On the 1st of August, Smokey Rebel joins forces with Welshhomestead Smokery at their home grounds for a rare field-to-fork experience that goes far beyond cooking over fire.
This is not just a barbecue class. It’s a full journey into where food truly comes from.
The day begins with the respectful dispatch of a goat on site. From that moment forward, you’ll follow the entire process as we prepare the animal together and demonstrate how every part can be used and respected.
Nothing wasted. Nothing hidden. Just honest food, fire, and knowledge shared.
You’ll see how the animal is prepared for cooking, how different cuts are handled, and how traditional fire cooking turns a whole animal into incredible food.
Along the way we’ll also demonstrate how the hide can be treated and tanned, giving you a hands-on look at traditional skills rarely seen today.
Throughout the day you’ll be working alongside us around the fire, seasoning, preparing, cooking, and tasting as the goat slowly becomes the centrepiece of a shared feast.
Expect a relaxed but immersive day combining the homestead traditions of Welshhomestead Smokery with the fire-driven cooking of Smokey Rebel.
There will be drinks flowing throughout the day and a selection of incredible food that you’ll help cook and enjoy together around the fire.
This is about understanding the whole story of food from field, to fire, to the table.
Come hungry. Come curious. And come ready to get your hands a little dirty.
