My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we’d make meat
helmetshouses.

Of all of the little pigs houses this was the most disturbing. And the easiest for the wolf to get into

A fantastic appetizer before our Meatcake main dish!

The whole thing with gingerbread houses is they’re made of things that are still edible after being on display for weeks (albeit crispier than when you started). With this… not so much. I’d be surprised if it didn’t start to smell after a while, in fact… it’s definitely the kind of thing that only goes on display for a matter of a few hours at most, especially if you actually plan to eat any of it.

Your local food handling rules probably say 4 hours including the time to make it

Can’t see it lasting that long among us.

Being in the Northeast I could just set up a table and make it outside. By next month the biggest problem would likely be keeping things from freezing, but everything would stay in the safe temperature zone. You could even take your time with it. Chalet? Ha! Bring out the meat mansion!

I’m a simple man. A charcuterie re-purposed storage container is okay for me.

That is actually the canon “thought of it 10 minutes after I posted” moral of the story! Complicated by the charcuterie being his siblings
