Your hosts, tutors and entertainers at Smoky Jo's are Jo Hampson and Georgina Perkins. Previous owners of the renowned Old Smokehouse when it was based at Brougham Hall, Penrith, they built up the business and when they sold it their customers included Fortnum and Mason, Harvey Nichols and the multi-award-winning Westmorland farm shops.  They also smoked privately for HRH Prince Charles.

Who better to take you through the hints and tips to creating and enjoying smoked food recipes at home?

In 2006 “Smoky Jo's” was born - running courses in Shap for people wanting to smoke food; Jo and Georgina regularly give chef's demos, they have been the expertise behind a number of new artisan smokeries have appeared on TV and radio and are authors of a book - now in itssecond edition - on the subject “Smoking Food at Home with Smoky Jo.” (Available in our shop and from Amazon.)

These days there are an enormous variety of home smokers available to buy - but you don't need to spend a lot of money to enjoy smoking food at home. Jo and George may have run one of the best smokehouses in the UK but now they smoke on a variety of home smokers - anything from a wardrobe or a biscuit tin to a BBQ - not to mention their best friend Freddie!
