A few tips to keep in mind here:
1) Avoid using river rocks, wet rocks don’t mix well with fire and could pop.
2)Make sure the oven has adequate airflow. The fire at the bottom needs to burn well, and for that you need venting in the back and front / underneath.
3)) The hole in the back should facilitate the flames coming up and then banking off the very top rock. This will Bake the bread from the Top Down!
4) The Reverse fire is an excellent fire for this. It take about an hour to burn down. When it does, get that bread in there and then stoke the fire back up to get the bake
