carving stations
Sliced roast areas
Carving stations are areas at buffets or catered events where a chef slices meat to order—typically roast beef, ham, or turkey kept warm under heat lamps.
The format lets guests request specific cuts and portions: The wedding reception featured carving stations with prime rib and honey-glazed ham.
The term also appears in retail for deli counters offering freshly sliced meats.
