Why Rocket-Powered
Wood Ovens?
Power your wood oven for free!
Fire a rocket oven using only scrap wood and twigs from your backyard.
Truly sustainable cooking
This eco-friendly oven is the solution for reducing your carbon footprint. Limit harmful emissions by using a fraction of the wood needed for conventional wood ovens. Pizza ovens to the rescue!
Efficient combustion process
"Rocket-powered" doesn't refer to actual rockets... We use the word "rocket" because it's super-efficient, and heats up in a flash. The design allows for a super clean burn, using less fuel, and minimizing smoke and pollutants.
Be more self-reliant
These are do-it-yourself project plans that are designed to be created with low-cost materials and are suitable for anyone with basic skills (no welding required!)
No need to worry about power outages
Enjoy the benefits of sustainable cooking, without relying on imported gas, electricity or propane. Even a suburban backyard can provide enough wood for a rocket oven.
