Building a Beer Keg Pizza Oven

- With this DIY pizza oven I can cook a Neapolitan style pizza in minutes. This oven gets hot!
I wanted to see if I could make my own home pizza oven similar to the Roccbox or Unni pizza ovens.
After a few iterations I got something that I think works awesome and can cook a pizza in one to two minutes depending on how hot I want to run the oven.
So this project took me a long time to finish, I worked on it, on and off for the last two years. Looking back and editing this video I think the video makes sense.

Pretty cool. Thanks for the ideas!
I’ve been watching pizza oven builds online (home sick from work all week, and this is the best example I’ve seen!
you don't really understand about pizza
@Chef Paolo nice english man, I know enough to understand it’s a great idea!
That’s freakin awesome, I wished I would seen this video with your rocket stove before I had build my brick oven. I had been seriously thinking about adding propane I didn’t know how to get started. I will be checking out your other videos for for some needed tips. Thanks
Hands down the best looking pizza out of any of these build guides! Thanks for the video! It’s nice to follow your logic in the process as the build evolves.
ikr, a lot of these they spend all this time building an oven, and then the pizza looks like trash
This has to be the best cooking show I have seen in a while :-)
Badass, I’ve been looking for something like this for a long time
This is the best build I’ve seen by far. Weld a shield on the back where the flame enters.
That rocket design is brilliant!
I recently got the Uuni Pro. Your oven kicks its ass! Nice build.
tops tops..given me awesome idea brick rocket stove/beer keg pizza oven comb.👍👍👍
Nice video, Thanks for this !
So rad. I'm going to make one too.
good job . Thanks for sharing.
WOW ! That Oven Is Awsome ! May Your Dreams Continue To Become A Reality !
wow what a nice Pizza oven ,your a smart man Andrew .great Job thanks
FINALLY A PIZZA BUILD, NICE
Amazing! Love it.
Don't let the pizza oven BIT YA. 🤣 Most of us already have the best pizza oven there is just setting on the patio. ITS CALL A KETTLE GRILL, i was looking on my patio. There set a smoker, 2 dome grills, one was even gas. ALL I DID WAS GET SOME PIZZA PANS AND A PEEL. It make some of the world best pizza it perfectly cooks up to 18" pizza . It season the pizza pans and they will last for ever. I LOVE IT. Its save me time and money
This is the DIY ooni oven I was looking for. The ooni oven has the insulation outside the steel so heat rises really fast. I will try building this design following ooni oven insulation method though. A big thank from Greece!
Hope you guys are doing well during this "global" thing going on. What are they calling it there, an exercise? That's what it's looking like to me, to see just how far they can control and push the masses before they turn on them.😒
@@flowerchild777 seems like way too many are just giving in and doing what is demanded of them fight back peeps fight back!
outstanding young man. I am a retired baker
Real nice design
Thanks a lot I enjoy it
Him eating the za towards the end was the best part.
Nice build. try a wetter dough, typically needed for high temp bakes to get that puffy rise. That should really rock your pizza with that awesome oven!
Fantastic idea man bravo
GREAT job kind sir!
inspiring... good video
90 second pizza, that's genius! Make a couple more and start a food cart. Make some good money. Very nice build!
Genius! 👏👏👏
This is really cool. Maybe use the propane burners for the floor and the rocket stove burning wood for flavor, any way this is very inspirational.
I would actually keep it how it is with the propane. But, get a nice stainless steel wood smoker tube and put apple wood chips in it. Then, put it into the ripping propane flame! They already make those for regular BBQs. Then you would have ultimate flavour with the speed of propane or NG!
Very nice i love to have this so i can make a homemade pizza
nice project :)
I wonder about how the air fuel mixture is working? Interesting design. You’ve come up with clever solutions. Interesting.
Impressive!
I'm from Italy. Great job!
Hope you guys are doing well there, during this "global" thing they're pushing on everyone.
Muy buena alternativa de horno pizzero practico y economico gracias por compartir.
Tu pizza saldra mejor con una temperatura de 430°C suerte
Genius!
