3. Light the paper. Put the door on the unit, but
leave the door spaced out 2” from the front of the
unit while the fire gets started. This will allow for
oxygen to feed the fire, and will prevent smoke
from coming out of the door while the flame is
established.
4. As the kindling burns down, open the door and
begin to add larger pieces to the wood rack.
Always use a heavy, insulated, fireproof glove
when adding wood.
We recommend adding two to three pieces 1-
1/2”
to 2” thick when getting the fire started. Any more
than that will not burn quickly and will slow the
heat up time of the unit. Replace the door, like in
step 3, each time you add wood to keep the heat
in the unit. Continue this process until the cavity
thermometer reads at least 750°F.
5. We recommend using a laser thermometer to
check the temperature of the soapstone cooking
surface. The cavity temperature can be much
hotter than the soapstone cooking surface. The
stones perform best for cooking in the 650°-
750°F range. The stones will stay hot and in the
cooking range for a long while after the wood has
burned down to coals. Visible flame is not
necessary to get the perfect slow cook on a
thicker crust pizza or vegetables!
