Events Calendar

Judy and French food are like bread and cheese – you can experience one without the other, but why would you want to? Judy adores the rich flavours of the French countryside and is keen to share her understanding of them so you, too, can revel in these classic dishes at home. Book early for this popular class!

Judy is mad for the rustic foods of Europe, the ones family cooks have been making for eons, based on seasonal local ingredients. In this class, she tackles Italian country cooking, those recipes travelers practically faint over as they’re describing them to you when they get back home. With Judy’s able assistance you’ll learn how to create your own dolce vita.

OFF-SITE LOCATION – GLAMORGAN COMMUNITY CENTRE

Barbecue Evangelist Rockin’ Ronnie Shewchuk and his fellow Butt Shredders have schooled generations of backyard barbecue champions over the years. It’s time you get indoctrinated! This all-day, hands-on workshop at Calgary’s Glamorgan Community Centre is a life-changing experience. Paired up in teams of two, you’ll learn the essentials of classic Southern-Style barbecue by prepping and cooking ribs and chicken just like it’s done in the big competitions. Ronnie will demonstrate how to make barbecue rubs and sauces, and he and his team mates will teach you the tips, tricks and techniques of championship barbecue. You’ll also hear Ronnie’s favourite stories from life on the competitive barbecue circuit. All the gear you need will be supplied, including Weber Smokey Mountain Cookers. You just need to bring an apron and be sure to dress for the weather. The day includes a barbecue feast for lunch, two beverages per person and a copy of Ronnie’s bestselling book, Barbecue Secrets DELUXE!. If you want, you can bring your own smoker or covered charcoal grill, too – it’s a great way to break it in!* This class sells out early, so book now to ensure a spot!

Participants get a copy of Ron’s book or a gift certificate for $30.00

*Please note: if you want to bring your own smoker, please let us know ahead of time. Space is limited and you may be asked to share some cooker space with another person.
