If you’ve been paying attention on Instagram, you know that boutique “charcuterie” board companies are popping up left and right. In reality, it’s not just charcuterie (technically a french term used to describe prepared meat products) being offered. These locally curated boards, boxes and sometimes even tables combine a huge assortment of goodies ranging from sweet to salty, traditional to creative, themed and preset to custom.
What better time to order from one of these small WNY “charcuterie” companies than at-home Bills part season, whether it’s for personal indulgence, viewing parties, or a small gathering or event. Shoutout to 2020 for bring us some weird but lovely things we never knew we needed.
Enjoy, WNY! Oh and Go Bills. 😏
