Junior Chefs 3-Day Camp: Kids Cook Across America 
Bruce Campbell

Class Description:
Once you register your young chefs (ages 9-14) for this interactive 3-Day cooking camp, you’ll be able to relax knowing they’ll be well educated and have fun on our culinary trip across America!  Experienced instructor, Bruce Campbell, will lead these informative cooking classes where kids can travel across the country (figuratively speaking, of course) as they learn to cook 3 uniquely different regional cuisines - New Orleans Cajun & Creole, a taste of Hawaii, and some finger lickin’ Kansas City Barbecue favorites. Plus, Bruce is an award-winning BBQ competitor and he’s set aside one day to share some of his grilling knowledge with the kids and lay the foundation for the art of grilling and BBQ local specialties found right here our neck of the woods. And here’s the bonus … they will have the recipes and the know how to DO ALL OF THIS AGAIN at home!  Whoa…you say?  Well, relax because it’s true. A super fun summer camp experience that will teach culinary skills kids will use for the rest of their lives. (Tasting) HANDS ON

Day #1: Southern Cooking: Today we study FLAVOR!  We'll start with seasonings and how to mix them.  The kids will take home their very own customized seasoning mix.  Then we'll dig deep into the Cajun/Creole world of New Orleans with Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya, Shrimp Po-Boy Sammies and we'll even make the iconic Bread Pudding With a Sweet Butter Sauce.  Ooo La Wee!  Some kinda fun in the kitchens today.

Day #2: Pacific Island Cuisine: I don't know what will be more fun...cooking foods like Huli Huli Chicken or saying the recipe name!  The kids will learn how to work with the ingredients indigenous to Hawaii and other Pacific Islands.  There will even be a kid-friendly drink that features pineapple!  Aloha kakahiaka Junior Chefs & a fun cooking session!

Day #3: KC BBQ Styles: Kids in Kansas City don't know what it's like to NOT have choices when it comes to fantastic BBQ foods right?  It's an absolute MUST that they carry on the local traditions to the next generation.  Today it's about grilling fundamentals, How to make BBQ Rubs and BBQ Sauces and of course how to grill meats, vegetables and even dessert!  Clear a shelf at home for all the competition BBQ awards that these kids will mop up as they grow up! Long live BBQ!
