I love to cook great food and living in New Orleans my culinary skills have improved. A popular (and delicious) local dish bbq shrimp has become a specialty of mine. I purchase large fresh shrimp a few hours off the boats from a supplier to the finest restaurants in the French Quarter. I have perfected my own recipe for this dish and have made this for as many as 17 people at a time (many of them serious foodies and chefs). Everyone has said my preparation of this uniquely New Orleans dish is better than the restaurants that claim to have invented it. I have subsequently taught many friends, and Airbnb guests hands on how to prepare this delicious meal.

Jack will prepare you some big shrimp fresh right out of the Gulf of Mexico. You’ll get a taste of southern Louisiana style cooking that you can make yourself when you get back home. I opted to stay at Jacks house through air bnb which was convenient, the neighborhood is great, and Jack is a great host. It’s a can’t miss New Orleans experience you won’t get anywhere else.

Best shrimps in town - or ever! Jack’s cooking class is definitely an highlight of our New Orleans trip. He uses fresh caught shrimps as the ingredients and use Cajun oriented methods to cook them. We loved them so much and we finished 7 ponds of shrimps in a short moment lol. Jack also holds a porch concert when we were visiting and the music couldn’t be better. Besides the class and food he is also an awesome host with great tips for local restaurants and attractions. Next time when we are back we will try more of his tours and probably book his beautiful places as well :)
