Tandoor Oven - Test Fire

*Tandoor Oven - Test Fire*
Part 2

For the first firing, I used a couple of fist size chunks of Oak Lump Charcoal.

Here is what the inside of the oven is running after preheating for about 90 minutes.

And the outside shell...

I was able to fire the oven back up and get some more measurements. It does appear that the actual air temp is really close to the sidewalls, actually hotter.

A reading from the side of the cooking chamber.

I then set up a type K thermocouple as close to the center of the cooking chamber as I could.

The air temp from there is reading about 60F higher than the sides.
