Description

Good to Know

I have been grilling and BBQing for over 20 years, and have trained abroad in France, Spain, Argentina, Thailand, South Korea and other countries. As a native of the American South, I combine my culinary roots with eclectic and diverse flavor profiles. The result is a completely unique approach to grilling, based on science that marries traditionally Southern recipes and techniques with exciting ethnic-inspired flavors. With over 350 classes delivered and a perfect 5 out of 5 stars rating, I know you will leave my kitchen as a better griller and overall cook! Let's get grilling y'all! Other classes include: Pasta Making, Paella Basics, Sushi 101, Pizza Making.

Dinner

All food, including starter, main course, sides and dessert are included.

Carbonated beverages

All non-alcoholic beverages are included.

Alcoholic beverages

Feel free to BYOB!

We will be cooking and eating some of the best grilled food of your life! We'll begin by learning about preparation methods for various proteins (brining, dry rub, marinating) to ensure juicy, flavorful results. Then we'll prepare sauces with your proteins to further enhance their flavor. And to close out the evening, we'll make the entire meal on the grill for you to enjoy! The class focuses on the science and the "why" behind grilling techniques. You'll learn my "Golden Eight" rules for perfectly grilled proteins, and tips for searinglike a pro! WEATHER: While the weather in Portland can be unpredictable, our grilling patio is completely covered and we have outdoor heaters if the grill isn't keeping us warm enough! SOLO TRAVELERS: We love hosting, but a minimum of 2 guests is required to host the class. Solo travelers- please feel free to join existing classes, or book as a solo traveler and I will let you know if/when other guests join. Guests will need to cancel their reservation if no other travelers join. Last Minute Bookings: I will do my best to accommodate last minute bookings for parties of 2 or fewer. Larger parties must be booked at least 12 hours in advance.

Great dinner, Great learning, Great Instructor!

Blown away by the value and quality of the food we got, the time we spent, and the experience! I left with my stomach full and a learning experience I will never forget. Stephen incorporates the sciences behind how and why certain aspects of cooking are done a certain way. The lessons I learned are applicable to many facets of cooking and I am grateful I was able to be a part of this experience. Stephen also has a beautiful home and a super cute dog which only made it that much better.

Grilling and fun

Not only was the food great, but Steven is an excellent teacher and I learned a lot. Breaking down how and why cooking reactions happen makes it easier to understand cooking in general. I’ve done it twice and will definitely do it again.

Fun, educational, and delicious!

My wife and I took the grilling class with six other people. Chef Steven is an excellent teacher, talented chef, and warm host. We were surprised by how much we learned and how much we enjoyed the experience. It was as much of a classroom as a friendly supper club. We will be taking more classes!
