Building A Pizza Oven: And So It Begins

Pretty exciting picture, huh? Well, it is to me. 73 x 86 inches of love in which I will be planting our wood fired pizza oven. Pretty exciting. We have been hatching a plan since last year and have finally narrowed it down to a couple solid designs.

This looks pretty simple. What could go wrong? If nothing else, I will end up with an above ground atomic bunker capable of making fresh baked bread!

I’m leaning towards an oven design by Forno Bravo. They are a California based company that imports Italian clay pizza oven domes along with related supplies. They have a detailed set of free plans available for download. When I say ‘detailed’, I mean 76 pages worth of granular description, schematics and color photography. This should be a hoot.

  1. Are you crazy! this is a project you’re supposed to do in winter… you’re going to do manual labour, in Austin … IN SUMMER?!?!?!

    Mind you, for a wood fired pizza/bread oven … I guess I’d probably do the same.

  2. That would be badass if you built that thing! Work in the mornings only. Stop by 11am. Then cook & write.
