About our BBQ School
BBQ Workshop is an independent, dedicated BBQ Cookery School, our purpose is to show people how to barbeque like a pro. We want everyone to enjoy their day at a class and we aim to make things informal, enjoyable and interactive.
Our philosophy is that you come as customer and leave as a friend.

The Workshops are run by Jackie Weight. Jackie has over 30 years experience of BBQ, producing everything from simple cooks, to low ‘n’ slow American style BBQ, gourmet cooking and baking on the BBQ. She also has commercial experience in curing and cold smoking everything from bacon to salmon, as well as making fabulous sausages and burgers.
“Jackie has competed in BBQ competitions around the USA, culminating in winning the Jack Daniels World BBQ Championships”, considered to be the ‘Superbowl’ of Barbecue. Thus far, she is the only non-American and only woman to ever win the prestigious Grand Champion title.
Jackie has also run a successful Restaurant Consultancy business, working with restaurants and outside caterers to produce world class barbecue; she now feels it’s time to pass on her knowledge to anyone who wants to learn, via her BBQ School.
