Dingley Dell oven.....on wheels

[cannyfradock]

I decided to give my mobile Wood-fired oven a good spring clean today and start a curing fire as the oven has not been in use for many months. Last week I gave it a lick of paint so today was spring clean day. It's a compact little oven but opens up on both sides. One side is for the gastro trays and prep table and the other side has a double sink which creates it's own hot water.

The Tardis......



Gastro and prep-side...





Sinks and cleaning area side...



I fired the oven to about 240c.....didn't want to take it that high but this Bushmans oven gets up to heat quite quickly.


This is how I operate the oven.....with the fire left flickering over to the rear right leaving the full depth of the oven for pizza making...



I shan't be using the oven for any events this year (apart from a few private events). The oven will be used as part of my Clay oven build and bake courses. www.celticwoodfiredovens.com/Clayovenbuildingcourses.html . Because of our inclement weather conditions I have indoor space available should the weather stop us from using the outdoor space...



The modular oven is a Bushmans oven from Jay Emery of www.dingley-dell.com ....It is one of his first mobile ovens and is many years old but always performs well.

Thanks tery for sharing your wonder experience of oven cleaning. Do you make use of some specific cleaner or tool to clean them? And any tips to clean electric ovens..

Hello Fadridrocky.......welcome to the forum.

The outside surfaces had a good clean with a cream cleaner and then with a food prep area cleanser. Unfortunately I can't help with your question as the only thing I don't clean is the oven.

The oven gets sterilised when it has been fully fired. I occasionally pass a steel brush over the hearth but usually when the coals are pushed to the side for pizza making...or removed for bread baking, the hearth is always spotless and sterilised.
