Master the Art of Flame at The Artisans Kitchen: BBQ Classes in Hampshire
At The Artisans Kitchen & Cookery School, we believe cooking should be fun, flavourful, and fired by passion — quite literally. Nestled in the heart of Hampshire, just outside Liss, our BBQ classes are an unforgettable experience that blends hands-on learning with smoky indulgence. Whether you're a seasoned grill master or a curious foodie, our barbecue courses are designed to ignite your culinary confidence.
What Makes Our BBQ Classes Sizzle?
Our expert-led BBQ classes are set in the beautiful surrounds of The Timber Barn, combining indoor teaching with outdoor grilling on top-of-the-line equipment including Traeger pellet grills, Napoleon gas BBQs, and Monolith ceramic cookers.
Each session is small and sociable — perfect for individuals, couples, or small groups looking to improve their skills. You’ll learn everything from fire control and smoke flavouring to rubs, marinades, and perfect meat prep. And of course, there’s plenty to taste along the way.
