Firing up the v1.0.0 backyard pizza oven for the first time, I guess I went too hot too fast. Fortunately I can scavenge another rock from work and try again.

Are you just using slate?

You could throw a 3/8ths sheet of steel in there for much better heat transfer and reliability.

Yeah, 2" piece of bluestone. My concern now isn't just stability. If there's water in any of the brick or other stones, the same thing could happen.

“Fire brick” is a thing and the only kind of brick you should be using. There are loads of instructions and videos online that will tell you what materials will work. Don’t chance it.

Firebricks are well worth the price, at the very least they shouldn’t explode on you randomly. Mate built a dome pizza oven out of them & it was amazing.
