Please note: Looking to do a private class for a corporate event, birthday party or special occasion? Check out our private bbq cooking classes!
Combine your love of American style smoking and BBQ cooking in this fun, hands-on class where you'll learn about BBQ techniques from Texas to Memphis to Carolina and Kansas.
In this class which is perfect for beginners, you will learn about the four main BBQ regions of the United States and the differences between them. Explore techniques such as smoking with charcoal and the low and slow method! On arrival to your cooking class, you will be provided with a cold beer and an apron before being welcomed by your chefs for the day. They will outline expected competencies from the session, discuss the format of the day and introduce the menu.Â
During the class, there will be meat that has been pre-smoked and cooked so the end product can be tasted and discussed. You and the chef will also prepare fresh meat for smoking to demonstrate and learn the techniques. The chef will cover equipment, the Texas crutch method, troubleshooting, tips on rubs, timing, and temperatures and of course the perfect accompaniments.

BBQ School was founded in 2004 by internationally trained chef and passionate foodie Ben Farley who identified that while many Aussies were really into cooking on the BBQ, most only had one or two recipes they knew how to cook really well.
Showing keen BBQ’ers how to prepare and confidently cook a collection of simple, effective and tasty recipes was the best way forward and so in 2004 Ben turned his back on a career in Sydney and London high profile restaurants and founded BBQ School.
In our classes, we assume no knowledge but have found that the more a student knows about BBQ cooking, the more they learn from our experienced chef presenters.
To date around 90, 000 people have been taught through the BBQ School.
Our head office is in Willoughby, Sydney but we also operate regular classes in Sydney's Centennial Park, Melbourne, Brisbane and the Hunter Valley and each year the School continues to grow in response to people who wish to cook with more flair when entertaining.

Teacher's response
Hi David,
Thanks for attending our class on Saturday and we appreciate your business. We apologise that the class didn’t meet your exceptions. This fun and engaging class is open to people with all levels of experience, with you having so many years in experience I can understand it didn’t offer you the challenge you may have expected.
Kind Regards,
Ben Farley
