You won't want to miss this year's class ! After reviewing and updating the class content to include the latest techniques,
your instructor Rodney Schaffer has set the 2011 schedule. Classes meet in two sessions - allowing more time to cover critical
aspects of food handling, food safety and sausage making. This year we are offering two options: one class will be held on two
consecutive Wednesdays, the second option is for 2 consecutive days in the same week (Tuesday and Wednesday). When making your
reservation, please note which dates the class will meet.
We teach you safe and efficient processing techniques along with
tricks of the trade in the two evening class. Each class will
be held from 6:00pm-8:30pm on two week nights. Pre-registration is
required and class sizes are limited to 20 students.
CLASS LOCATION
Since 2008, we have been holding the class 'just up the
road' at the Butler County Vo-Tech School in the Culinary Arts
Department. The center is located at 210 Campus Lane, Butler, PA
16001 (Click HERE for map )
The location allows us to offer a better hands-on experience and to
accomodate more students in each class so no one will have to be
turned away until next year !
Even with the larger space, classes will
fill quickly so please choose one of the following dates and call with your
reservation as soon as possible to ensure a seat.
