This American Flag Charcuterie Board is stacked with pepperoni, cheese, and blueberries to look just like the American flag. It’s festive, fun, and perfect for your party spread!

Appetizers for your patriotic party don’t have to be hard. Everyone loves a charcuterie board and I’ve made plenty from Halloween to a patriotic charcuterie board with a red, white and blue theme.
This meat and cheese platter turned out so cute. It’s perfect for the 4th of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day and easy to customize for everyone’s liking.
Ingredients
- Mozzarella cheese: I used the mini pearls to make the stripes in the flag and sliced cut into stars.
- Pepperoni: I used the larger size pepperoni and made into ribbons. You can also use mini pepperonis.
- Blueberries: For the stars section.
- Star Cookie Cutter: To make the starts out of the cheese.
How to Make a Flag Charcuterie Board
1.Pour the blueberries onto the tray and gently push them to the left side to form the “stars” section of the flag.
2.Cut mozzarella into star shapes and place them on top of the blueberries.
3.To make the pepperoni ribbons, layer two slices slightly overlapping, fold in half, then fold again to form a loose ribbon shape.
4. Line the pepperoni ribbons in rows to create red stripes.
5. Finish by placing mozzarella balls in between the pepperoni rows to complete the flag stripes.
Tips & Variations
- Cheese Ideas: Use white cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or Swiss.
- Swap the Meats: Don’t love pepperoni? Try salami instead.
- Make it Sweet: Want a dessert version? Swap the pepperoni for strawberries, add mini marshmallows or white chocolate squares, and keep the blueberries as-is.
Leftover Storage
- Wrap any leftover meats and cheeses in plastic wrap or store in airtight containers separate in the fridge.
- Keep leftover blueberries in a sealed container and enjoy them within a few days.
If you prep the board in advance, wait to add crackers or bread until just before serving.
