Beef is quite well done at 200F. Beef at 400F would, at best, be jerky. More
likely, shoe leather!
What's wrong with good old glass-epoxy?

I think the temp rating of those cutting boards is fairly high, as you can
place meat that was just cooked at 400F directly on the board without damage or
discoloration.
Or, at least I do that!

REPLY:
In my homebrew 3kV power supply, I used a high density polyethylene cutting
board I bought in WalMart's kitchen department for a couple dollars. Works
fine, but I don't know about it's temp rating. In my design, I used a fan to
cool things down and I placed the capacitor bank right in the outflow of the
fan, so temp is not a problem. Be careful if you place it somewhere else.
