At The Ultimate BBQ Dinner Party, you’ll learn how to create a stunning three-course meal that requires minimal last-minute cooking, allowing you to relax and enjoy the evening alongside your guests.
This isn’t just a cooking class—it’s a masterclass in effortless entertaining, inspired by the celebrated chef Simon Gault. Gain the confidence and skills to host a memorable dinner party with ease.
🍅 Starter: Tomato Tartare Elegance
Begin the evening by crafting a sophisticated Tomato Tartare paired with creamy Buffalo Mozzarella.

This impressive starter can be prepared entirely in advance, so you can greet your guests without the stress of last-minute tasks.
🐟 Main Course: Prep-Ahead BBQ-Baked Akaroa Salmon
Unlock the secrets to preparing Whole Akaroa Salmon Fillets that are BBQ baked in newspaper, resulting in perfectly cooked, self-saucing salmon that’s moist and flavourful. This unique method allows you to assemble the dish ahead of time, so all that’s left is to place it on the BBQ or in the oven as your guests arrive.
Your main course is accompanied by an array of delectable sides, all designed for advance preparation:
- Carrots in a Rosé Balsamic & Chive Sauce: Tender carrots glazed with a delicate rosé balsamic reduction and sprinkled with fresh chives.
- Lemon Parmesan Asparagus: Crisp asparagus spears cooked to perfection, finished with a zest of lemon and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

- Green Salad with Toasted Pinoli Nuts and Pomegranate Dressing: A fresh and vibrant salad adding a burst of colour and nutrition to your plate.
