  • 5/5 from Anna Beaver, attended Sep 2024: Loved the passion and knowledge displayed by the presenters. I learned a lot about cooking steak, which I thought I had a good knowledge of until I did this class!
  • 5/5 from Tony Fitzwater, attended Sep 2024: Good afternoon learnt a lot a lot of info re different cuts of meats and different ways to cook each piece
  • 5/5 from Helena Hurst, attended Jun 2024: Great class! Mark the chef was great and made everyone feel comfortable. My partner and I learned a lot and are keen to try out the recipes at home! Already recommended the class to a friend. Thanks again!
  • 4/5 from Tim Ryan, attended Feb 2024: Turned up to the Indro Hotel with a little bit of nervousness as the place does look like a crack den that should have been torn down 20yrs ago! Was greeted by the Cooking School crew and grabbed a beer on entry. Class was very good our Chefs/Teachers were excellent, very knowledgeable and approachable, I would encourage people to ask heaps of questions, I thought I knew a fair bit about cooking but learnt so much from the day. Food was good but unfortunately we were 3 of the last ones to eat and all of the salad and sweet potato and most of the chicken was gone, we had about 17 people so I am not sure if they skimped on the food or if people had too much each (pretty poor that our fellow classmates didn’t leave enough for others but perhaps over cater on salad and veges?) Only had 2 beers provided which I thought was a bit on the short side, but we made up for it by grabbing some extras that we had to pay for. Other down side of the location is constant road and rail noise that makes it a bit hard to hear. Might sound like a negative post but I would definitely do another class as we had a good time, if the other stuff had of worked out it could have been amazing!

The BBQ Cooking School

4.8 (567)

BBQ Cooking Classes, Corporate Events & Catering. Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Caberra, Perth and the Hunter Valley.
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.
