"A grazing board is the ultimate addition to the menu for your next holiday party, family gathering, or even a week night dinner. It starts as a charcuterie (meat) and cheese board. Elevate it to grazing board status with the addition of fruits, veggies, crackers, and dips!"
Select a variety of seasonal products to make your own charcuterie and cheese board at home. Adjust the quantities as needed, based on how many you want to serve.
1. Choose 2 - 3 types of cheese. Try for different kinds, like hard cheeses that should be cut up ahead of time or a soft cheese that can be spread on a cracker.
2. Choose 2 - 3 types of charcuterie. Salami, pepperoni, sliced turkey or roast beef, and jerky are all good choices. Look for different levels of spiciness.
4. Choose 3 - 4 types of fruits. Look for options that won't be messy or turn brown. I like to have a combination of fresh and dried fruit for a little something sweet.
