Jamie FoyGrill Academy™ Assistant Manager
Jamie is the Grill Academy™ Assistant Manager, and joined Weber® in September 2010 from a Partner Store in the Isle of Man, gaining first-hand experience on the shop floor selling Weber® products. Running a professional kitchen in Sweden for 18 months and attended catering collage for three years, Jamie adds great value to the Grill Academy™ team.
Jamie is passionate about food and loves to be inventive. The draw of working at the Grill Academy™ was to be part of a team of 4, out of 63 million people in the country working at the UK’s only dedicated barbecue cooking school.
Jamie’s most extreme cooking experience comes from being caught in the large wake of a fast craft on the Irish Sea. He found himself barbecuing freshly line caught herring on a small fishing boat! -

Dan is one of the Weber® Experience roadshow chefs and joined Weber® in 2011 after five years running his own outside catering business, so he is prepared for the weather conditions he may face!
Looking for a new challenge Dan joined the Weber team as he gets a ‘buzz out of meeting new people’ and has a passion for cookery. Dan has enjoyed his Weber® Experience tour so far, in particular Cork, Ireland where many of his family holidays were spent as a child.
Dan enjoys cooking unusual cuts of meat such as row deer and experimenting with wood smoke on the barbecue. When Dan is not on the road on having a well-deserved break, he can be found helping out at the Grill Academy™.
