Picture of the Day – April 28, 2012
I used a fisheye lens on my iPhone to get these shots as I fired up my mud oven…
Sure I should have known better, especially since my finger tips were beginning to burn.
Then again, it you read my previous post then you know how hot it gets, so what was I thinking?
At least I managed to get the screen shot before it shut down.

838 degrees fahrenheit! Now that’s hot, but it’s not hot enough. Whenever I want to fire up my mud oven I’ll crank it up past a 1000 degrees. It takes about three hours for the oven to get nice and saturated with heat. Once the coals are brushed aside, the floor of the oven will be about 750 and once it drops down to 650 I’ll start tossing in pizzas. At this temperature I can crank out a thin crust pizza in 90 seconds; I kid you not. Once you start eating pizza from a wood fired oven, you’ll never want to go back.
