Recent reviews of Seafood BBQ Cooking Class

  • 4/5 from Peter King, attended Oct 2026: Shane & Steve were great. Both very knowledgeable and willing to give their time and offer useful tips. Problem is 3hrs is not enough time to cover all recipes and structure the learning program to satisfy all students. I felt the course was rushed, meaning 3 of the 4 recipes advertised had important elements and ingredients left out. Peter
  • 5/5 from Jeffrey Bond, attended Jun 2025: The class was practocal and informative. Receipies were yummy, easy to do and by participating you were shown the little shortcuts that made a big difference! I'm so glad i did the class.
  • 4/5 from Alistair Lang, attended Jun 2025: Shane and his colleagues were enthusiastic and informative - risk aware of cross contamination- useful timing advice and certain chef tricks. Food was delicious and glad to have attended. Was if worth the money - just about - it was let down by a terrible location. The Indooroopilly Hotel should be condemned - perhaps that’s what ALH are aiming for. To be greeted by the entry door to the ‘Terrace’ with a long uncleared pile of bird excrement was not the best way to begin.
  • 5/5 from Chris Fardon, attended Oct 2023: The teacher was knowledgeable and patient with his students. Good use of humour. Would recommend the class to anyone looking for a fun day with good food and time with a friend or partner.
  • 5/5 from Phil Dawson, attended Aug 2023: The class was excellent and the the teachers were fun and informative. The food we cooked was tasty and will be something we can replicate easily at home.
  • 5/5 from David Huynh, attended Jun 2022: Was a good class. Well delivered and provided hands on experience. Instructor was very knowledgeable.
  • 4/5 from Bryan McLennan, attended Feb 2021: Shane was obviously very experienced and knowledgable about food and liked to share this knowledge. This meant we went over time to finish the day. This was not a problem for me but it could be for some. The facility was perfect for a BBQ class but the toilets were disgraceful. Obviously no-one had checked them before the class started. I loved being greeted with a beer on arrival.
  • 1/5 from Katrina Gould, attended Sep 2020: Not very hands on at all. Equally nothing new to learn. This is a class for someone who does not cook at all and hasn’t even picked up a piece of seafood! Made 1 salad that was really just lettuce leaves, some fennel, grapefruit and balsamic. But wait for itthe prawn skewers was just some curry paste with yoghurt and coriander. Didn’t even make our own curry paste! Teacher was disorganised and did not have everything at hand. Do not recommend and would not do a class of any sort from that venue again.

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.
