What is Granite?

Granite is an incredibly hard igneous rock. It can be used anywhere (inside/outside), and is one of the most durable building products in existence. Granite is considered one of the best countertop materials. When using granite as your countertop material you can chop, cut, and thaw food directly on top. When you remove a hot pan from the stove, don't worry about a hot pad, just place it right on top of your granite top! It is virtually stain-proof and indestructible.
