Important notes before you cook

Before you light up and start
cooking with your new
Uuni Pro, here are some
important things to note.

Read Uuni Pro’s
safety instructions

Uuni Pro is super-fun but your
safety is paramount. Please take
the time to review the safety
guide in your manual before you
begin.

Uuni Pro is designed for
outdoor use only. Like all

fire-based products, children
and animals should not be left
unattended while Uuni Pro is lit.

Uuni Pro remains hot even after
visible flames have died down.
Allow at least two hours after
using Uuni Pro for it to cool
down before attempting to
move, clean or remove parts.

Season your Uuni Pro
We know that you are excited
to get cooking, but it’s best for
the long term if you run your
Uuni Pro once before your first
cook. We advise that you run
your Pro at top temperatures for
30 minutes, allow it to cool and
wipe down the inside with dry
paper towels.

Choose your fuel
Using the right fuel is your first
step towards delicious food. See
page 12 for further information.

If you want to switch fuel burners,
please allow your Uuni Pro to cool
first.

Use your Uuni Gloves
Always wear your Uuni Gloves
when using your Uuni Pro.

Prep your food

We have a lot of recipes on our
website which are tried, tested
and delicious. Your Uuni Pro
will cook almost anything and
everything and experimentation
is all part of the fun.

See page 32 for some classic Uuni
recipes to get you started.

Caution:
Uuni Pro is designed for outdoor use only.

How and where to set up your Uuni Pro

It’s time to find a space for
your Uuni Pro. Some important
things to consider are:

Assembly

Follow our online video guides
on our YouTube channel or use
the step-by-step guide in your
manual.

The table that you choose needs
to be able to hold the weight of
your Uuni Pro and, of course,
anything you wish to cook. We
recommend a sturdy table that
is capable of holding weights
upwards of 30kg (66lbs).

The table material should be
something that can handle the
radiant heat from Uuni Pro.
Wood, metal and stone are
recommended. Glass and plastic
are not suitable.

Caution: Wind can cause flames to escape from the rear of your Uuni Pro.
Exercise caution when your Pro is lit and do not leave it unattended.

Place your Uuni Pro away from
structures and buildings. Pro
performs best when set up in
a space sheltered from wind. If
you are cooking on a breezy day,
position your Uuni Pro so that
the air enters through the back
to encourage airflow.

Do not use Uuni Pro on the
ground.

To extinguish your Uuni Pro
when you’re done cooking, allow
it to cool down naturally.

Never expose Uuni Pro to water
while it’s hot.

Protect your Uuni Pro from
adverse weather conditions,
especially rain, when not in use.
Once your Uuni Pro has cooled,
use your Uuni Pro cover to
keep it free from garden debris.
Store your Pro indoors during
extended periods without use
and during rainy spells.

Always store your stone
baking boards in a warm, dry
environment when your Uuni Pro
is not in use.

See page 26 for further care
instructions.

Which fuel should you use?

The choice is yours!

Uuni Pro has been designed
with versatility in mind and we
use different fuels for different
reasons. While cooking with
fire is as much an art as it is
a science, the following table
will give you some idea of what
results to expect from each fuel.

Perfect for creating that stone-baked, wood-fired flavour
for authentic Neapolitan style pizzas. Wood is ideal for
anything that enjoys a fast cooking time, such as steaks,
fish and vegetables.

Charcoal gives you the option to run Uuni Pro at a lower
and consistent heat which is ideal for larger pieces of
meat or bread.

We love cooking at around 300˚C - 350˚C (572˚F ­662˚F) using pellets for a delicious calzone, or even
two at a time! Use your door with thermometer for best
results.

Awesome for everything! Lower temperatures for bread,
higher temperatures for pizza.

Top tip:

Check out uuni.net for some inspiration.

Chimney and ceiling vent positioning explained

The versatility of Uuni Pro comes not only from the fuel types, but also the positioning of the chimney and ceiling vents to control airflow and
the distribution of heat in the oven.

