Only for someone who has never used a BBQ

Mr Ken 22 June 2026

As an experienced BBQ user didn’t get much value out of this 2 hour session. Venue and hosts were great.

BBQ School didn't provide service

Luis 6 February 2026

I bought a voucher for 2 people to attend BBQ and beer class trough RedBallon and we we directed to their provider BBQ School in Melbourne.We booked the class for a Saturday in Oct 2025 which was cancelled by BBQ School so we booked the class for another dsy later in Nov 2025 which couldn't attend die to medical emergency. I did inform BBQ School about thr emergency before the schedulled class and did provide the relevant medical certificates and we were told thst we are not entitled for a refund or to reschedule the class for another day, so dimply we have just lost our money and experience due to thrir policies which seem ti be working at their favour so it was nothing wrong for them cancelling our first session but definetely against costumers like us each for a genuine reason couldn't attend. I really hope they can improve the customer experience and think on users as much ad they think on their own interests

Poor Communication

Tony 17 June 2025

$ days before the course they cancel. Not much good for me, being from the country I had booked accommodation on which i could not get a refund

Hi Tony, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear your experience was impacted by the late cancellation.

A fun event and we learned a few cooking tricks

Graham 19 January 2020

I got this experience for my wife for a Christmas present as we both wanted to get a better understanding on how to cook seafood on the BBQ. We were shown how to prep and cook prawns, whole snapper, squid and salmon and best of all were then able to eat it all! Some nice beers tasted as well The afternoon was great and our hosts, Shane and Nick made it a very amusing event.

Terrible! Didn't even get the main course!

Annie 11 November 2019

We were extremely disappointed by this class and wish we had used our Red Balloon voucher on another product. The "experienced" chef had obviously never taken this class before and was so ill prepared/ disorganised it was beyond a joke.   The product description for the course states we will "learn tips on timing and skills to enhance the presentation", which is ironic as we were not even served the main course of snapper.  We left after 3hrs having eaten 1 prawn, 1 slice of calamari with a few lettuces leaves, and 1 soggy (not crispy skinned) slice of salmon with one wilted green each.  The class lacked any tips on actually cooking on BBQ and there was very little participation.

Seafood BBQ cooking class

John 10 November 2019

The class was scheduled for 3hours from 1130am. At 230pm. the two fish dishes had only just started to be cooked on the BBQ. In fact, one was taken from the BBQ and placed in an oven in a kitchen. The whole lesson seemed to concentrate on marinades. No time was spent on explaining the various techniques for actually cooking fish, which was my main reason for enrolling in the class. Very disappointed!

Tasty BBQ

Andrew 17 March 2019

Food and Chef were great Probably wanted more BBQ tips but was enjoyable

MEAT BBQ COOKING CLASS - DELICIOUS AND FUN!

Trish 14 June 2018

We are "Char griller's" no more! A great Sunday filled with funny chef's, great tips and tricks and amazing food, we helped cook! The best part eating! Do yourself a "flavour" and book in.

Great staff and great food

Cam 11 March 2018

Staff was very knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. I learnt a lot about BBQ'ing for larger occasions on all types of meat. The food prepared was delicious and matched the salads and drinks well

Should of been better

Robert 28 October 2017

The class was good and bad, I really expected more cooking than watching someone cook and listening to them talk. I understand some "theory" is required but this is meant to be a fun experience. A little less talking and more cooking would of made this experience that much better.
