Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this bbq cooking class:

When you arrive we will put an apron on you,  hand you a knife and our step-by-step manual, and then show you how to prepare a 12-14lb whole brisket.

You will then go to a lab table where you and your teammates, with a lab assistant, will prepare your own brisket and take it to one of our smokers. Then you will do the same with pork butts, ribs, chicken, pork loin, and what ever else we feel like cooking that day.

At 5:00 P.M. you will help us prepare our day’s work for a delicious banquet at 6:00P.M. Invite a guest or take some home. In all, expect to cook over 200 lbs of meat shoulder-to-shoulder with us Pro’s. Guarantee you will have a lot of fun and probably make some new friends.
