This week we had our first pizza party with some friends. The Kruis and Dunlap families came over and experienced the oven in all it's glory. I started the fire around 3:15pm and we started cooking around 5.45. The wood that I got from a friend of mine (acacia and walnut) burned plenty hot. The pizzas cooked in 3-7min (depending on how much fire I had going in there) and I think everyone enjoyed the process and the food.
After the pizza was cooked we did another round of bread baking. We did 3 artisan loaves and 3 baguettes. They turned out beautifully. I'm still amazed every time I use the oven and it cooks the food and doesn't crumble. I guess it is a testament to the directions I used.
