INTERMEDIATE CLASSES

INTERMEDIATE CLASSES
I run a changing selection of INTERMEDIATE LEVEL classes, loosely depending on what people tell me they want to learn. So if you have specific ideas feel free to drop us an email and we can chuck it into the mix when planning sessions.

There is a little less ‘formal’ instruction on the principles of barbecue and open fire cooking so these classes are best suited to people who come with some good basic skills, those who cook regularly outside or have been to a previous Bristol Fire School class. Having said that, everyone is welcome to come armed with as many questions as you like, and a reminder that no one leaves without an understanding of why good pure fuel is always the most important ingredient in fire cooking.

We will cook on a variety of kit, from kettle barbecues to open fires to wood fired and kamado ovens, with the emphasis on lighting the kit most similar to that students attending have in their own gardens.

Please note:
Class sizes will be small to allow for a friendly, hands-on learning environment. The Bristol Fire School is located in my garden a couple of miles from Temple Meads Station in Bristol city centre. There is plenty of parking on the street for those that travel by car. The exact location will be confirmed to each student a few days before class. Unless the weather is extraordinarily wild, classes go ahead come rain or shine so please come with warm layers, waterproofs if necessary, and close-toed shoes.

Cancellation Policy: Classes can be cancelled for a full refund up to 3 weeks before the class, you can also reschedule your class to another date providing there is room. If you cancel with less than three weeks notice you will get a refund or be able to reschedule if I am able to fill the place with someone else. With enough notice I am often able to fill places but if you cancel at the last minute its pretty tricky.
