DIY Outdoor Pizza Oven In 5 Minutes

[@BrianShelburne]

Couple of easy suggestions: Rotate the opening in the firebox to one side so you don't have to reach over the fire to get to the opening. Metal fire tray so you can start the fire then slide it back deeper into the firebox.

[@ws4860]

Very good idea!

[@alexhutchins6161]

You know.... that seems so obvious that I wonder why it hasn't been done.

[@bbsal4031]

Yes that sounds good. I did look on Amazon and they have some long handled Pizza peels !

[@MuayThaiTherapy]

There are smart people on KZbin.

[@patrickstallings9613]

how about a pic of the firebox on the side? trying to visualize it

[@RaleighSmoke]

The exploding pizza oven animation was hysterical. I too wondered if it was safe. Not just for the exploding concrete, but also if it’s actually “food safe”. It may not matter since the pizza is not on there very long…. Thanks for sharing!

I'm pretty sure 450 🔥degrees is going to kill any bacteria that DeetZa may come in contact with...

I love the comedy of errors throughout this video with the genuine & sincere banter throughout. You are somebody I’d definitely be friends with as your silliness is inline with mine. Cool video and will definitely give it a try. Cheers and God bless 🙏🏼🍕🇺🇸

[@shaker3459]

I laughed out loud at the lighter. 😂 Such an easy and rewarding project! Great job Haxman!

[@TheShrubRemovalGuy]

Yes the lighter thing was funny.

[@bobbyb7112]

Seriously, the comedy on your channel is what drew me in. The part with the ferro rod and the gas lighter had me in stiches. New subscriber to your channel, really enjoying it and love the way you bring a family friendy atmosphere which sets you apart from other channels.

[@musicteacher5757]

Backing up what you said: Did you know that a sense of humor is a sign of intelligence? You have a sense of humor and so does Haxman!

[@Cockeyed_Den8213]

I helped a friend build a Pizza oven once and he had the fire open to the back and the door to the front I asked him about why he did it that way he said because he wanted to. Now I know why he did that. Only took like 20 years but thank you for pointing that out for me. Enjoy your Pizza and you all take care stay safe.

[@HAXMAN]

Secrets revealed. 😁 Thanks, you too!

[@braddorcas9363]

I was about to comment this. Should have made the opening for the fire in the back. Otherwise your hands and knees are getting barbequed trying to interact with where you put the pizza.

[@braddorcas9363]

I'd suggest investing in one of the smaller rd metal peels with the longer handle. Use the wood one you already have to initially put it in. But the smaller metal peels are perfect for when the crust becomes more rigid with some heat to start rotating the pizza every 20-30 seconds for even heat on it. Also easier to pull the finished pie out with them.

[@robertborden2666]

One 180 degree turn halfway in is enough rotation to even out the cooking.

[@ianlui8144]

After the last two or so years of doommongering it's great to listen to someone with a sense of humour, and happy disposition, lucky family!!! Good luck to you all!

[@toddshook1765]

First, I have seen many Barbecue pits made with cinder blocks so it seem to work good. Second, thanks for showing all ups and downs while constructing your projects; keeps it real because that is exactly what happens when we men build stuff. And thanks for the comedy relief. Gotta a laugh.

[@lynnefreeman7687]

I’m so going out to make my pizza oven this weekend!!! Yes yes yes Thank you!!! My grand kids and I are going to enjoy this hack!!!!

[@mastiffmom2592]

I hope you did! Your Grands would have a blast… Well, maybe not quite like the one here but ya know. 💥

[@wildthoughts6959]

You put a smile on my face watching you constructing it , and then cooking with the family. Great video .

[@nathan7673]

I love the realistic struggle you have wih your projects. Most KZbinrs don't show it.

[@HAXMAN]

Thanks. I figure if you make it look easy and then people have problems they wonder what they did wrong. I’d rather look like an idiot. 😂

[@slick8086]

@@HAXMAN Maybe you're over doing that last part a little bit. The proper way to use a ferro rod is to hold down your fluff with the end of the rod, then your strikes will go right where they are supposed to.

[@mhardani22]

Literally lol’ing when you were getting the first pizza out 😂😂 Great work, Luigi!

[@HAXMAN]

😂 Thanks!

[@mastiffmom2592]

Right?! LOL That sucker went ALL the way back then he came with the toy shovel. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@MA-mh1vs]

This is right up my alley, it will match my brick grill, brick rocket stove and washing machine tub burn pit on cinder blocks. I think I will put this oven on some cinder blocks to just bring it up higher and rotate the opening so I am not reaching over the fire.

[@SKPhoto816]

A couple things to help out: When using a Ferro rod, hold your knife steady and draw the rod, it is much easier to control. Invest in a long handled metal pizza peel, or use welders gloves with the peel you have. Although it is a lot of work building a cob oven is a great time and activity with kids. Keep up the great videos!

[@HAXMAN]

Thanks for the tips!

