Customer Reviews
Sam & Shauna are the perfect duo for a fully emmersive bbq course. We cooked together, learnt about bbq's, tried them all, ate like queens. So many skills shared and we can't wait to put them into action. One of THE best days EVER, so much fun and you need to get booking!!!!
We have just spent an amazing day with Sam and Shauna at their beautiful outdoor kitchen. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough, it is a fantastic opportunity to learn tips and tricks and cook amazing tasty food whilst being guided by the uk’s best outdoor chef.
Thank you ladies for an exceptional day, fabulous food and fantastic company. Highly recommend Jo & rob
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our day with Sam & Shauna. They look after you really well, taught us some great techniques and tips and we walked away full of confidence to try some new things. It was so worth it, and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in upping their BBQ game.
The amount of knowledge I gained from this session with the delightful Sam and Shauna is incredible! So much to take away, from fuel sources and how to use them, to different types of bbqs, I think there were 8 up and running by the end of the day! The food cooked was incredible, who knew a scotch egg could be made on a bbq? Cooking salmon on Ceder boards was a new one for me and it did not disappoint, neither did the mackerel, but just as important, learning about the accompaniment salads was a highlight. All of this with great company and a beautiful outdoor kitchen garden to spend it in. What a delight it is to sit and eat the course that you’ve just cooked, and chat with others, glass of wine in hand, eager to find out what is next on the menu. I’ll be booking onto this again, one of the best days I’ve had in a long time, thanks Sam and Shauna, I learnt a great amount of bbq knowledge see you soon
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our BBQ class at Sam and Shauna’s. The food was delicious and we learnt so much during the day. The class was a great size, small enough so everyone could get really involved in the prep and the cooking. I would highly recommend the class, thanks so much Sam and Shauna, we will be back!
