Hosted at On The Hoof HQ in Gosford Forest Park, from 10am - 4:30pm
We at On The Hoof are all about cooking in the outdoors and cooking over real wood fires. Over the years we've learned lots of great tips and tricks from pit-masters, and now we're passing them on to you.
This amazing one-day course will set you up with all the knowledge and skills you need to start cooking over fire confidently at home.
From breakfast to supper, everything will be cooked over our wood fires, with the opportunity to cook on our smoker, wood fired pizza oven, open fire pit and many more great methods of fire cookery from all over the world.
Your day will include all refreshments, and of course you'll be enjoying lots of dishes created over the course of the day. Concluding with a BBQ feast featuring some amazing low and slow dishes you’ll have made with us.
And we won’t just be cooking! You will learn to build, light and manage a fire. Understand the importance of wood selection, and how to source sustainable suppliers.
Expect to head home with the smell of wood smoke, a full belly, and a new passion for cooking outdoors and over an open fire.
Throughout the day the course will be a combination of cookery demonstration and hands on experience. At the end of the day there will be a chance to answer any burning questions which may have come to mind.
We will be using ingredients sourced from within our Food Heartland where possible, and please bring some reusable containers to take home any tasty leftovers!
