Sausage masterclass in the rustic Pavilion at Bungala House, Normanville.
Group of 8 or more? Bring sausage making to your venue.
Sausage making is the class that always ends with the loudest laughter. The bench is set with sausage casings, three styles of seasoning, and chilled pork from South Australian. You learn the grind, the mix, the case, and the link. By lunchtime you have three batches of sausage and a story about your first link.
Bungala House in Yankalilla is the main venue, where the post-class lunch on the homestead lawn has become a small Saturday institution. Milang and Jackson Square run the same class in different settings.
What you cook changes through the year with the seasons. Below is what is currently on the bench. The booking page for each date confirms the exact dishes.
A Fleurieu blend developed with our master butcher. Not a chorizo. Our own house flavour, made on the bench.

Clear instructions, help when needed, questions answered and recipes that can be repeated at home in quantities suitable for 1-2 people and easily scaled up.Posted on Google Julie FoxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fun afternoon making our dumplings! Creating the filling and playing with flavours to make the sauce was really interesting. Jackie also did a cooking demo so we can cook ours with confidence. Thanks guys, a great class.Posted on Google Sonia XuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience! Really enjoyed the sausage making!Posted on Google Linda VinallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience making mozzarella cheese from scratch. Given as a gift but would have happily paid to participate. Bonus making butter by hand & partnered with Gin tastings from Cut Hill Distillery. Jackie, John (x2) and Robin were gracious in their instruction & assistance. Looking forward to trying out some more recipes and experiences of Fleurieu Food & Wine.Posted on Google deborah meagherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with wonderful hostsPosted on Google Tania WasintykTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great day at the Cut Hill Wall Distillery for the Mozzarella Making experience. Lots of fun and as well as making mozzarella, practical tips for when you try again at home. Jackie and her team were great, very helpful and they all enjoyed a laugh.Posted on Google Wendy Eva-ScottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding experience. Thank you Jackie and John. We loved the Mozzarella class and the butter bonus !Posted on Google Chris StewartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A lovely fun experience. Jacqui and John made us and all guests welcome from the time we arrived. A welcome drink was appreciated and delicious. The setup of tools and ingredients was well organised and everything was very relaxed and casual … whilst still getting clear instructions and lots of support once you started making the mozeralla. Stretch don’t squeeze!!! Jacqui really knows her stuff and shared lots of helpful insights and skills. The gin tasting was a bonus and we also got to make some butter. You get to take home the cheese, butter and whey. All in all a lovely day and recommend as something a bit fun and different! Bravo!
