Wood Fire Brick Oven (1 Viewer)

[TRAIL TAILOR]

I will have to order in some fire bricks for my new forge and am thinking about building a brick oven. Anyone have one of these and if so any suggestions/comments?.. I've always thought one wood (get it, HA!) be nice next to the grill and smoker.

Don't have one...but want!

The one pictured is HUGE.. I want one that is around 3' diameter or less.. throw a pizza or two in and then have it for roasted duck, turkey and chickens etc... as well.

Several free online PDFs going over a materials list and step by step builds.

You've probably seen/checked out the pizza ovens from Portugal...seem, at least on paper , to be a decent value. Might sponsor some ideas for a 'create your own'...

I have a carport on the side of the shop that I want to turn into an outdoor kitchen if we decide to stay in WY. I have enough matching stone from the house and shop to make a bar/island etc.. and then I want to pour a concrete top in place for eating and cooking..

So I need some time, wood for all the cabinetry, fire brick and mortar/concrete..

This is what I am envisioning on a 13' x 25' scale though.

You're gonna need more than pine to fuel that baby

Mine will be 1/4 scale compared to that monster...

One of the best books I read about brick ovens:

Search also for "masonry heater". The folks that make kits for those often offer kits for brick ovens - plus many masonry heaters have an oven built in.
