Read MoreI’ve always been very good at smoking/roasting chicken but this course taught me a lot of fun tricks from folding under the wingtips, to straining out the sediment of an injection, to Rib bone removal. I really enjoyed this course a lot and look forward to the next one with eager anticipation.

Read MoreOkay, I'm a pretty experience BBQ guy and I learned so much! Andy's easy explanation of what to look for in your meat, to trimming, seasoning, cooking and finishing was just the best. I'd say the two biggest things I took from these classes were how to properly trim your meat for the best results and how to inject seasoning without it just coming right back out. Every single course I learned something new and Andy explains this all in an easy going manner. Well worth the $$
