Program Brief:
This is a hands-on-workshop, and you get to eat the food when you are done. You will work in groups of two with each group preparing a different dish from bread, entries to desert. You will learn the safety, basic science, and techniques of outdoor cooking using cast-iron Dutch Oven with charcoal or wood. You will also learn the proper handling and upkeep of the oven. To top the culinary experience, you get to partake a wine-tasking session provided by the workshop host, Sparks Vineyard & Winery.
You will apply the working knowledge acquired in the workshop to prepare delicious meals. Enjoy them around the campfire at outback excursions, or at home on holiday tables shared with family and friends.
Five members of the Oklahoma Water Color Association held a Paint-In session at our winery on Thursday June 24. Old man weather graciously opened the day with bright sunshine and a gentle breeze, making it a beautiful day for the creative juice to flow. The artists were hard at work after choosing a scenic spot to set up their easels. Lunch was enjoyed at the winery front veranda with a glass of wine. We all had a great time!
