Step 2:
As the timber burns down, move the embers down both sidewalls of
the oven.
Step 3:
Continue to burn timber until you have a coal bed approx 150mm
wide, down each side of the oven, excluding the choke and the front
arch. For efficient cooking leave the coals and embers around the
outside of the oven.
Step 4:
Cooking...
If desired, add a smoking box and/or wood chips just prior to placing in the food.
While cooking the door should be used to control the fire by limiting the amount of air available and the exhausting
of the smoke through the chimney. To control the fire move the door back into the choke allowing some air
movement.
If a long cooking time is required it maybe necessary to add more fuel.
Enjoy!
