Butcher blocks and char-broiler grates build up a layer of residue and carbon that ordinary brushes cannot shift. The F. Dick block brush has tempered steel wire bristles for that deep, aggressive cleaning, and its plastic body suits kitchens and shops where wooden brushes are not allowed.
Wooden brushes absorb grease and cannot be fully cleaned, which rules them out in many inspected environments. This brush can be washed and sanitized like the rest of the equipment. It removes food build-up, carbon deposits and rust from the top layer of a block, which helps the block last longer. The handle gives a sure grip for hard scrubbing.
Plastic also dries quickly between uses.
Use it with water and a little salt or detergent on a wood block, then rinse the block and oil it once dry. For lighter, everyday board cleaning, the F. Dick Blank-Boy cutting board scraper is gentler. Butcher shops and delis keep both on hand.
