Žar akademija

Real grilling is not just a way of preparing food – it is knowledge, passion and experience. The Žar akademija at Kope is for everyone who wants to discover the secrets of preparing excellent dishes over an open fire and take their grilling skills to a higher level.

In the relaxed setting of Pohorje nature, guided by experienced grill masters, you enter a world of different grilling techniques, the preparation of quality meat, the choice of the right ingredients and the creation of flavors that make the grill far more than a summer get-together.

A good result begins long before the meat goes on the hot grate. At the Žar akademija you get to know the whole process – from selecting quality cuts of meat and preparing them properly to seasoning, marinating, controlling the temperature and the various methods of grilling.

We pay particular attention to the techniques that draw the best out of quality ingredients: direct and indirect grilling, slow cooking of meat, proper resting, and creating a perfect crust with a juicy interior.

The knowledge you gain is not just for professionals. The academy is designed so that you can later use many of the tricks and techniques on your own grill at home.

The Žar akademija is not a classic cooking workshop. It is a gathering around the fire where cuisine, good energy and new knowledge come together.

Participants take an active part in preparing the dishes, learn different techniques and, of course, taste what they have made. It is precisely the relaxed atmosphere and creating together around the grill that make the academy a special culinary experience at Kope.

The Žar akademija is also an excellent choice for team building, private parties, celebrations and business gatherings.

Preparing food together encourages cooperation and creates an experience quite different from a classic business event. We can adapt the program to the size of the group, the participants' prior knowledge and the client's wishes, and combine it with other activities and experiences at Kope.

Light the fire. Learn the secrets of the grill. Create something excellent.

Žar akademija Kope – where knowledge, fire and good company meet around the same grill.