I ERUPTED in laughter when you said “it’s too hot, back up” and the explosion edits started going off. 😂😂😂😂

[@zzcooldude]

Belly Button lint KILLED me lol

[@Alexbolton1]

I think to help the top get caramelised you could start a fire on the top paver too, so it heats from the top and bottom

[@Oklahoman-in6ph]

Good channel Haxman Your goood

[@jaxn54]

First time watching you video You remind me a lot of my dad when I would help him in the shed But he only had boys and would get mad at us for holding the flash light wrong lol Always fun helping him though Very nice place too. I can tell you have done many thing to improve your house My dad and I turned a lake house at the ozarks into a 8 bed room house We turned the garage into 3 bed rooms and built a shed in the front (the back is the lake lol) and a tornado shelter in the basement into a loft with a bed on top and bottom Overall great video and glad I can subscribe

[@davidlopata7532]

Turn the paves on the side

[@billw7242]

Works much better with 24" pavers but loving how you made the 20s work 👍. Safety glasses.... Laughed so hard

[@HAXMAN]

🤓

[@Dalilanotdelilah]

Yes!! I got all those supplies in the backyard now!

[@kdawgmcknight]

To all the people saying rotate the opening, this design would lend itself to perfect, even convection. If the flames bother you a simple door made from a brick or plate metal would create a temporary heat shield. Also grafting longer handles to pizza peels are simple affairs depending on how ghetto you want them to look. I.E. a hose clamp or two and a broom handle.

[@TacoTuesday4]

For an excellent pizza look up 72 hour pizza dough by baking steel. Then instead of using a corn meal to keep the dough from sticking, use semolina flour.

[@jamesfwpurdyx]

"You OK? Si!" 😂😂😂 I haven't built or will probably ever make any of your projects but find your videos entertaining. I really enjoy your accents especially 🇬🇧. From the UK

[@raymondrodriguez5068]

Hooray! The pizza didn't burnt.😄

[@Gastly_Ghost]

Hey man another tip about bugs mostly black flies that circle your head all day out in the field. Stick a couple dryer sheets in your hat they don’t like it. I use snuggle.

[@thomasschafer7268]

Better use a steel slider for the pizza. And use semola between the pizza and the slider. Very easy 👍👍🤤🤤🇩🇪

[@georgea.9684]

Who knew John C Reilly was that handy around the house?

[@specfever2]

If you want to avoid burning your hand, rotate the top part 90 degrees so that the opening for your pizza is not over the fire opening...

I’ve seen this on KZbin, so many cool and different designs, this is a great video, i like that u can make something for a good price and not go and spend the big bucks on. Something like already prepaid pizza ovens, the key to pizza i was told was making sure to have a good high heat to cook the pizza fast, ad hey, who doesn’t love pizza. Another great video, have a great weekend my friends.

[@pedrotenn2007]

You are so funny! Loved the edit with the explosions 😂😂😂 pizza looked delicious

[@JonHallMusic96]

To anyone thinking of doing this- fucking do it. I’ve done it copying this almost to a the letter and it’s amazing. Make sure there is a big enough opening for flames to come over the top of the pizza and put the fire opening on the side rather than the front as mentioned elsewhere in the comments! Works really well and cooks super super fast. It did however crack the middle slab for me so unsure what to buy that won’t crack but it’s incredible!

[@christopherm9353]

Love watching your videos. They always crack me up 😂 Keep them coming!

[@cartern4836]

LOL "It says it's too hot, back up"

[@jaji9678]

I built a pizza oven out of concrete polymer vermiculite and white lava stone, wire reinforced. I broke it in with small fires, eventually it got over 800 degree and will cook a pizza in 4 minutes. One crack like any earthen, Cobb oven, I've used it seven times and no explosion. I can see how that could be an issue, the water in the Crete has to be coaxed out before heavy firing.

[@pitol678]

Great video, I laughed out loud a few times 😂. “Now that the roof of my mouth is gone, I think I’ll have a bowl of fruit loops…” 🤣

Excelent Job Haxman !! Thanks for share !!!

[@strorandompage]

Love to interview you too get ideas on building my home and how to utilize space

[@lovelyladyanna3387]

Wonderful video and helpful step by step instructions. I would like to suggest , make your opening for the oven part in a different direction ( like a 1/4 of a turn type of design). Then the flames are not facing directly towards you. This will prevent the heat from coming at you and be a safer alternative to cooking pizza. Also hopefully this would work, maybe get a type of steel mesh racks (non toxic metal and heat resistance) to stabilize the bricks and then placing pavers on top? That way bricks will stay in place evenly and gain more length on the sides? Thank you sharing. Take care. 👋 😁

[@TheOriginalFreak]

Fero Rod: Push rod down onto tinder, against the ground, so it does not move when you run back of knife over it. This a) conserves your muscle energy from being wasted on motion (of the fero rod wobbling in your hand), and instead go into friction energy against the rod, generating an igniting spark that is larger, hotter, and lasts longer. and b) focuses the sparks down and into the tinder instead of spraying all over. or just stick to lighters, no ones pulled out a ruler yet.

[@HAXMAN]

Thanks for the advice 👍

[@robking2145]

Concrete will crack or break under heat if you don’t vibrate or tap the air bubbles out of it if you make them yourself tap your shutters lots to get as much air out as possible
