Giving thanks for the bread (oven) – with plans for building a wood fired clay oven of your very own. As we get ready to fire up for Thanksgiving, I’m reminded how lucky I am.

Not many cooks have a huge wood-burning outdoor oven, but thanks to my loving ( and very handy) husband we have two, one in New York and one in Maine. Bill built the Maine oven so the process could be filmed, so in a way I can thank The Three Thousand Mile Garden for that one. But that one never would have happened if the New York one hadn’t came first, and although Bill did of course build it the ultimate thanks there should probably go to his childhood.

There were several outdoor bread ovens in the neighborhood where he grew up, including one at his grandmother’s place. Build Your Own Earth Oven.
