Our antennae went on high alert this morning with the news we’ve been waiting for: M&S has officially restocked its viral 2-in-1 Wooden Butcher’s Block from the Tom Kerridge collab. The same one that sold out in days, whipped shoppers into a frenzy, and became a bona fide kitchen must-have. It’s back now – but likely not for long.
This is one of those rare pieces that genuinely belongs among the things every kitchen needs – a hardworking, beautifully designed staple that makes chopping, prepping, and presenting as efficient as possible. If you are on the hunt for gifts for home cooks, this is the sort of present people actually want (and use) rather than politely stash away. With Christmas creeping up fast, this restock couldn’t have come at a better time.
Part of the hugely successful M&S x Tom Kerridge Cook, Craft & Carve collection, this hero piece has proven itself to be the star of the range – and if previous demand is anything to go by, it won’t stay in stock long enough for second chances.
The M&S 2-in-1 Wooden Butcher’s Block – finally back in stock after selling out at record speed. Stylish, sturdy, and brilliantly multifunctional, this is the kind of hardworking hero piece that transforms meal prep, hosting, and everyday cooking in an instant. Its generous chopping surface, clever integrated tray, and solid wooden design make it feel far more premium than its price tag, which explains why shoppers cleared the shelves within days. If you want this game-changing kitchen essential before the Christmas hosting rush, you’ll need to act fast. It’s back… but not for long.
'I’m absolutely thrilled to launch the collection with M&S and I feel so proud of what the teams and I have created. It’s all about great design that makes cooking a joy — kitchen essentials that feel good to use, look great on the table, and are built to last.' says Tom Kerridge. And this butcher's block really is a joy to use.
'This sturdy board is a perfect all-rounder, but I love carving my Sunday roast joint on it – it’s a great size for any cut of meat. And the contoured surface collects those delicious roasting juices for gravy.' explains Tom. One side features two built-in sorting compartments, while the other side has a juice flute to help maintain a clean workspace. It is perfect for carving the roast goose on Christmas Day and any other roasting joint, for that matter.
The contoured surface makes chopping and peeling vegetables a breeze, too, as you can store cut-offs there rather than journeying back and forth to the bin over and over again. It's a workhorse product that home cooks are obsessing over, especially given its remarkably modest price point.
We strongly suggest moving quickly, not only because this hero piece is destined to sell out again, but because it makes such an outstanding Christmas gift for any home cook. And if your budget allows, consider ordering two; you’ll thank yourself later when you realise how hard it is to track down.
With its thoughtful design and non-toxic cutting board credentials, this is one restock you don’t want to sleep on.
