    Been there, done that. Pizza cooks are the Achilles heal for unchecked bands.

    There are some very cool new pizza ovens out there too so Roccbox is one of a few cool options. You can totally have mine for a month though if you want to see what a dedicated pizza oven is all about (btw- its a cool thing to have. 
    How good is the Roccbox, I’ve been having an eye on it for a while.  I have a pizzacraft propane oven but I want to step up my game and the Roccbox looks decent.
    It’s really good. It actually runs way better on propane than wood but it works with both. I would say that with the current slate of new ovens coming in that you may be able to find something similar for a little less $. It’s on the higher end of the price scale but it’s a freaking tank. @Johnincarolina uses his more than I use mine but I think we are both pretty happy with it.

    I hate to hear it.  I lost mine very recently.  After talking to a local large dealer.  I was told this.  Take a photo and submit it.  never know.  Also check with the local dealer, see if they have a grill they use for public cooks etc,.  They may sell you the dome.  My dealer did that for me.  Save me some $

    Legit terrible.  Sorry this happened.  I can only imagine the sinking feeling in your gut as you watched it slip out.

    Nope. This is straght-up neglect on my part. I knew I had a problem and was hoping I could coax one my cook out of the egg.

    My mess, my clean-up. 

    I love BGE's warranty. I will use it when approaite.

    Got the new dome within a couple of days but just got around to slapping it on. New hinges as well. 

    Pretty easy to install. If the lid falls off on the first cook, I retract that statement. 


    Love that spot you’ve got there!
