Top 6 Ways to Use Firewood in The Summer
Woodfire Pizza ovens
Wood fired pizza ovens are an excellent feature to your homes that draws the envy of family and friends. It makes cooking a fun and flavour-filled experience for all involved. Wood-fired ovens cook at very high temperatures (around 400 degrees), unlike domestic ovens that just can’t get that hot. They are not just great for cooking pizzas either. If you sweep out the embers and let it cool a bit, the oven makes the perfect environment for slow roasting.
Our well-seasoned premium Redgum firewood provides a clean, hot burn, ideally suited for creating the perfect pizza. Don’t just think the wood as a fuel or heat source, think of it as an ingredient.
Our firewood will give your food that authentic smoky flavour you want when making wood fired pizza. We recommend ordering bottle size wood for large pizza ovens. For small mobile type pizza ovens, we recommend ordering our stick wood.
Campfires & Cooking
Campfires are great fun at any age and will keep you warm on a chilly evening. Importantly, using well-seasoned firewood rather than poor quality, ‘green’ wood to fuel your campfire will ensure that you can enjoy this traditional summer pastime without being drowned in a thick cloud of smoke. Freshly cut, ‘green’ wood, generates more smoke and fumes while it burns and therefore, is a stronger pollutant than seasoned wood.
Whether you use campfire for warmth, cooking or both - our premium Redgum firewood is an excellent slow burner which produces hot flames with less smoke, which makes it an ideal heat source for both activities.
Fire pits
Fire pits make a stylish feature to any back garden and come in a variety of sizes and materials. They are ideal, whether it’s for roasting marshmallows, cooking a BBQ feast, or just conversing around the warmth of the licking flames. If you have a large fire pit and want to enjoy a truly spectacular fire, then we recommend ordering our premium Redgum wood split into the size of ‘Big Bertha’ or ‘Overnighters’.
Big Bertha – they are exactly what they sound like – largest pieces in our range for the mega-fire enthusiast. Burns incredibly well & lasts the longest. It’s a fun way to enjoy a long summer night and not need to keep adding firewood a whole time.
We also offer Overnighters – large pieces with smaller ones mixed in generally. They can burn for hours at a time & it’s a popular choice for outdoor fire pits.
Chimineas
A wonderful way to bring warm and cosy ambience to your patio. It will allow you to enjoy sitting outside for longer on fine summer’s evening. Unlike a fire pit, the fire in a chiminea is contained. It is enclosed in a bow that has sides all the way up to the chimney. The smoke is then forced out of the chiminea which helps prevent your patio from getting overly smoked – though using Lumbajak well-seasoned, dry Redgum firewood will also serve to reduce smoke.
Wood burning Stoves
Unfortunately, not every day in Adelaide, South Australia is a warm one. It’s always useful to have firewood on hand in readiness to fire up your wood-burning stove on that unexpected chilly evening.
Cooking on Fire
If you spend enough time around the fire, then you’re going to get hungry! Humans have cooked over wood fires for thousands of years, and it’s making a comeback.
Gas ovens and microwaves may be convenient, but they cannot replace the incredible flavour that comes from cooking over wood. If you’re looking for premium quality cooking wood – we’ve got you covered! Don’t forget that everything that goes into to dish is an ingredient, firewood included.
Summertime is meant to be delicious, so start it right by cooking with Lumbajak Firewood!
