Tandoor Ovens

Utilized in Indian or Middle Eastern cuisine, tandoor ovens can elevate your kitchen with traditional tandoori meats and dishes like naan or kebabs. Modern models often use a mixture of clay and stainless steel to provide traditional flavor with efficiency, durability, and safety. These commercial clay ovens are also user friendly, often running on gas rather than wood or charcoal.

Natural Gas

Why Use a Tandoor Oven?

Tandoor ovens provide a versatile, efficient method of cooking flavorful food. Some units feature clay oven walls that hold in the heat from the flame to provide even cooking and can handle temperatures as high as 900 degrees Fahrenheit. Tandoor ovens are used for distinct dishes like traditional naan, tandoori chicken, and sheekh kebabs and are an essential element of Indian, Pakistani, and Afghan cuisine.

Care and Maintenance of a Tandoori Oven

Depending on your tandoor oven's material, you'll need to prepare it before cooking. Clay ovens need to be properly cured before cooking food and may need fresh coats of clay over time. For steel tandoor ovens, make sure to clean out any rust or soot buildup inside. Always remember to remove any ash on the bottom of your tandoor oven after cooking.
