About this Event

Comfort food done right—crispy, creamy, and soul-satisfying.

Get ready for an evening filled with bold flavors and warm hospitality in our Southern Cooking Class! This hands-on experience is all about learning to create classic comfort food from scratch in a fun and relaxed kitchen setting.

Whether you’re craving golden fried chicken, gooey mac and cheese, or slow-simmered greens, you’ll leave with the skills—and recipes—to bring the South to your own table.

Here’s whats on the menu:

  • Southern Fried Chicken
  • Mac & Cheese
  • Collard Greens

You’ll cook with our chef in our welcoming Rockford kitchen, learning techniques, tips, and flavor-building tricks that make these Southern classics truly unforgettable. It’s a class filled with warmth, fun, and big-hearted cooking.

Whether you’re a Southern food lover, new to the kitchen, or looking for a unique date night or outing, this class is a great way to connect, cook, and enjoy a hearty, delicious meal.

Allergen modifications for the cooking class are available when timely notice is given. Please fill out the checkout questionnaire, or email [email protected] at least one week prior to the cooking class with notes.
