Fire side chat with Chris Vozzo
Join me as I have a fire side chat with one of Instagrams most prolific Wood Fired Oven home cooks. I recently had the privilege to go and meet Chis Vozzo and his lovely family in southern Queensland, Australia. Following a devastating accident in 2013, Chris talks about his recovery and why cooking so often in his Wood Fired Oven helps him heal and move forward with his life. We chat about his family heritage, his wood fired oven location and planning considerations as well as examining some of his most popular cooks we see on Instagram. Take a listen to an incredible story and get motivated to get cooking outdoors this weekend.
