Making the BBQ Block generates offcuts. When you cut a live-edge oak plank to board dimensions, the pieces that come off the ends and edges are too small for another board. They’re not useless — they’re just small. The question of what to do with them came up early in the production process. The first […]

Each bite was a revelation—crispy, salty, and bursting with the rich, mature flavour of Italian quattrocento cheese. As we […]
