Summer BBQ Charcuterie Ideas | Cheese and Charcuterie

Charcuterie isn’t just for wine nights — it’s the perfect addition to your next backyard BBQ.

Mixing gourmet meats and cheeses with bold BBQ flavors creates a grazing table that’s both impressive and crowd-pleasing. Whether you’re grilling ribs or hosting a casual burger night, a charcuterie spread adds that extra “wow” factor your guests will remember.

Here’s how to blend the best of both worlds: summer grilling and stylish snacking.

Bold Flavors, Beautiful Presentation

Add smoky and savory elements alongside your usual charcuterie favorites:

  • BBQ sliced brisket, pulled pork, or grilled chicken skewers
  • Cheddar cubes, pepper jack, and smoked gouda
  • Cornbread crackers, sweet pickles, and tangy mustard
  • Fresh fruit like watermelon, pineapple, and strawberries
  • Dips: chipotle aioli, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce

How to Serve It Right

Use wooden boards or large trays, and style your layout with small bowls for sauces. Add toothpicks, mini buns, or slider rolls for DIY sandwiches. A little touch of fresh herbs and grilled corn rounds out the look.

And don’t forget beverages! Lemonade, iced tea, and a cooler of craft beer pairs perfectly with this BBQ charcuterie experience.
