Introduction

If you love backyard cooking and entertaining, a brick pizza oven might be just what you need.

Granted, this isn’t a project for someone with no DIY experience. But if you have a little skill, an attention to detail and a helper, you can build this brick backyard pizza oven for a fraction of what it would cost to have a professional build it for you. After all, you’re not building a house.

And it’s more than just a pizza oven. Once you’ve mastered controlling the temperature, you can bake anything you’d normally make in a conventional oven.

Dig and Prep the Pad Site

Build a form for the concrete pad with 2×10’s. Our pad is eight inches thick, so we spread class V gravel in the form, leaving eight inches to the top. Tamp down the base to compact it. Make sure you brace and slope your form so it sheds water.
