The shareable, interactive element of “building” a grazing board is one of the very same reasons consumers love pizza— so why is it so rare to see pizzerias include charcuterie boards as a menu item?

When it comes to sandwiches, there’s a world of flavor out there. Quite literally. From the Mexican torta to the Italian panini, American cheeseburger to Vietnamese Bánh mì, cultures all over this great planet love to show off what they can create on simple slices of bread. 

To some, a single slice of toast is just a place to put butter, jelly, peanut butter, or cinnamon and sugar. But not you. You see it as a canvas for creativity. And if you don’t, you will soon. Because there’s more to toast than using it to build the expected.

We’ve all been there. We buy a new loaf of bread with grand intentions of eating it all in some spectacular fashion outside of PB&J. But, as the days go by, the bread sits there. Soon turning to a dry, stale loaf. But not this time! This time you’ll be ready.

This summer, think beyond the hamburger bun. Throw some artisan bread on that barbie. With La Brea Bakery baguettes, you can take simple backyard get-togethers to tasty new heights. The easiest way? Just brush some butter or olive oil on sliced baguettes and put them face down on the grill.

Hot cheese and grilled bread – an easy equation for true deliciousness.
