An important point to consider when using wood in an outdoor oven is that it is essential for many reasons that only dry hardwood is used when firing your oven. If softwood or pines are used - it will smoke and the oven will not reach temperature. A hardwood of less than 20% moisture content will allow your oven to heat up correctly, offer more heat for a longer period and essentially burn almost smoke free - but still ensure your food has a lovely wood fired taste to it!
It is not difficult to use a wood fired outdoor oven - but it is very rewarding. The pleasure you will see when your family, friends and guest tuck into their first wood fired pizza - eaten within seconds of taking it out of your oven, is very special - it will be the talking point for the whole summer. You can also use your outdoor oven to heat up your outdoor area or create a romantic ambience when spending warm evenings in the garden with your partner. Log fires and fire pits have become increasingly popular in recent years and your outdoor wood fired oven can also be used for this purpose.
