Topic: Which Tandoori oven???

[garethtikka]

Hi all, I am about to purchase my first Tandoori clay oven. I'm in the UK with a budget of up to ?300 including all accessories I need.

There seems to be 3 main companies that supply them:

TandooriIQ
Spices of India
Puri

I want to make sure I get it right first time as they're not cheap. Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

Can't speak for the others but I was lucky enough to get a TandooriQ for my birthday around 4 or 5 years ago. Still using it yet. Yes it would be great if it was a bit bigger. Yes it would be great if occasionally (once per year) you did not have to patch some of the clay around the top - nothing wrong it's just use. For my money it's a good product great in the garden in the summer with the BBQ but then again I have used it in all weathers wind rain etc no problem. Whichever you get if you like tandoori and tikka it's well worth it. Good luck
