Butchery & Charcuterie Course Experience Days

Our butchery day course is designed for those who want to understand exactly where their food comes from and how to handle it with respect. Suitable for everyone from beginners and foodies to chefs and hunters, this butchery experience day moves beyond what you might glean from a video. Under the guidance of a master butcher, you and your course mates will learn the essential cutting and tying techniques required to manage a whole animal in your own kitchen. This is a practical, one day butchery course where you will get your hands into the craft—making your own sausages and starting the cure for a bresaola or salami using traditional methods.

Beyond the block, the day is a celebration of British produce. You will enjoy a factory tour, coffee, canapés, and a full charcuterie tasting lunch paired with English wine. As for the results of your labour, you’ll take home your butchered joints and sausages immediately. For the more patient elements of the butchery masterclass, such as your hand-made salamis, we will hang and air-dry them in our curing room, posting them out to you once they have reached their peak. If you have been searching for a one day butchery course near me that offers a genuine look into the artisanal world of Bray Cured, this is the place to start.
