Basic Butchery

This course offers a hands-on lesson in meat and traditional butchery skills. This is a demonstration of butchery from a whole animal, and an opportunity to develop skills in light butchery, and how to get the best out of different cuts of meat. You will learn about the structure of meat, how to choose the best cuts for dishes, and how to be discerning about the quality of the meat you cook with. There will be an opportunity at the completion of the course to purchase prepared products to cook at home. All basic materials will be supplied throughout the course.
