Charcuterie board for son's wedding

[atomicsmoke]

Organ sausage, is it organs (hearth, kidneys, liver, head meat etc, cooked first wIth SPG and smoked?
Skin terrine... what else did you use to get jelly when cooled down?

No meat in the organ sausage, no head, just organs (whatever is available), some cooked skin for texture, sauted onion, ground backfat chips, rendered fat, rice or cornmeal (coarse). Spices: nutmeg and all spice. Cold smoked after stuffing/poaching.
Here is in a thread

For the skin terrine i just used the water in which it cooked.

Kawboy,

Since this is such a major event i suggest putting some effort/$ in the board itself.

Live edge, handcrafted.
A long wide board looks impressive when filled.
Smaller boards cost less but they still have an effect.

If i ran the world i'd cancel main courses and reduce a festive gathering meal to the charcuterie boards. :-)

Good call. I have a brother in law with a good wood-shop. Thinking of maybe making a board with their names and date on it. My son is fascinated with knives, and said he would have become a butcher if not for his love of mathematics, so I think he'd get some use out of it.

just a raw, irregular shape, elongated, hardwood cut.... it looks manly and separates "who done it" from, Martha Stuart kitchen cutting board....