Wooow cool 👍
This is one of the few builds that properly cooks the top of the pie. In so many cases the top is raw and the bottom is crucified. Well done, pardon the pun...
I have been saving 10 full size kegs for that reason try to build one do you have directions??of your pizza oven or maybe you can sell them great video
Super harika, Thank you,
love it!! thanks for the ideas!
Wow! Impressive. Would you recommend Rutlands cement for inside pizza oven? You must've had welding shop in high school.
Nice!
could you build a combo oven? use propane to heat preheat and the wood heat to maintain. And yes, fire bricks do a much better job on the crust.
Awesome
Great job! Nice Pizza...if I transfer this, can I use a old Bbq get myself new burners and a pizza stone as cooking surface...then use your technology and put some insulation into the Bbq cover..so I can copy a simple pizza oven with not having your great welding skills and no welder? My hint to each hobby pizza maker is make your dough 2 - 3 days in advance and keep it in the fridge..take it out roll it and rockn rolll...👍
I would like to suggest next video: thus over plus copper cookware. Can it handle the high heat?
I’m making one right now, I noticed you said it would be okay to do without cement. My test run without it is cooling down and there is a ton of cool down flex and it’s whining. I would say the cement is beneficial.
Definitely work on the rocket upgrade. You're gonna have a much more even heat and that wood smoke that just can't be gotten with a gas fire! Great build and mods but don't forget old school and some practical patience. This oven on a wood fire can do soooo much more. How about a LPG pre heat then a wood fire to cook and maintain?
the smoke flavor is a myth
You don’t know what your missing compared to a wood fired pizza 🍕. Patience is part of the game
£10 wood pellet burner sorts wood smell infusion out with a fraction of the mess, could also cold smoke for a few minutes before cooking
Отлично придумал👍
Probably could do pottery in that thing since the temp gets up so high.
BUILD A CENTER TURNTABLE CHAIN DRIVEN. NICE JOB.
Great job on your mods...
I like the idea that you introduced propane to pre-heat. I have built a brick pizza oven, and use only fire wood, it takes a very long time to get oven to baking temperature.
At 18:40 Is the shooting flames from propane or wood from the rocket stove???
Great
Nice
Awessome!!!
I wonder if it would be help to force air into the wood rocket burner using a jumping castle blower or something like that.
A £5 hair dryer works a treat on BBQ's.
Nice😀
Awesome build, thanks for sharing! I'm in the middle of doing something similar, but was planing to use a cordierite base after reading that a steel plate would transfer heat too fast and would char the bottom of the pizza, but it doesn't seem to be the case at all in your oven. One question, after some use, did the plate warped in some way? Thank you!
I hope he gets to your question. I'd also like to know if it warped at all, but I doubt it
Great Video! I'm currently converting my 4' x 3' fire pit into a pizza oven by putting a removable copper dome on top of it. Have you had any issues with the refractory cement coming off and how thick of a layer was that? I'm worried about it being too heavy and it sticking to the copper so I want to do a real thin layer with steel mesh holding it all together.
Please keep us updated on your progress. (Hopefully I'll get notified when/if you do👍)
Cool
YES!
Nice video! Add some perlite or vermiculite in your refractory cement for isolation and it makes the dome lighter in weight. Bake your pizza direct on firebricks or refractory tiles for the real Italian taste, not on metal.
Love
you're a handy man that can use tools but you do need a good design to start with and other materials
Did you put the fire bricks back in after the redesign. It didn’t look like you did. On regular pizza ovens isn’t the bricks themselves heated instead of having flames above them. Just thought you maybe could heat them from underneath instead of having a flame shooting up above the cooking top. I’ve made grills out of those same kegs and they last forever! Good video 👍👍
No you can't just heat the bricks. All that would happen is you would burn the base way before the topping melted. You have to have the heat coming from above. In fact the Roccbox this was inspired by has no floor heating (it's not required) The refractory base heats up nicely anyway. Same goes with any full sized commercial wood fired pizza oven.
