Here's a great opportunity to win a place at the first-ever Barbrix cooking class with chef Don Dickman, featuring Autumn Pasta.
On Oct. 17, he'll do Italian Seafood, and Nov. 14 will be Thanksgiving-themed with Turkey 101.
The first Barbrix class is Saturday, Sept. 26 from 9-12, and here's what you'll learn to cook:
