Anyone interested in taking this class? Here's a little background.

Basically they've got a class running in Kensington Market that teaches you how to butcher your own meat. I know Ivan took something like this a year or two back and I've been sitting on my interest ever since, but now that they're offering it here I think I might register for one of the next sessions, whenever they're announced.

Come the apocalypse this would make ya real popular at parties. ;)

The Good Egg - Classes

Lemme know if anyone's interested.

I took a class at the Healthy Butcher on taking apart a whole pig. What I learned is that to take apart a whole pig you need a skilled butcher. This class looks much more practical. Also, Jennifer McLagan is teaching one of their sessions. She is a great food writer.

However, there are no classes actually scheduled at the moment. So yes, interested, but await further details!

This.
:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

I'm interested. If we can get enough people together, we could probably get our own session outside of the scheduled ones.

Yeah I'd totally be down. Haven't clicked on the link but I'd like it to be some animal I eat a lot of like pig or beef over something like deer. I sent Ryan to a deer butchering session at Cowbell last year, I believe he enjoyed it.

I'd go. It says they are all sold out :(

All I know about full pigs is that I wanna go to a BBQ joint that does whole hogs.

I saw one on triple D in Tennessee and it looked un-fuckin-believable. Even my wife who isn't nuts for real bbq was drooling.

I think Columbus should move to Raleigh or Charlotte just for the road trip purposes. Imagine a roadie to see TFC in Carolina, with endless Barbecue possibilites. :campione:

Was that the one with the crazy amount of rub that he climbed up on that massive thing to apply? He's actually had a couple on the show. One I remember he pulled out the shoulder bone like pulling a knife out of warm butter. Awesome.

Why's that show on before bedtime? <_<

Man, that sounds like it. Except it wasn't a bone... the guy says to Guy "this is the gold" (or something like that) and puts his hand in the area where bacon comes from and pulls out a hunk of meat that musta been 2 lbs. It was as easy as reaching into a pot of stew and pulling out a chunk of meat.

In a few weeks I'm drivin down to Disney with the family and we are stopping at a bbq joint that was on triple d. it's called Southern Soul BBQ. Just outside of Savannah, Georgia. I can't fuckin wait. I told the wife to be prepared for me to drop about 2 bills in the place, lol. We might be goin to Disney with 3 racks of ribs in the trunk.
