The Food School Bangkok, a well-regarded institute blending culinary courses from Alma, Tsuji, and Dusit Thani College, has a selection of specialized short courses for students to elevate cookery aptitudes, regardless of culinary backgrounds. Butchery is a popular skill these days, with more people eager to learn proper techniques and enhance proficiency.
An immersive Rump and Loin Primal Butchery course and a Whole Pork Carcass Butchery course are soon to get underway, led by Joe Sloane, a world-renowned chef and founder of Sloane’s Group, and Kevin Tyrell, a master butcher who has over 40 years of expertise.
Joe is a seasoned British butcher, who honed his craft in leading restaurants and five-star hotels prior to founding Sloane’s, his own artisan butchery company. Kevin has helped to grow Sloane’s into one of Thailand’s top meat suppliers, selling food all over the country.
You will be shown how to transform every part, down to the trim and bones, into flavourful dishes, ensuring nothing goes to waste. The class includes hands-on tuition, alongside an assignment where you’re asked to prepare Pork in Cider and Mustard Sauce, which gives the amateur chefs a platform to practise techniques, and showcase their new-found skills.
