DIY Terra Cotta Pizza Oven

When you are living off grid, you do not have the luxury of calling for pizza delivery. The only thing you can do is make your own using the homemade pizza sauce recipe as well as a good recipe such as the garlic ranch chicken pizza recipe. However, you are still going to need somewhere to cook it. In the past, we have used this diy $5 pizza oven, but now want to upgrade to this diy terra cotta pot pizza oven.

Who knew you could make a pizza oven using terra cotta pots? Well, believe it or not it is possible and very affordable too. If you are like me, you probably already have a few pots lying around, you can repurpose those and use them for this project. As for the tools, if you have used a drill before then you are good to go. I really love how simple it is to build one of these, 10 minutes is pretty much all the time you need.

Here’s What You’ll Need:

Step By Step Instructions

Step 1.

Turn your pot upside down and use the u hook,
to mark the two holes on the bottom of the pot.

Step 2.

Drill the two holes, start with a smaller bit and
gradually increase the size. Spray water around
the area to prevent the pot from cracking.

Step 3.

Attach the u-hook, with two washers and a nut
both on the inside and the bottom side.

Step 4.

That’s all you need, you are all set.

When cooking your pizza, you will need some hot charcoal and a grill or firepit. After you make your pizza, you place it on the pizza stone or pan which you then place on top of the grill. The terra cotta pot cover covers, the pizza pan. Cooking time should be about 5 minutes, this is because this oven generally produces more heat than your everyday oven. At the end of it all, you should have an evenly cooked dough, with toppings cooked just right.
