About Your Instructor: Pitmaster – Chef Steve

With more than 20 years of experience in food, hospitality and catering the best BBQ, I have decided it’s time to pass on my knowledge.

I was proud to put my years of grilling and barbecuing experience to good use: “I love sharing the knowledge I’ve gathered, and seeing people gain confidence. The pleasure they get from their own abilities, tasting food they’ve cooked and it tastes great, and knowing that they can do it again because they have the techniques and they can be creative with that, not just following a recipe.”

What I understand is that the Smokin’ Man BBQ course – the first of its kind in North Carolina – had to be structured and specific: “I didn’t want to create a course that just gave a few recipes – I really want people to learn everything they can: the how and why. Thus, the reason I wanted to do these BBQ classes for Raleigh/Triangle and Eastern North Carolina.”
