Charcuterie refers to the preparation and presentation of cured meats, often accompanied by a selection of complementary foods. While historically a method of preserving meats, particularly pork, through techniques like salting, smoking, and drying, charcuterie has evolved into a culinary practice focused on creating visually appealing and flavorful platters. These platters typically feature a variety of cured meats, such as salami, prosciutto, and chorizo, and are enhanced with cheeses, fruits, nuts, pickled vegetables, and condiments. Charcuterie serves as an appetizer or light meal, offering a diverse array of flavors and textures for shared enjoyment.

Our charcuterie meats and cheeses are selected based on our current inventory, ensuring a unique experience each time. We rotate our selections frequently. We will do our best to accommodate comparable substitutions. Please inform us of any allergies.

For large, medium, and small charcuterie boards, boxes, as well as sandwich platters, please place orders at least 24 hours in advance.
