Are you doing more “charring” than “grilling” or simply looking to brush up on your barbecue skills? Whether you’re a novice, or just looking to freshen up your expertise, our hands-on barbecue meat class will have you searing steaks like a pro all in the beautiful surroundings of Centennial Park!
The day starts with your chefs/meat masters giving you a rundown on how the session will operate while you enjoy a complimentary ice-cold beer. After they give an initial demonstration, you will join the class in building your first course together, giving everyone a perfect chance to practise their technique.
After everyone has devoured the first course, you’ll get to work preparing the mains. You’ll be taught how to effectively utilise rubs and salts, sauces and marinades, as well as how to make delicious accompaniments that truly complement the meat.
Finish off the cooking lesson with a group feast where everyone will enjoy their cooking creations over a premium beer or glass of vino.
On the menu:
  • BBQ Tandoori Chicken with Kachumber wrapped in Paratha
  • BBQ Bass Strait Beef Sirloin with Field Mushrooms and Porcini Butter
  • BBQ Greek Style Lamb with Fat Roasted Potato and Kale Salad
These group cooking classes are perfect if you're looking for fun birthday ideas, unique ideas for a bucks party, and corporate cooking classes.

The BBQ Cooking School

4.8 (568)

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.
