• This butcher’s twine will become a new kitchen staple: truss roasts, tie bouquet garnis and cheesecloth, or trellis your tomatoes in the back yard. 
• There’s a lot more than meets the eye with this trencher -- carve roasts or peel shrimp on the trenched side, or turn it over and it becomes a flat cutting board or a rustic platter for cheese and fruit. 

It’s the season for carving: turkeys are fast approaching and holiday roasts beckon. But if we know our readers, our guess is that you’ll all be doing a lot more carving and cutting all year long. The rich, dark walnut wood of Kaufmann Mercantile’s Trencher Board will make your roast look stunning, but even better -- its gradual slope will make your job easier. Let the well at the back of the board collect juices as you slice, to keep them off the table and out of your work area. It will simplify cutting tomatoes, cracking crabs, and slicing pot roast, but don’t forget about that turkey -- use this butcher’s twine to make sure you get an evenly cooked bird, and your table will be complete.
