First pizzas from the drum oven this weekend!
The pizza bread is made from home bake, gluten free mix and needed to be toasted lightly on top to allow the toppings to be spread on.
still a bit smokey
I re-sealed the flue with more fire cement where the first attempt had failed due to getting too wet before curing, then oven was lit and the fire let burn for a short time. Once it was steady, but still a little smokey, the first pizza went in. Garlic and cheese thick base.
It came out perfectly! Yum.
Cheese & Garlic, the first pizza
The next two worked well, although I nearly burnt the bottom of the big one. Would a pizza stone or fire brick help to distribute the direct heat from the fire box? Probably.
Ready to eat?
Good fun and tasty pizzas.
family feast!
Then a big log on the fire and sit down to watch the bush telly.
big log makes good viewing
