Choose my CharlieJames Datcher, TrustpilotMade s second purchase from Charlie Oven. The customer support was fantastic and really helpful to arrange shipping to my availability. Love the build quality from them. Have really made cooking outside fun.
AuthorOven looks spectacular in its setting! It could have been tailor made for our space! Lights easily, better than egg BBQ. Really well made! Because it keeps a stable temp for so long, other food can be added after the main event, very useful!
AuthorWe have used it time and time again since its arrival on our patio for cooking up amazing dishes. Roast potatoes has been the biggest win, super crispy with a fluffy centre and a subtle hint of smoke. The versatility of the Charlie Charcoal Oven is unmeasured with so much grill space and huge options in distance from the coals. It will take me years to exhaust the cooking options and combinations. A big bonus with Charlie compared to ceramic type BBQ's is the ability to add fuel and smoking woods as needed during long cooks with no need to lift out grates or heat deflectors etc.
AuthorI bought this fantastic colourful oven 4 weeks ago. The first impression is how well it is made, and the second is the wonderful splash of colour it brings to the garden. It is very simple to use after only a little practice. So far have cooked at low temperature as well as Pizza at high temperature. Following guidance given by Neil and Tara you simply can't go wrong. My results initially varied a little through the learning curve, but are now very pleasing. It is a joy to use, easy to clean and is built to last. I am extremely pleased I bought it.
AuthorWe bought this at the Cheltenham food festival, safe to say it was the best purchase we've done in a while. The Charlie Oven has been great this summer. It's made me become a better cook (with a few learning curves!!) and host for my friends and family. It's really nice to have an oven like appliance that is very well built and made of premium quality materials. Customer service was great at the Cheltenham food festival as well. I fully recommend if you love using BBQs at home and want something that can do everything all at once! smoker, BBQ/Grill and pizza oven!?
