This is the Best Christmas Sausage Platter
The essential products for any Christmas sausage platter are:
Iberian Ham
Buy Iberian Ham
Iberian Chorizo
This is another delicacy made from the authentic pigs of our peninsula. When buying it, make sure it's top-quality Iberian chorizo, which ensures the pigs have been raised in the meadows and their meat has been cared for as it should be. No matter how you like it, you can even integrate it into delicious dishes, such as lentils with chorizo.

Iberian Salami
Salami is very similar to chorizo but prepared with different spices and is usually thinner. When buying it, do the same as before, and you can get it as a whole piece or sliced, the important thing is to buy it from a trusted store like our ham shops.

Iberian Loin
This is the meat obtained from the loin of authentic Iberian pigs and is also known as "lomo embuchado." Its flavor is milder than that of chorizo or salami, but it's just as distinctive!
Cheese
Although not essential in a good Christmas sausage platter, we definitely recommend including cheese. Whether you choose cured cheese, semi-cured, or any other, the important thing is that it's of high quality so you can enjoy all its nuances.

What Else Do I Need for My Christmas Sausage Platter
In addition to everything mentioned above, there are three more things you should include on your shopping list: bread, extra virgin olive oil, and "picos sevillanos" (Spanish breadsticks). Bread is the perfect complement for any type of cold cuts, and you can serve it toasted or untoasted; the important thing is that it's crispy. After you've sliced it and have the toasts ready, drizzle some extra virgin olive oil on them and serve them with the cold cuts—you'll see how delicious it is!
If you prefer "picos sevillanos" over this option, it will be just as good. Additionally, if you're going to pair this platter with wine, the breadsticks will help cleanse your palate and let you appreciate the nuances of Iberian ham, chorizo, or salami even more. Now that you know how to create the best Christmas sausage platter, what are you waiting for? Buy everything and prepare it!
