INTRO 101 – ADVANCED BBQ
OCT 18th, 2025 – 9AM – 1PM
Location: You Need A BBQ – 50, 100 Broadview Drive Sherwood Park
Since 2016 our competition BBQ team has been throwing down on the Alberta Cup BBQ circuit as well as taking on top pitmasters from across the United States and at the World BBQ Championships.
This class is a teaching and tasting experience where you’ll watch our pitmasters in action, learn their secrets, and get to eat delicious BBQ during the class. You’ll pick up invaluable tips and tricks from seasoned BBQ pros while enjoying a mouthwatering feast.
In this session, Ron, Brian, and Russ are gearing up for the American Royal World Series of BBQ in Kansas City, where they’ll be competing in the BBQ sides category. As a participant, you’ll get an exclusive chance to try, judge, and help refine the exact recipe we’ll be taking to the competition. You won’t just be watching history—you’ll be a part of making BBQ world championship history!
Our team will demonstrate how to prepare world champion pork ribs, competition chicken legs, perfectly trimmed, sliced brisket, reverse-seared steaks and one special side dish. These half-day classes run from 9am–1pm, and during that time you’ll enjoy all-you-can-eat BBQ, a couple of licensed beverages (if you’re over 18), and the company of people who love BBQ as much as you do.
This class requires no equipment or special tools—just bring your appetite, your curiosity, and maybe a notepad for your own BBQ adventures at home. Our #1 selling class has taught over 200 students and keeps people coming back because it’s that much fun.

Our BBQ Cooking Classes are designed to teach an every day back yard BBQer how to execute BBQ at a higher level. We offer classes on how to handle the big intimidating meats like brisket and we will teach you how we got 2nd at the world Rib Championships. We often have guest appearances from local Pit Masters, Instagram influencers, world class brands and more. These classes are an in depth way to discover how to use layers of flavour and control your cook so your BBQ is perfect every time.
When you take one of our barbeque cooking classes, be prepared to immerse yourself in all things BBQ. We teach trimming, seasoning, cooking, finishing techniques and much more. Who knows? Maybe one day you’ll be competing against us, turn that backyard hobby into BBQ fame and prizes!
Even if you’re taken one of our courses, we teach different techniques and meats at various classes throughout the year. Check back regularly as we add classes and they can sell out quickly. We announce our classes online in our Social Media channels as soon as they come out. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to get the latest info. Our newsletters are also great spots to get up to date info and sometimes even some cooking tips gleaned right from our classes.
