Can you make a Charcuterie Board ahead of time?
I don't recommend putting it together more than a couple hours in advance of a party, if you've got crackers or anything crispy on the board. Why? Because the moisture from the other items will make them soggy. And let's be honest, nobody wants that!
Therefore, I like to get everything prepped ahead of time. Cut the cheese into slices (or star slices with a cookie cutter!), cut the meat, wash the berries, etc. Store them in the fridge until you're ready to put it all together. It'll come together super quickly when everything is sliced and ready to go!
