Master the art of authentic, low ’n’ slow American barbecue with hands-on classes hosted at top venues across Melbourne, including Hark Enterprises in Dandenong and select ALH Group Pubs.

 

Led by world-class pitmasters—like award-winning competition veteran Ross Walker of Firehouse Barbecue -these interactive sessions go far beyond standard recipe books. You’ll dive deep into the fundamental "how and why" of great BBQ, learning essential, repeatable techniques including meat trimming, custom seasoning, precise fire management, moisture retention, and proper resting strategies.

Designed for backyard cooks of all skill levels, classes feature accessible, real-world equipment like Weber Kettles, Drum Smokers, and Bullet Smokers so you can easily recreate pitmaster-quality results at home.

 

Expect an engaging, multi-sensory experience filled with real fires, rich smoke, and serious flavor. Whether you prefer to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty or kick back with a cold beer from the bar while soaking in expert tips, you'll walk away with the confidence, knowledge, and skills to dominate your next cookout.
