What is a Charcuterie Board/Grazing Board?

Strictly speaking, a charcuterie board is a display of cured meats. They have gained popularity in the last several years and now usually include meats, cheeses, crackers, dips, pickles, olives, nuts, fruits, and veggies…which was often previously referred to as a cheeseboard.
