I loved this video. You made it so easy. I can’t wait to put together my own cheese board.
The best cheese board tutorial!
Dear Beth, I'm not going to lie, I've never been a fan of cheese or boards. But, after viewing this video, you have changed my perspective of it. This changed my life completely. Thank you Beth.
Just one tiny thought. A few years ago a cheesemonger taught me to snip the grapes into small bunches. Nothing is worse then watching people play tug of war with your grapes. Looks exactly the same but its a small step to help your guests.

Or you can be really posh and leave out a pair of grape scissors. Yes there's such a thing!
So a lot of people can't afford to do a big cheese plate, so here's my tips for it! buy a few cheeses, whatever kinds you like, try to do a soft cheese, a harder cheese, and a salty cheese that's in between. you can add others if you have the budget for it. I've noticed cheeses are around 5-6 bucks where I live so this would set me back about 18 bucks. then id go to Walmart and get a loaf of French bread. It's about a dollar and you get plenty of bread. you could buy pretzels or crackers as well and I'd go to somewhere like Aldi's and it would set you back about 2 dollars. I can usually find grapes for 3 bucks at Aldi's but I'd pretty much get whatever fruit is cheap and in season at the time. so apples would work as well. Then one day when you're planning dinner, go somewhere like kfc or Lee's. they usually have an area inside with honey and jelly and stuff like that for biscuits. Take a bunch with you in your bag, or go to a place that sells the meats and cheeses and buy one fancy jelly. also utilize stuff you may already have at home. so fancy mustards, jams, etc. It'll be expensive but not as expensive. lol

Thanks for not only showing how to build a cheese board, but also providing some instruction on composition of the ingredients once you have assembled the board. Liked seeing what cracker/bread goes with the cheese as well as the finishing touches.

Thank you for your inspirations at any time! My life turns so grateful! Beth, LOVE YOU!!!
Hey Beth, this may sound weird, but you have to try it! Take a spiced cookie like gingerbread or ginger snaps and put on some strong blue cheese like a Roquefort or a bleu d'auvergne. It is so out of this world delicious!
Thank you Beth for sharing! This is amazing! Cheese platter at my house is so crowd-pleasing! Adults love to savour cheeses and grapes with wine pairings accordingly. Kids love stilton and apple jam combination. Blue cheese shortbreads disappear in minutes! I really recommend everyone to lay out a cheese board this year, so easy to do and the greatest thing is everyone get a chance to go around and meet, greet, have fun, embrace the holiday atmosphere while enjoying the food happily. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!
Love that cheeseboard/charcuterie tutorial! Your presentation in anything & everything is always simple, easy yet fancy & elegant! Love your videos!♥️
I'm making a bunch of charcuterie boards for my wife to give to friends at church. The ideas in your video are excellent. Thanks!!
I love my cheese and crackers with miracle whip, ketchup, soy sauce, pickles, peanut butter, tabasco sauce, soy milk, ham, tuna and gargonzola cheese! It's best with extra salt, pepper, ginger and Red Devil hot sauce! Add a little chow mein on the crackers and it's amazing!
Lovely 🧀 Board. Very attractive presentation & with variety & texture with nuts & 🍇 fruits ! Thumbs up 👍
Thank you so much, I have never made one and am asked to bring one to a function this weekend. So I searched on tube and decided to open your video, the best thing I could do... brilliant video, and so fresh and clear presentation style..
What a fabulous cheese board.........you nailed it Beth, thanks for sharing !
OMGaaawwwwwd... I think I could eat this all day everyday.... gorgeous!
Brie is my Fav it goes with grapes perfectly
I am new to selecting the right cheese and putting together a cheese board. Thank you so much, Beth! You just taught me how to do that. Happy New Year!

I absolutely love your channel. I've been watching for a while. I "borrowed" so many of your ideas for parties I would throw while I was in the military. Lets just say we all got an amazing taste of being at home while away. Thanks for an amazing channel, and another awesome idea! From me and troops of the USAF!!

Thank you for the cheese board idea, just perfect for my Dr's staff.
One of my favorite flavor combinations with Brie is sweet hot mustard (a spicy honey mustard) and a thin slice of fresh green apple. It's a weird combination but it's delicious!

Beth, your Cheese Board not only is delicious, it´s elegant and so pretty too. I love all these combinations mixing flavours. I´ve found fresh cranberries the other day and i will make cranberry sauce, so i need ideas for leftovers. I wish you and yours a very happy Thanksgiving! Greetings from Spain. Patricia.

Patricia G.G. Oh perfect! You'll love the cranberry sauce muffins :) Coming up on Friday! Stay tuned!
👍Lovely. 😍 I found that it’s a good idea to separate the grapes into small single or small bunches so guests aren’t touching the whole bunch just to eat a few. I make charcuterie and cheese boards all of the time. I got it from my mom who entertained a lot and used to make them all of the time when I was a kid. Thanks! 💞

I also like incorporating a little cream cheese onto my tray. A pitted date, stuff it with cream cheese and top it with a pecan. Heaven. The pepper jelly is also great with cream cheese.

Mmmm, olive bread with cheese - wonderful! White Stilton with apricots is nice but I prefer a proper Stilton. Love the visual appeal of the board, Beth. A nice chutney would be lovely with that lot :-)
Very nice Beth! :)

Oh gosh, first I misunderstood fig jam as 'fake jam'. Almost hurt my brain trying to figure out what that was, lol! Btw, nice idea! But can you suggest some other salty cheese instead of the blue? I'm not particularly a fan of it.
