Starting the wood fired Mugnaini (Forni Valoriani) oven in the Sour Street Pizza food truck

Starting the oven in the Sour Street Pizza trailer. We will show you start to finish how to get a wood fired pizza oven hot before an event. Cleaning the oven, starting the fire, building a perimeter fire, and eventually getting the oven ready to go to make some fire sourdough pizzas.

I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I'm opening my own Wood Fired Pizza trailer in Bend, Or in a couple months, and stoked I found your channel.

How did you go about the whole opening process... im super interested in doing the same, but am weary of the risk involved... congrats to you for taking the challenge

[@cristian_munoz]

Wood ash is an inexpensive way to provide your plants with both potassium and lime. When added to compost, wood ash provides micronutrients such as potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur, iron, manganese, zinc, and boron.

If you don’t mind me asking, how much was the oven to be installed and all?

[@tonymusolino2369]

Very informative. Great content. I see you know a thing or two about your fire…😉

[@cjeccher8128]

I put the fire starters under the first pile but looks like adding them to the top works too

Hi nice trailer, i'm looking to have a simular one built. Does it get very hot inside the trailer? Does AC work to cool it off? Thanks

[@sourstreetpizza6015]

In the summer it is BRUTAL. We have an AC that pumps and helps the topper and shaper but the person at the register/oven is cooking.

Just got done firing up by oven for the first time today. I spread the coals out as you said. I’m kind of wary about whether I should leave the chimney flue open or closed. I feel like if I close it, it’ll cut off the oxygen and the coals will die faster but then I’m concerned about smoke if it ends up igniting back up. Do you leave your chimney flue open or closed when you’re done?

[@johnathansawyer8736]

Thank you so much for this vid! I just finished building an oven in the back yard. Two questions: Did you put anything on the mushrooms (oil, salt) or just the mushroom? AND How seasoned is your wood? Is it kiln dried or just stored for a year or so? Thanks again

[@sourstreetpizza6015]

Congrats on the oven! So we just cook the water out of the mushrooms. Theirs enough salt in the cheese and tomato sauce so seasoning isn’t necessary IMO. And we just switched from “seasoned” wood to kiln dried and it is leaps and bounds better. Also double the cost but you gotta pay to play. Cheers!

[@johnathansawyer8736]

@@sourstreetpizza6015 Thank you so much! Can't wait to try the mushrooms and now I want some kiln dried wood.

[@watchstore320]

When it’s time to close - what do you do or use to put out the fire before driving off?

[@sourstreetpizza6015]

We normally just close the oven up and spread the coals out a bit. It dies down some when we are cleaning up.
