HAYWARD, CALIF. — Columbus Craft Meats, a subsidiary of Hormel Foods Corp., is rolling out three new charcuterie kits just in time for the holidays.

The kits include The Unexpected, Rustic Beauty and Smoky Vibes and are part of the new Perfect Charcuterie Bite from Columbus.

Each kit comes with its own flavor profile and an easy-to-follow recipe from Evan Inada, Columbus’s charcuterie director.

“Each Perfect Charcuterie Bite takes you on a journey of delicious flavor combinations with salumi as our star,” Inada said. “We kept our builds simple yet elevated, allowing everyone to get in on the fun. Food has the power to transport you to a different time and place, so we name each board and share its story to help our consumers connect with charcuterie on a new, experiential and even emotional level.”

The Unexpected features notes of cured pork umami from Columbus’s classic Italian dry salami, spice, chocolate, peanuts and apple swirl.

Rustic Beauty features sopressata, prosciutto, meaty Castelvetrano olives and dried strawberries.

Deep notes of peppery, smoky heat from our chorizo salame run through Smoky Vibes. Chorizo, coffee and dark chocolate almond combine to harmonize traditional Spanish smoke and spice.