I was thinking... what if you put a grate over the rocket's opening in the oven's floor... then put a chunk of pecan or hickory or oak right on it? Wouldn't that give you a more "wood-fired" taste? I think if you put it in the rocket's intake it would just burn up clean without any taste entering the pizza...
Exelent
Nice work Andrew. Certainly a contender ( I have a Roccbox). Now you just need to work on your dough making skills and you can start up a food wagon. :o) Great project, well done.
Hahaha 😁 Sounds like a plan😎
Any updates on your next pizza build?
Try to use a fire from wood inside and put the coals to the side , like to see a vid doing that .
Did you get any off taste from the steel floor base?
I would have added you clay mix on the outside of the keg
I'd love to try this but would I have to worry about the steel expanding at a different rate as the Pearlite?
Ajita White you couldn’t add enough wood or charcoal under that size of wood too worry about that. And who worries about expanding? Expanding doesn’t =failure and expanding doesn’t =explosion. So what’s the issue? Metal is malleable
I have a feeling smaller pizzas might work best with that oven you built. Try Pizzas about 8 inches round. If I'm correct about the size of the pizza then it means that oven would be better served if you made it three times larger to fit a normal size pizza. I think the pizzas are too close to the heat source and is why you are getting burns. A larger oven or a smaller pizza would have a more correct distance from the heat source to get a more even cook. Nice work. Don't stop at pizzas try making a steak in that thing. I bet a steak would come out a lot better. Just use a cast iron skillet.
Turn pizza turn
would it be wrong not to cement the inside of the keg?
Andrew, I am curious about the burner. I am thinking of building a pipe burner like this using stainless steel pipe that would go through the mouth of my dome oven (diameter width of my oven is 960mm). I want to use natural gas (I assume it is low pressure). I am thinking of a long 800mm s/s pipe (no joins inside the oven) with one or two jet burners. Do you think the pipe can sit within an oven at 400 degrees celsius? Obviosuly the ball valve will be outside the oven with no exposure to heat. Do you think it will work.
I don't want to core drill a hole in my oven floor ...
Is the refractory cement to keep heat in?
Or is it to stop the metal heating up too much?
I like it and it seems to work but for me the whole point of a pizza oven is that its wood fired and stone baked! Maybe add a pizza stone? Great job tho!
I need your help please, i have a wood fired pizza oven i want to add a propane burner to . I used 3/4' pipe and shaped it around most of the oven for better heat distribution and added only one air mixer. i cant seem to get the flames to turn blue and oven wont heat up . if you have email or way to send you more info let me know please
Thanks a lot. I want to make one but little bigger so I can make pizza and roast meat.
great job but the floor needs to be insulated and the cracks need to be sealed off ..
What is used for the pizza oven base bottom where you put the pizza?
Hi just curious how long of a burn do you get from a 20 lbs propane tank?
Dont put metal on top of the stones.. the stones absorb moisture from the pizza whilst cooking and make a nice chispy pizza base..
i have a genuine question .. is there any reason for alarm because u didnt use fire bricks.. overall i love the project
A regular brick might contain impurities that, in proper conditions, might cause them to explode at high temperatures (think as a small scale, but enough to be potential hazardous or at least ruin a pizza); the oven temperature might exceed the bricks own curing temperature. That's a lot of "might". Cover them with a sheet of steel and you are safe.
Should have shaped and welded some steel mesh for concrete to key to. Good work tho👍
or chicken wire
So im confused why burners on the bottom and the back. Is that for it to heat up faster?
Hey are in Wisconsin
Does the pizza taste like propane???
What is the clay mix... please
You really should season the steel deck like an iron pan to protect against food contamination.
At 1000 F any contamination probably burns off completely. Seasoning would burn off too anyway.
Can I use LPG instead of propane
Andres Carlos LPG is propane. (liquid propane gas)
The keg/ dome has a gap visible where it meets the cooking surface. Your project is good but needs a little polishing.
what kind of container is it???
If I could only find a way to apply a rocket stove to my already build brick oven.
can you built one and sell for me ? thank you .
Good job. Your pizza will come out better if you bake directly on the fire brick (just make sure it's food grade).
