Deck the smoker and get ready to WOW holiday guests! This hands-on class covers three showstopping centerpiece meats: smoked turkey, prime rib, and pork tenderloin. They are perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any festive gathering where students want to trade the oven for something a little more legendary this year. Scott will cover the full journey from butcher counter to holiday table: selecting the right cut, prepping and seasoning like a pro, and mastering the cooking techniques that turn a simple roast into the star of the feast. Students will learn to judge doneness by taste and tenderness, not just a timer, and get a clear cooking timeline for each protein so their holiday cooking goes off without a hitch: no last-minute kitchen panic, no dry turkey, and no stress. Scott will also settle the great smoker debate once and for all: offset vs. pellet vs. drum. Students will learn how each one shapes flavor, moisture, and cook time so they can pick their perfect holiday sidekick. And naturally, no holiday gathering is complete without a taste test. Students will sample every dish hot off the smoker. Bring your appetite. Leave with a plan for the best holiday spread of your life.
