Small but mighty. Some don’t like the small size, but the smaller size makes it very versatile.

Cons
- It’s a bit small (9.5″ X 13.5″) but is designed for grill-side prep support—not your all-in-one prepping station.

Price & Value
- 95%
Retailing for around $35, the Traeger Bamboo Cutting Board is reasonably priced because of its great quality bamboo material with a magnetized function and brand. You can find similar models a little cheaper, but you will sacrifice quality and won’t have the ‘coolness’ of the Traeger logo.
At this price point, the Traeger cutting board makes for a great birthday or Christmas gift!

Construction & Material
As has already been mentioned, the Traeger cutting board is constructed with bamboo. Bamboo cutting boards are popular because they are known for their low maintenance and durability. A simple hand wash with warm water and soap does the trick every time.
Durability
In all our testing, we’ve had absolutely no issues with the durability of the Traeger Magnetized Cutting Board. Based on the look and feel of the board, it feels like a solid piece of bamboo as you’d expect, and it doesn’t feel like a fall or years of use would wear on it much.
Some reviews we researched indicate that, at times, small pieces of bamboo come off of the grill, but this often happens when left outside for extended periods of time in the weather or put into the dishwasher. Again, simply hand wash this board with warm water and dish soap and you shouldn’t have a problem.
The Magnetic Feature
The Traeger cutting board’s core feature is that it is magnetic to stabilize on front shelves, side shelves, hoppers, or any magnetic surface. This is great when you are cutting meat or veggies before or after cooking outside; this feature really helps you keep the mess outside and gives you versatility for all your grill shelves.

We love that this cutting board is magnetized – it makes transferring large pieces of meat from the board to your grill very easy, and that’s a huge design win in our book.
The look and overall design of the cutting board are beautiful and what you’d expect from Traeger.
The design is simple yet functional with a modern look and feel.
Size & Shape
The Traeger cutting board is 9.5″ X 13.5″, a relatively small size when comparing cutting boards. However, the size is intentional as it complements Traeger pellet grills and any other grill with similar-sized shelves.
In terms of size, you’re likely not going to use this cutting board to trim that brisket, but it’s perfect for steaks, pork chops, veggies, chicken, and much more.
Very Functional
Again, the design is very functional and simple. That’s what we love about this cutting board.
Cleaning the Traeger Cutting Board
