This recipe yields 5 to 6 servings and can be prepared in around 20 minutes.

What to Serve with Your Board

Sides

Add an array of fresh vegetables to your board, such as cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, celery sticks, and carrot sticks. These crunchy and refreshing options are perfect for dipping in the Bloody Mary cocktail and provide a burst of freshness that complements the bold flavors of the charcuterie.

Pickled vegetables are a classic accompaniment to Bloody Mary cocktails, and they add a tangy and briny contrast to the richness of the charcuterie. Add pickles, olives, pickled onions, or pickled asparagus to your board for a burst of zesty flavor.

Condiments

Include an array of condiments on your charcuterie board to add extra layers of flavor to your Bloody Mary. Consider options like horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, or even a small dish of sea salt and cracked black pepper for seasoning. 

Crackers or Bread

Include an assortment of crackers or bread on your board to serve as a vehicle for enjoying the charcuterie and creating your own custom Bloody Mary bites. Opt for options like crispy baguette slices, rustic bread, or artisanal crackers that add textural contrast to the meats and cheeses.

Popular Substitutions & Additions

There are plenty of options to explore when it comes to substitutions and additions for your Bloody Mary Board. Here are some popular ideas:

• Seafood: Add seafood options such as chilled shrimp, crab legs, or oysters to your board. These briny and fresh additions can complement the flavors of the Bloody Mary cocktail and add a luxurious twist to your board.

• Smoked Fish: Smoked fish, such as salmon or trout, can be a delicious addition to your board. The smoky flavors can pair well with the bold flavors of the Bloody Mary and add an extra layer of depth to your board.

• Vegetarian/Vegan Options: For those who prefer a plant-based or vegan option, consider adding marinated artichoke hearts, roasted vegetables, or even vegan sausage or deli slices to your board. These options can provide a delicious and satisfying alternative for those who do not consume meat.

• Deviled Eggs: Deviled eggs are a classic appetizer that can be a great addition to your Bloody Mary Board. They add a creamy and tangy element to the board and can be a fun and flavorful option for your guests.

• Spreads and Dips: Include an array of spreads and dips on your board, such as spicy mustard, creamy hummus, or tangy salsa. These options can add extra flavor and variety to your board, and guests can use them as a condiment for their meats and cheeses.

• Fresh Herbs: Add a touch of freshness and aroma to your board by including fresh herbs, such as basil, cilantro, or dill. These herbs can add a burst of flavor and fragrance to your board and enhance the overall taste experience.

• Bloody Mary Mix: Consider including a small pitcher or bottle of Bloody Mary mix on your board for a DIY Bloody Mary experience. Guests can customize their cocktails by adding the mix to their glass and the meats, cheeses, and other accompaniments on the board.

Remember, tailoring your Bloody Mary Board to your taste preferences and dietary restrictions is key. Get creative with substitutions and additions that you and your guests will enjoy, and have fun exploring different flavors and textures to create a memorable culinary experience.