The chimney vent controls the total airflow through the body and can be adjusted while wearing your Uuni Gloves.

Open (vertical position):

Maximum airflow encourages a
hot burn for wood, charcoal and
pellets.

Closed (horizontal position):
Reduces airflow thus dampening
fire.

14

The ceiling vent changes how heat behaves inside the oven. If it’s open, heat escapes straight up the chimney. If it’s closed, it allows heat and
smoke to gather at the top of the oven chamber until they escape through the side air channels.

Ceiling vent: When this is
closed, it will reduce air flow and
allows hot air to gather inside
the oven for longer.

Side air channels: These allow
hot air to escape when the
chimney vent is open and ceiling
vent is closed.

15

The doors

Uuni Pro’s doors have both been specially designed for optimum performance. Familiarise yourself with taking the door with thermometer off
and on before you light up. Remember, the pizza door stays on throughout your cook and can be removed when Uuni Pro has cooled.

To close the Door with Thermometer
Align the bottom edge hinges, raise the door until almost closed
then lift and release on to the latch.

16

Pizza Door

The pizza door is locked in place when cooking with gas, wood,
charcoal or pellets. Raise the door’s tabs to secure the door in place.

Important notes:

• When cooking with gas, only use the pizza door.

• Moisture may damage Uuni Pro’s door with thermometer.

17

Cooking with wood

There is something special
about wood-fired food and we
love it at Uuni HQ. The sights,
sounds and smells are hard
to beat. Wood gives Uuni­cooked dishes extra flavour
and is perfect for an authentic
Neapolitan stone-baked pizza.

Types of wood

We recommend the use of
high-quality, dry hardwood from
deciduous trees such as oak or
beech. We recommend wood
pieces of up to 25cm (10”)
long and around 4cm (1.5”)
in diameter as these will fit
comfortably in your charcoal/
wood burner.

Do not use treated or painted
wood. Wood with high resin

content, such as pine or spruce,
might add unwanted flavours to
your cooking.

Lighting method

To light the wood, add no
more than 4 pieces on the
charcoal/wood burner and
light using either a blow torch
or firestarters. Do not use
petroleum based firestarters
as these may impart unwanted
flavours to your food. Once your
wood is fully lit (5-10 minutes)
begin adding more wood
through the hatch.

Always wear your Uuni Gloves
when using Uuni Pro.

Maintaining temperature

Wood will give a wide range
of temperatures based on the
amount burning. Add little and
often to keep Uuni Pro running
at a consistent temperature.

As with all wood-fired cooking,
it is best to maintain your fire
gradually. Refuel when the wood
has mainly burnt to embers but
before all visible flames have
disappeared.

Do not overload the grate as too
much wood may damage your
Uuni Pro and cause excess smoke
or soot.

18

19

Cooking with charcoal

Charcoal makes it easy to
control the temperature of
your Uuni Pro from very low
temperatures to as high as
450˚C (840˚F).

Types of charcoal

We recommend using regular
high quality charcoal.

It is best to avoid instant
lighting charcoal and charcoal
briquettes. Instant lighting
charcoal can add unwanted
flavours and briquettes may
block airflow through the grate
during a long cooking session.

Lighting method

Place a couple of handfuls
of charcoal on the charcoal/
wood burner and use either
a firestarter or a blow torch
to light. Once the charcoal
is lit, gradually add more to
build a good charcoal fire.
Keep the hatch and door
with thermometer closed for
optimum performance.

Always wear your Uuni Gloves
when using Uuni Pro.

Maintaining temperature

Top up your charcoal as
required throughout your cook.
To maintain an even, steady
temperature, it is better to add
gradually than to add a lot in
one go.

Do not overload your charcoal/
wood burner with charcoal as this
may damage your Uuni Pro and
cause excess smoke or soot.

20

Important note:

Do not use petroleum based or other firestarters and
charcoal that may impart unwanted flavour to your food.

