Linked In: Sausage Making 101
Highly recommend! We had a blast at this sausage-making class in Chelsea Market. Even though it wasn't a private event, the group was small enough that we got consistent hands-on experience from start to finish. Having two instructors was great—they were helpful and kept things moving. Plus, you get to take home a ton of the sausages you actually made! They also provided a delicious charcuterie board from their butcher, along with beer, wine, and water. A fun, yummy, and very worth-it experience! -

Very informative teachers. Wish the class sizes were a little smaller, ended up having to share our station with another couple but it was fine. Made a lot of sausage and cooked it at home. They were delicious! -
