Welcome to the Cooking School presented by Chef Marc Sleeckx
Here at All Hoofed Up Ranch we want to bring our guests a fun filled day. How does this sound? You come and go trail riding on a smooth and beautiful Tennessee Walker for an hour, enjoying all serenity that the country brings, but having the adventure that will release your inner child. The stresses of everyday life just fade away.
After riding, you get to join Marc Sleeckx, gourmet chef, for a cooking class where you may learn to make Coq Au Vin, Beef Wellington, homemade bisques, creme brulee and the list is endless of choices that Marc could surprise you with. You eat what you make and we could even top the day off with a wine education class/tasting. Marc's expertise with wine brings something for everyone. Come to the country, but be ready to be treated like royalty.
Many different packages available. Call for pricing.
