Moonhead Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Hi I'm Rick from Chester-le-Street. Always loved cooking on the bbq and having moved over from the CWS Facebook group I'm really looking forward to this forum. I have an old Outback kettle, badly in need of replacement as it has a fist sized hole in the base, but after over 10 years of action can't really complain. Also a small Fox smoker - that's the make not the Ginger beastie! That would be wrong? Another excuse to play with fire is the Barrel pizza oven I built and posted on the ukwoodfiredovenforum 4 years ago which is how I found the CWS group in the first place. Also excellent for a low slow cook. I built that with a space for a BBQ, so now the Outbacks seen better days I'm looking for something to fit in. Cheers for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 HI Rick, welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have plenty of fun with your cookers. Would like to see photos of your Barrel Pizza Oven. Always up for a build project. I have built a Beer Keg Tandoor, Beer Keg Rôtisserie, plus numerous Gas Bottle Builds, including the Smokin Monkey Smoking Pig UDS and my my go to Smoker, Table Top Gravity Feed Smoker.

Moonhead Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Thanks for the welcome. Like the creativity with the smokers. Here's the wood oven, internally about 650mm x 900mm. Gets a lot of use mainly for pizza and bread. The space to the right will be home for the BBQ when it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Great looking oven How long does it take to warm up before you start cooking the pizzas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 That's a good size pizza oven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonhead Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 It's around one and a half hours depending on time of year. Best to keep burning a small load every now and then over the winter to keep the moisture levels down. Just got to watch the eyebrows - singed a few of them over time.
