How to make the most of your ingredients when cooking with meat, whether it’s aged beef or salt marsh lamb.
From simple roasts to heart warming braises, including chefs tips to ensure perfection every time. The day involves some practical, hands on work with one or more cuts of meat and a hosted trip to meet either one of our meat suppliers or farmers. There will also be an interactive Masterclass run by our Head Chef showing you some more detailed cooking techniques and delicious dinner party recipes.
Please come hungry as the day involves lots of eating and tasting of food throughout, starting with a light breakfast on arrival and ending with a delicious meat feast with a glass of wine, all in the wonderful surroundings of our beach house hotel.
A Typical Day
Welcome:
Meet at the Bistro for a welcome tea or coffee and a light Gallivant breakfast where you can meet your hosts and other guests.
Meet the supplier:
Jump aboard our coach and come with us to meet one of our butchers or farmers. A chance to ask questions and get to know more about the meat that is reared around us. Pick something out of the cold store to take back to the Bistro to cook.
Tea/coffee break:
Return to the Beach Bistro for a coffee or tea with a tasty Gallivant treat.
Master class demonstration:
Watch how our Head Chef turns some of the meat sourced earlier in the day into delicious dishes that can be cooked at home with ease. From simple preparation to more elaborate cooking techniques. Be prepared to get involved and work with some of the meat yourself. Taste the dishes as they come to life. Complete recipe sheets will be supplied.
Break:
Stretch your legs on the beach for 20 minutes while our chefs put the finishing touches to your Meat Feast.
