Looking for the perfect present for your favorite carnivore? Or looking to bring a gift to that big family get-together? igourmet.com's Meat and Cheese Favorites brings together over three pounds of our best-selling cured meats and savory cheeses to take on the biggest appetites! From spicy salami and tangy cheddar, to smoky ham and creamy swiss, your group can come up with terrific combinations while snacking through this basket. This basket includes:
  • Alpen Shinken: Black Kassel introduced us to this Alpine-style schinken. (Schinken is German for ham.) This full-flavored, lean ham is dry-cured and smoked. With its delicate texture, and thin slices, it is perfect on bread, with fruit, or an antipasto platter. (4 oz.)
  • Molinari Pepperoni: P.G. Molinari's pepperoni is made from coarse chopped pork and beef to create a lean combination. It is dried with a spicy hot flavor. Good for pizza or just for a snack. (5 oz.)
  • Piller's Black Kassel Salami : In 1957, Wilhelm Huber opened a small butcher shop in Waterloo, Ontario, using family recipes and traditional European meat processing methods. Five generations later, Piller's Black Kassel is still family owned and operated and is still using Wilhelm's techniques and recipes. (3 oz.)
  • Carnegie Mustard: Savor the taste of the mustard served at New York City's famous Carnegie Deli. This classic Dusseldorf mustard contains whole grain mustard seeds blended with vinegar, tumeric, and spices, to create this bold mustard. (8 oz.)
  • Allgau Emmental: Commonly referred to as Bavarian Swiss, this is arguably the most famous cheese made in Germany. Made from pure Bavarian milk, it is high in protein and has that familiar, yet special flavor. (8 oz.)
  • Great Ocean Road Cheddar: This sharp white cheddar hails from Australia, where it joins Stokes Point and Mainland Cheddar as a new favorite from down under. (8 oz.)
  • Provolone Dolce: Our Provolone Dolce is produced from selected cow's milk in Italy. It is aged for only a short period of time, allowing it to maintain the delicacy of the milk taste in the cheese. (8 oz.)
  • Cream Havarti with Dill: Rich and creamy, this classic cheese is given the deliciously fresh flavor of dill. Wonderful in mashed potatoes! (8 oz.)
  • Bremner Wafers: Perfect for serving with cheeses, fruit, and spreads when entertaining. (4 oz.)
  • This basket comes in a sturdy pine crate, handmade in Maine.
Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

Comments about Basket of Meat and Cheese Favorites:

Sent this to a friend to let her know we were thinking of her as she was 1500 miles away acting as caregiver to her mom and dad. She would not be home for another month or so.
She was elated and surprised when the package arrived. She decided to save it for use as appetizer to the families Mothers Day function.
Needless to say her family was very delighted and impressed that their sister had friends with such delightful "taste". They really appreciated all the flavor in each bite.
That made it all worth while.
Thank you.
