I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to choose a cutting board to use for this post and I received the 18 x 12 Maple Cutting Board with Grips from John Boos. I’ve always been a fan of Boos Blocks because of their high quality and durability. What I loved about this one in particular was the size and the fact that it could double as a serving platter! Perfect for the upcoming holidays, ham….prime rib….tenderloin roast…it’s all happening this year. And bonus, is the fact that it’s reversible so you can use one side as a work space and not worry that it’s going to look a little worn and the other side can be used to serve. This also doubles as a fabulous cheese board…..an epically sized cheese board.
The size of the Maple Cutting Board is ginormous….did I mention that? Large enough to hold an elephant….or a 9 pound spiral ham. One that’s coated in an easy to make, super tart, slightly sweet riesling-cranberry glaze. Beautiful enough to be the centerpiece on any holiday table….skip the Pinterest-y homemade centerpiece with pine cones and bird feathers. This Riesling-Cranberry Glazed Spiral Ham will have your guests gasping….and drooling. And the leftovers are divine….seriously.

I have already pinned the ham recipe. I’m intrigued by the combination of a crisp Riesling and tart cranberries. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Wow, what a gorgeous ham…a show-stopper! The glaze sounds fantastic! I actually have that same board and use it all the time! I once cooked with one of the chefs from Top Chef in their restaurant and they gave it to me as a gift, love it!
