MPCC Imperial Campus to offer class on meat smoking

A new class offered by the Mid-Plains Community College Imperial Campus will explain how to use a smoker to make amazing tasting food.

Those who attend the class will learn how to smoke a variety of dishes and meats, including poultry, brisket and pork shoulder. They will also learn about seasoning, hot smoking versus cold smoking and will receive a booklet of tips, seasonings and recipes.

An emphasis will be put on using a charcoal grill/smoker but electric versions will also be discussed.

Samples of cold smoked cheeses and hot smoked meat will be brought in for examples and taste testing.

Alex Gebert will teach the class, which is scheduled for 4-6 p.m. Nov. 6 at the campus.

The cost is $25. Those interested in registering can do so online at: bceregister.mpcc.edu, by calling (308) 882-5972 or by emailing ledallb@mpcc.edu.