21

Cooking with pellets

Hardwood pellets are an
extremely energy dense heat
source. They are easy to light
and give an authentic
wood-fired flavour.

optimum pellet level

side hole for torch flame

22

Type of pellets

Only use hardwood pellets
that are meant for cooking and
grilling.

Avoid using softwood pellets as
these won’t burn as efficiently.

Do not use pellets meant for
animal bedding or heating.

These can contain additives and
potentially harmful chemicals.

Lighting method

To light your pellets with a blow
torch, place two handfuls of
pellets in the grate and slide the
tray inside. Point the blow torch
flame through the side hole
(circled in pink in the adjacent
diagram) on to the pellets for
around 30-45 seconds. Once
the pellets have caught fire,
gradually add more pellets via
the hopper. You can find a video
guide on cooking with pellets on
our YouTube channel. Do not add

too many pellets in one go as this
might extinguish the flames.

You can also light the pellets
using a natural firestarter. Follow
the above steps but instead of
using a blow torch, place a lit
firestarter in front the pellets
and slide the tray back in.

Maintaining temperature

To get the most consistent burn,
top up your pellets little and
often. Uuni Pro will run best
when pellets are topped up to
approximately 3 cm (1”) from
the top of the hopper as shown
in the adjacent diagram.

Never add a full load of pellets
while lighting or topping up.
Instead, add small amounts of
pellets gradually and allow these
to light fully before topping up.

Caution: Wind can
cause flames to
escape from the rear
of your Uuni Pro so,
as always, exercise
caution when your
Uuni is lit and do not
leave it unattended.

Top tip:

Moisture can effect the way the pellets
burn. Always store your pellets in an airtight
container in a dry enviroment.

23

Cooking with gas

Nothing beats gas for ease of
use and temperature control.
You can be ready to go at the
flick of a switch and using gas
gives you the ability to cook
anything from loaves of bread,
to pizza and steak.

Type of gas

Please refer to your Uuni Pro
gas burner manual for more
information on which type of gas
to use. Gas types can vary from
country to country.

Important note: If the flames go out, turn off the gas and wait five minutes before reigniting.
Refer to your gas burner manual for further safety instructions.

Lighting method

Set up your Uuni Pro with the
pizza door.

Push in and slowly turn the gas
burner control anti-clockwise.
When you hear a click your gas
should be lit.

You can find a video on how
to light your gas burner on our
YouTube channel.

If the gas does not light please
refer to your gas burner manual.

Maintaining temperature

Use the gas burner control to
change the heat output of your
Uuni Pro gas burner.

You can also use your chimney
and ceiling vents for temperature
adjustment:

For hotter temperatures, close
the vents and turn the burner
to full.

For cooler temperatures, open
the chimney vent, close the
ceiling vent two-thirds and turn
the burner control to low.

24

Important note:

Only use the pizza door when cooking with gas.

Care instructions

Where should I store my
Uuni Pro?

How do I clean my Uuni Pro?

How do I care for my stone
baking boards?

It is important that your Uuni Pro is protected from adverse weather conditions, including high winds
and rain. We recommend that you store Uuni Pro indoors during extended periods of time and that you
keep your stone baking boards in a warm, dry environment when your Uuni is not in use. Use your Uuni
Pro Cover to protect your Pro from garden debris. Ensure your Uuni Pro is completely dry and cool before
storing.

There’s no need for elbow grease as a run through at top temperatures will do most of the work for you. If
you like, you can wipe down the inside with dry paper towels and use stainless steel cleaner on the outer
shell. Avoid abrasive cleaning products.

You should only cook pizza and dry, bread-based dishes directly on the stone baking boards. If you are
cooking meat, vegetables or other dishes then we would recommend using your Uuni Sizzler Pan.

