	Greetings all!
	In south Florida use that lime shell stone that is all over the place,
just start your fire low and let the stone heat and dry slowly.  That goes
for almost any stone that is in damp conditions . . . once dry you can
crank up the heat and get a slow hot oven with even heat and no exploding
rocks (from steam).
	Another idea that I have tried here is to find a flagstone construction
outfit and ask for all the loose bits that are not good for making
walkways, sandstone and shale are both good for ovens.  Just pile into a
larger than you think you need oven shape and cover the outside with sod,
dirt, whatever to seal in and keep in the heat.  No need to cement the
stones together so when its time to remove ( after it cools off) it just
knock it down.  Enjoy
	Balldrich
