Becoming self-sufficient is a constant process of learning, experimenting and seizing on the ideas of others to help yourself on your own path to independent living.

That includes using new and multiple ways of cooking that do not rely on traditional cooking methods like a stove or oven.

A wood fired clay oven is one such option and best of all you can build one yourself with fire bricks, cement, glass bottles, clay and water.

While the food you cook in a wood fired clay oven would be delicious and you would use it much more than just in an emergency, it could also be one way to get through a long-term power outage and to cook things that you could not on a grill or open fire.
