My Portable Oven

[Ev]

I'm sure many of you have seen this oven here before, but I know we all like photos so I thought I'd share some from the graduation party I cooked for last weekend. Altogether, I baked 23 14 inch pies over about 4 hours time. The dough was a basic Lehmann N.Y. style, 60% hy. using KASL. The oven was running right around 575-600 on the bricks.

Steve,

Those are some great looking pizzas. I assume that the woman in the photo shown loading a pizza is your daughter .

I love that setup!  Thanks for sharing.

From looking at the pictures closely, I believe you have an SP10-type gas heat source on the underside and wood-fired backside.

Peter, you always know just what to say! You are going to make her day.

Yep. Typical low pressure turkey fryer burner.

That's cool. How did you get that shape cast.

Steve,

Great looking pies on your portable oven!  I am always fascinated how talented and handy you are in designing ovens.  Your lovely wife is going to love Peter’s comment.

Great job with your portable oven and pies!

That's cool. How did you get that shape cast.

It's not cast. The riser is made from 6" 20 ga. flat stock. The top is the original grill top. Both have a covering of 1/2 inch mesh hardware cloth(metal wire) and a coating of perl-crete. There are also 5 fire-brick "splits" mounted under the dome.
