Open Fire Workshop With Chef Ben Ford, Son of Harrison Ford
Cuisine U is proud to officially announce our Live Fire Canon on October 19th at The Boca Raton featuring Chef Ben Ford — chef, restaurateur, author of Taming The Feast, and son of Harrison Ford.
This is not a standard grilling class.
This is a full working session inside the live-fire canon focused on:
Live-fire execution and heat management
Building custom fire pits for proper airflow and multi-zone cooking
Wood selection, burn characteristics, and flavor development
Managing fire throughout the cooking process
Open-fire cooking techniques for proteins, vegetables, fruits, and breads
Understanding cuts, fat content, timing, and temperature control
Chef Ford’s background includes working alongside some of the most respected names in modern culinary history including Francis Mallmann, Alice Waters, Nancy Silverton, Mark Peel, and others. His experience bridges restaurant execution, fire craft, butchery, design, and large-format open-fire cooking. Chef Ford is recognized as one of America’s leading authorities in live-fire cooking.
