we were using logs. those aren’t practical unless it’s a full length. With cleavers well made blocks should last long, right?
Great to see as so few showing the way to do it. I thought salt and a wire brush would be involved. Any guidance for plastic chopping boards, especially post prepping chicken?
I have recently started using disposable chopping boards for chicken, etc, you can get them online 30 for about 29 pounds. But I wash down with hot, soapy water pre use and after use if using wood chopping boards

I will definitely give that a try! Thanks 👍 😊

Recently, I purchased an old butcher block and want to restore it. What's the best stain I should use?
Missed seeing your videos. Glad you are back. Great job on cleaning up that piece of butcher block.
Thanks Laura we will be adding plenty of new content 😀 so keep an eye out and thanks so much for the continued support 😀 😊 😍

I have a big one probably 1900s that looks like tgat I might just try to keep it…it’s so heavy probably take 3 to 4 men to pick it up!!!

@@BrothersoftheGrill Great, thanks. May I ask why you are using disposable chopping boards for chicken? Is it due to how it sticks to the board?
@soothe & sound it's more for hygiene, to be honest. They are fairly cheap.
Nice!
Thanks, I was lucky to find it cheap 😍
Belt sander… much easier, and you start off with a guaranteed fresh surface! ✌️
Very true 👍 work smarter not harder 😃
thanks, needed this
Thanks 👍 😀
thank you
@Maitree15 thank you for watching 👀 🙏
i would just use my high pressure cleaner
@HotBeefGravy I would but I don't have one lol
Try baking soda and vinegar instead of salt
I'm actually due to do another clean up soon so I will try that! Thanks 👍 😀
Came up atreat. Made me sweat just watching. 🥃
It took a few goes lol 😆
