Event Overview

In this class, students will learn the basics of grilling meats, seafood and vegetables. After prepping the food, we will step outside where each student can try their hand at grilling up some fantastic food.

Students will sample various flavors and styles of grilled food, dining on an entire meal, from appetizer to dessert. This is a BYOB class but a few pitchers of fresh mixed cocktails (perhaps a margarita or a mojito? Something summery!) will be on the house!

Recipes that you will learn during the course of this class include BBQ chicken tenders, bacon wrapped pineapple shrimp skewers, grilled guacamole, chimichurri steak, grilled whiskey pineapple and more. Students will leave the course with a full stomach and a better understanding of grilling basics, such as meat temperature, marinating, and delicious and simple sauces that can liven up any entree. Students will also receive a recipe packet to take home.

Minimum age

All ages welcome

Prerequisites

Enthusiasm and an empty stomach!

    My husband and I had a wonderful time trying all the food last night. This is a great class for grilling basics, and Leah was a gracious host and knowledgeable instructor. The recipes were simple, yet so tasty! We all felt at home and had a hard time leaving last night. We also picked up some tips on where to find good spices and food for grilling!

    From Teacher:

    Aileen! You're such a sweetheart. Thank you so much for your kind words, I am so happy that you had a good time AND learned something which is the whole point right? : )

    Thanks again and hope to see you again!

    It was very nice. I was glad it was a small group...we kind of connected a little. Everyone was friendly thanks to the comfortable atmosphere created by the teacher.

    From Teacher:

    Hi Marcy,

    Thanks so much for the review! I'm so glad you had a good time. I try to be a good entertainer and teacher but sometimes it's difficult to reach out to everyone when there are a bunch of people.

    You're right about the recipes; next time I'm going to cut one and do a bit more prep so the class goes faster! That was the first time I taught that particular so it was a learning process for me too : )

    Thanks again,
    Leah
