I purchased an outdoor wood fired pizza oven a few months back and have been trying all kinds of food on it. Your videos have been the best for both information and just plain enjoyment. The relaxed manner by which you cook, film etc. is truly wonderful. Please keep the videos coming. Respectfully, Dom Silla

I found your channel because I’m getting my wood fired oven in about 2 weeks. I didn’t realise you’d inspire me as much as you have. Your videos on the tools and equipment through to videos like this just amaze me. I didn’t realise how much of an art this style of cooking is. I’m so excited! Thank you 😊

[@TheWoodFiredOvenChef]

Great to hear about your oven. I look forward to hearing about you cooking adventures with it. Clive

I tried this last weekend ....... it was hands down the best steak i have had in my life. The flavor the oven imparts to the steak is nothing short of miraculous. 10 out of 10 ..... Highly recommend ;)

No channel on KZbin is produced as impeccably as this one; try as I might, I have not found one single flaw in any of the many posts I have seen. It is mind boggling it doesn't have ten times more subscribers, at least, proof humanity is a failed project since any dizzy 'influencer' has 100 times more subscribers. Please keep making content as great as this; the world needs it, and it provides us with hope for a better future. Amen. And P.S.: I am a vegetarian.

Perfection. Well done Sir. Each step 100% accurate. I loved the camera shot 3:53 where you were carefully watching the fire/steak cooking and giving it your full attention. So many little things when doing this type of cooking that you capture in your videos. This really is the best I have seen on how to do all of this "correctly" (at least in my estimation). Your heat management translates to several other "old style" methods of cooking with live fire. Really first rate. Thank you for sharing. Best to you and yours. Pats for the pup.

[@MugatuNow]

Congratulations on your excellent videos and I love your passion for wood fire ovens, which I share. It’s all the little details that make such a difference and I’ve learnt many new things from your videos. In particular I always thought you needed to move the fire and coals to the side rather than the back in order to create a circular convection of air, but when I do, it becomes harder to regulate the temperature of the cooking In the way that you do by having the flames and coals in the back of the oven. Thanks again. Nat

[@TheWoodFiredOvenChef]

Hello Nat. Thank you for commenting. I really appreciate it, and glad you found them informative. The only time I put the fire to the side is when I'm making pizza, primarily so I can see the side of the pizza that's facing the fire and then turn it when that side is done. It's harder to do that when the fire is at the back and the pizza is facing away from you. Having the fire on the side does give you more depth in the oven, but I still find placing the fire in the back gives a little more flexibility with temperature.
