The current hype and over the top style is a trend, but they’ve been around awhile. I know I’ve made them as far back as ten years ago, and I’m no trendsetter.

When I’m eating low carb and having it for a meal I’ve just called it a snack plate.

Wife and I got one at Italian Barrel one night and it was enough groceries for a week. I think we got the meat tray and the cheese tray, but you can’t have one without the other.

It's been a thing for 500 years in France, so not really a fad, but they have become popular among the young crowd again.

One of them looks like drunken goat. One of my favorites.

Pate or mousse with goat cheese on a table water cracker is hard to beat.

Made the mistake of telling my wife I liked a Charcuterie board and this is what I ended up with for Christmas.



Be careful. Be very careful.

Vienna sausage and some good, individually wrapped American cheese are a nice touch.

Someone posted on this topic recently to the effect of, "Sir, please serve me a lunchable, but put it on a piece of wood and charge me $65 for it."

Same thread had an incredible spread that someone got in Europe for dirt cheap.

For you "soft cheese" guys, I recommend you give Port Salut a try. If you want a harder cheese, try Manchego. It would also be a good addition to the board. Other than those, any of your favorite dried/cured meats.

And I also recommend a good pate

I used to eat them all the time as a kid, they were called lunchables

I probably ate my first as a working adult about 10 years ago from Domenica, they still have some of my favorite options, and that puff pastry

Of course it's a fad. But it's a delicious one. It's so easy to make something tasty and pretty! They're a great thing. We had them a long time ago. They were just called cheese and crackers then and you ate a bit of fruit. As wine has become more popular, so has the charcuterie board. No one drank wine when I was a kid. Now, everyone does.
