mini pizza oven help

LT72884 · May 20, 2015

I am wanting to turn my smokey joe into a portable propane pizza oven. If you have seen the pizzacraft pizza que oven, it will imitate that. I am trying to make it reach about 700f temps and not burn up alot of gas either. I am in the midle of designing one for my two burner camp chef rangerll stove top. Any ideas or pics of simular setups? Thanks

Not sure a smoky joe would work that well due to such small surface area, but you could try and model it after my FrankenWeber pizza kettle:

I have since retired my FrankenWeber as I'm amazingly thrilled with my Blackstone pizza oven, but the FrankenWeber served us quite admirably over the years.

Thanks for that thread. Thats what im exactly looking for. The reason for a smaller one to make it portable with my food cart so i can sell on street. However, i assume the large one will do just fine.

My current setup is as follows.
Redsky stone with a 1/4 inch steel plate that matches shape and size of red sky stone to reflect heat back. I still use charcoal since i only have one weber grill. If i can get a second one for way cheap, highly unlikely here in slc haha, i would make one just like yours.

Another question for you you, can you somehow add some wood to give it a smoke flavor?

Thanks.

As for the wood, to be honest, it's really not necessary. The level of charring you can get with the FrankenWeber setup is all you need. Remember, it takes TIME for smoke to settle into your food. When you are talking about cooking a pizza in under 3 mins, it's not going to make a noticeable difference.

Why don't you just buy a Blackstone Pizza oven? It's totally portable and uses very little fuel compared to the FW kettle.

Trust me, for all the work and tweaks I made on the FrankenWeber over the course of 3 years, to finally find a solution that is truly comparable to a wood fired pizza oven at $299 and cranks out pies better than I've ever done, why go to all the trouble?
