THE VEG BARBECUE CLASS
There are times when little tastes better than super-fresh, grilled vegetables – join this class to learn to make vegetables and fruit the centre of fantastic barbecues. In this relaxed, fun, vegetarian- and vegan-friendly class we cover a range of techniques and recipes to bring plant-based happiness to your grill.
If you are a vegetarian or vegan you’ll be familiar with the problem with going to barbecues – your needs are always overlooked! But if you are an omnivore and don’t make vegetable and fruit a big part of your barbecues then you are missing a huge trick too.

We work as a group to do the ingredient preparation and cooking, and there will be plenty of hands-on cooking. You will not cook every part of every dish, but you will see how it is done, and go away able to recreate everything we cover.
