Irish Charcuterie Board
Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by making an Irish Charcuterie Board with your favorite meat and cheese and snacky foods. This tasty tray will be one of your favorite St. Patrick’s Day Ideas as you plan your party.
Very few things are as fun to make and show off as a charcuterie board! With very little effort, you’ll feed an entire party of people.
And since they are made completely from your imagination, you can customize them to suit any food allergy or dietary restrictions that you need to.

How To Customize A Charcuterie Board
Scroll down to the printable recipe card and you’ll see all of the cured meats, vegetables, spreads, and cheeses that I used in my St. Patrick’s Day charcuterie board. You can either follow my recipe exactly as I wrote it or customize it.
Here’s how to make those changes.
Browse the imported cheese section at the grocery store. Buy as many different types of meats and cheese as you want. Pick out some exotic types of cheese with names you can’t pronounce. It’s so much fun to explore meats and cheese from all around the world.
You can also add any decorations that you want, as well! St. Patrick’s day has tons of fun themes to go with it – leprechauns, rainbows, and clovers.

Have fun with this charcuterie board. Let your creativity shine!
How To Make A St. Patrick’s Day Charcuterie Board
Every single step for the charcuterie board is in the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post.
Whenever I make a charcuterie board, I like to start from the middle and build outward. For the St. Paddy’s Day charcuterie board, place the rolled meats and pretzel bites in the middle and then add the cheese, veggies, and crackers around them.

Really fill up every bit of space on your tray. Keep your green theme in mind and add as many different types of green vegetables as you want. There are so many choices out there!
Instead of ramekins for the dips and spreads, use cauldrons. When you fill them with cheese and mustard, they look like they are pots of gold! Place them on the edges and corners and then hug fruits and meats around them.
It’s also a really good idea to fill up every spot of white space with more food. Start out with the largest pieces of food and then use smaller foods – like cheese and broccoli – to fill in and cover the white spaces in between.
It’s also important to add movement to the board. Fold the meats in different shapes to add textures and design to the board.

Charcuterie Board Supplies
You don’t need a whole lot of different supplies to make a stunning and attention-grabbing charcuterie board. These are the most important kitchen tools you’ll need to make and serve your charcuterie board.

How To Make A Charcuterie Board Ahead of Time
It’s easy to make your St. Patrick’s Day charcuterie board ahead of time, as long as you have the space in the refrigerator. Arrange the entire tray, cover it tightly with plastic food storage wrap, and then keep it in the refrigerator for up to three days.
If you don’t have space in the fridge for the entire tray, I suggest doing all the food prep and storing the meat, fruit, and cheese, in separate bags or small containers. Then, on the day of the party, just arrange everything on the tray and serve it!
