Whether you’re hosting coworkers for an upcoming dinner party or bringing in your family-favorite chili for an office party, you need proper prep space to get your cook on. Cutting boards are one of those essential kitchen items you need to slice, dice, cut, and prep food. If you want to impress your coworkers or your new boss, you want to make sure you’re covered in the kitchen before all the guests arrive. Here are some of our favorites!

We love this rubber cutting board. It’s the perfect size for trimming meat, cutting veggies and fruit, and chopping herbs. The material is easier on knives than wood and washes up like a dream. This cutting board is also dishwasher safe, so if you don’t feel like hand washing them or you’ve been cutting raw meat, you can make sure it’s completely sanitized and ready for its next use.

Thirteen Chefs make a unique 15×10 cutting board with handle for cutting and slicing. We love the shape because it offers more surface area for wider items, but it’s still made with high-density polypropylene used in industrial kitchens. You won’t have to worry about bacteria or germs gathering, and the handle offers a great grip when discarding bones and other large items.
Mats are a great alternative to a bulky cutting board. They are less heavy but still offer all you need for food prep. These mats are colorful, dishwasher safe, and BPA-free. Mats also offer flexibility if you need to transfer food from the mat into a pot. The anti-slip material works great on countertops, so you can feel confident nothing is going to slide around while you chop.
If you are fussed about color coding your mats to different food groups and are more of a bulk buy kind of chef, this set of six white plastic cutting boards will do the job. They are dishwasher safe, BPA-free, and will give you plenty of room to chop, dice, and cut your way to a delicious dinner.
Everyone needs an extra-large cutting board. It’s perfect for Thanksgiving turkey prep, homemade pizzas, and other larger items you need to prep for a meal. After prepping, this cutting board is ideal for cutting up large pieces of meat to serve. While it won’t fit in a home dishwasher, it’s easy to hand wash and dry. This board is big enough you can even use it to cover your sink for extra counter space.

We know it can be stressful to get ready to host a party — especially for people you work with every day. These cutting boards make it easy to prep everything you need to throw an epic dinner party or host your new boss for the first time. You have enough to worry about without food prep being one of them. You won’t be disappointed investing in one of these highly-rated cutting boards.
