A carving board comprising a board and a base. The board has a concave region that comprises at least one aperture, preferably disposed proximate the center of the concave region. The base is coupled to the board and comprises an interior space fluidly coupled to the aperture, thereby allowing liquid to drain from the concave region to the interior space via the at least one aperture. A stand is configured to mate with the base and to collect liquid that drains from the concave region and passes through the interior space of the base when mated with the base. The base and the stand are configured to enable a user to releasably lock the base to the stand by lowering the base onto the stand and rotating the base relative to the stand.
