I think you did a great job. I wish I had such gloves too. This class looks useful – I have difficulties when it comes to cutting meat. I know it’s a matter of practise but I can never be sure am I doing the things right.

This looks great. Have been looking for a decent butchery course for a gift for the other half. £100 is not bad at all when you consider all the meat you get.

That looks like an excellent class- I LOVE going to cookery classes and attended quite a few at Billingsgate Seafood Cookery School @ the market which I highly recommend. I also learnt a lot of Japanese dishes from Reiko Hashimoto of Hashi Cooking.

I had so much fun at this class – a lot more than I thought I would. I can’t wait to try out all those bits of meat too. Mmm lamb.

Brilliant stuff. Looks like you had a great time. I can completely believe what you say about the different approach boys and girls have. I’d probably steam in like Daniel Day Lewis from Gangs of New York wielding nothing but a machete. Well done Allens.

You know my father has this skill and we always goes to a farm, select our lamb adn then he processes it in his “butcher shop” that he set up in the garage. I can also watch him for hours. Nice read, keep it comin’!!!

Niamh – It will indeed but I agree, totally worth promoting. A fabulous class that deserves to be written about.

Martin – DO it!! You must. You won’t regret it, I promise.

gastrogeek – It’s so much fun and so relaxed. I was daunted at first but we had such a laugh and I think it’s amazing value for the money considering all the meat you get to take home and all the skills gained. Best thing I’ve done in ages.

I am definitely going to sign up for this, I’ve been thinking of doing a butchery class for some time now. This one looks fantastic!
