A charcuterie board at a carne asada is out of place, but a board piled high with crunchy chicharrón and all your favorite quesos sets the stage for the rest of the party. This recipe is inspired by my father’s go-to snack whenever he has visitas (company): roughly chopped quesillo cubes on a plate topped with a can of jalapeños with plenty of its brine, too. If you were ever to visit him, he would probably also go to the corner store to buy some freshly fried irresistible chicharrón
