Celebrate in true stars-and-stripes style with our immersive Americana Cookery Class at The Artisans Kitchen, a full-throttle, flavour-packed cooking experience inspired by classic American backyard feasts. If you love BBQ, bold flavours and generous portions, this is the class for you.
Over 5–6 delicious hours, you’ll dive into the smoky, nostalgic world of American comfort food, learning how to cook low and slow, build big flavours, and create an all-American spread that’s perfect for feeding a crowd. From Southern BBQ classics to diner-style favourites, we’ll keep things rustic, hearty and seriously satisfying with a few chef-worthy twists along the way.
This hands-on class is relaxed, sociable and designed for all skill levels, whether you’re a confident BBQ pitmaster or just love a good burger and ribs.
