Thanks Keymaster; it's an ugly duckling, but I'm proud of it anyway because I typically have the black thumbs of construction incompetence

Great job and great looking pizzas!

One way to try to convince yourself to go ahead with one is that it might cost a couple of thousand to build it, but it would probably be worth 20 thousand in a selling price

WOW!!!!

Talk about hitting the"hot button" for a lot of us here ...I have been getting my wife warmed up to the idea of the pizza oven in my deck expansion......

Very nice job! I have seen some covered in tiles, and some in stucco, or bricks. Are you considering anything to top it off with - or leave it natural?

t if you build it we will come!
Ill come next year & cook with U next year if you build it

Wow on many levels starting with the view.

Many thanks for posting very enjoyable.

Thanks guys; I'm really excited about the wood fired oven because it is such a simple device (nothing but a masonry cave that captures and retains heat), with very little to break down.  Other than cooking over an open fire, it doesn't get any simpler, and I'd recommend the experience highly to anyone that enjoys being in the outdoors while cooking and visiting with friends.

I want one. Got a good view and I think the oven would be perfect. Love me some pizza and that bread looked killer.

... that bread looked killer.

If you like true European thick crusty bread, then this is the method.  Check out this video for the method we used.  This young man is evidently a baker in the UK

Awesome! The wife looked at it and immediately told me to have one built, except she said it needs to be quite a bit bigger as I'll be living in it. :'(

She'll be sold once she tastes those crispy savory treats!
