Home-Smoking and Aga Cookery Courses

After two recent articles in February '08 in the Guardian and Sunday Times - 'staggeringly lovely fare', demand for Bill's Smoking Courses has far exceeded expectations! We are running them several times a year in the Spring and Autumn and try to suit specific requirements, so if dates below do not suit, do ask and we will see what we can do.

The smoking course covers all the basics of home-smoking from building the smoker and generating the right kind of smoke to brining and curing fish and meat, turning it into succulent smoked food and then, most importantly, eating it! We smoke salmon, trout, haddock, mackerel, various other white fish, mussels, cheese, garlic, eggs, venison and pork sausages, venison and beef, pork for bacon and ham. For more details click on the link below 'How to build a smoker'.

The next Smoking Course with space available is on Sept. 30th/

Oct. 1st and we charge £150 for the first participant with a partner or friend paying just £100. This is for the 2 day course with all tastings, lunch and a big dinner on day one and a long late lunch on day 2. Bed and breakfast is available in one of our 5 star cottages with hot tub for £35 a night (help yourself from ingredients we supply mostly from the croft and Fairtrade). Full payment for the course is due on booking with b. and b. and any extras paid on departure. Bring some wine to enjoy at dinner/supper if you like as we do not have a license. You could even consider staying for a weeks holiday in the other cottage Rose.

Further dates for 2008 are

May 7th/8th (full)

June 4th/5th (full)

Sept 29th/Oct 1st

Dec 3rd/4th

and in 2009

March 18th/19th

April 22nd/23rd

We are also running a course from Ardeonaig Hotel, Loch Tay on the 6th/7th December '08.

Cookery courses based on Aga Cookery cover Sukie’s philosophy of simple tasty food. An amazing array of dishes are produced over the two day course, bound to impress your friends.

Courses can be arranged to suit your group of friends who want to get to grips with particular subjects or for a single person to join a group.
