Wood fired pizza
Baking Pizza in a Round Boy Oven
I asked Karl to fire up a Round Boy Oven so we can show you some pictures of the oven being used. I also asked him for some tips or tricks he could offer on using the oven. Karl gave me three tips as he told me "There is nothing to making pizza in the oven. It is simple.".
Tip # 1 get the oven roof to white hot.
Tip # 2 Keep the fire to one side so you can turn the pizza to cook evenly.
Tip # 3 Lift the pizza with the peel as if to check the underneath to see if it is done, if the pizza bends in the center it needs more time. When it is done it will be crisp and it will not bend in the center.
Well it is easy! Here are the pictures of the oven baking pizza.
The pizza was delicious!

The oven is designed by my husband. He is a 5th generation mason. We sell the oven on ebay. It is listed as