Your stone baking boards can be cleaned by running your Uuni Pro at top temperatures. If you would like to
hand wash your stone baking boards, use warm water and dry them in a conventional oven for a minimum
of 2 hours at 60˚C (140˚F). The stone baking boards are not dishwasher safe.

Top tip:

Once they have completely cooled, you can flip the stone baking boards for the next time
you use your Uuni Pro: The top temperatures inside Pro will naturally clean the underside.

26

How do I extinguish my
Uuni Pro?

Gas: Switch off, detach the gas regulator from the bottle and leave to cool.
Charcoal/wood/pellets: Leave your Uuni Pro to burn through any remaining fuel and allow it to

cool naturally.

Caution: Do not apply water directly to your Uuni Pro to extinguish or cool it down as this can cause damage
and personal injury.

How do I clean the glass on
the door?

Allow your Uuni Pro to completely cool before wiping down the glass with a paper towel.

Caution: Do not expose the glass to water while still warm or hot as this may cause damage to your Uuni Pro.

27

Troubleshooting

It’s safe to say that on any given day at least one member of our team is out using their Uuni – whether trying out recipes or, well, just because
we love the food Uuni cooks. Between us, we’ve racked up thousands of hours of cooking and we think we know how to get the best from Uuni
Pro. We’re always happy to give advice and tips: Remember to check out our online resources and to contact us at [e-mail] if you
have any questions.

I can’t light my Uuni Pro

My gas burner does not ignite

I am seeing smoke or soot

My window is sooty

28

Refer to the steps on page 18 onwards. The easiest way to light wood, charcoal and pellets is using a blow
torch. Remember to remove the chimney cap and to open the vents as necessary.
If you are having difficulty lighting your gas burner, please refer to the Uuni Pro gas burner manual.

Refer to the steps in your gas burner manual and ensure that you are using the pizza door.

Caution: Never use your Uuni Pro in high winds.

When any wood or charcoal starts to burn, there will be smoke produced until it reaches optimum
temperatures. Add fuel gradually and make sure it is burning cleanly before cooking. If you continue to see
dark smoke, it may be that your fuel is not completely dry or that too much has been added at once.

There will always be a light layer of soot when cooking with wood or charcoal. If this happens during your
cook, wait for your Uuni Pro to completely cool before gently wiping the glass with a paper towel.

Caution: Do not expose the glass to water while still warm or hot as this may cause damage to your Uuni Pro.

My Uuni Pro is too hot

If your Pro is running too hot, reduce the amount of fuel added. You can also reduce the draw from the
chimney by adjusting the chimney vent.

My Uuni Pro is not hot enough

Your door with thermometer measures the ambient temperature inside Uuni Pro. However, this may differ
from the temperature of the stones. We recommend an infrared thermometer for reading the temperature
on the stone baking boards. If your Pro is not reaching top temperatures, here are a few things to consider:

• Your stone baking boards should be dry before you cook (you can dry them in a conventional oven at
60˚C (140˚F) for 2 hours).

• If your Uuni Pro has been exposed to adverse weather conditions, including rain, it will take longer to
preheat.

• Make sure the chimney cap is removed before you light and while you cook.

• Check that your ceiling and chimney vents are in the correct position. Refer to page 14 in this guide for
tips.

• Make sure the fuel that you are using is dry and suitable for Uuni Pro.

• The grate in your charcoal/wood burner may need to be brushed while cool to free up the air holes
before lighting.

Top tip: If your stone baking boards are too hot, try resting an Uuni Sizzler Pan on
them for 30 seconds or so to absorb some of the heat.

29

My stone baking boards
look dirty

Your stone baking boards may change colour during your cook but this will not affect performance. If you
want, you can scrape away any excess food with your peel. Once they have completely cooled, you can
flip the stone baking boards up-side-down for the next time you use your Uuni Pro: the top temperatures
inside Pro will naturally clean them.

If you would prefer to handwash your stone baking boards, allow them to completely cool before washing
them with warm water. They should then be dried in a conventional oven for 2 hours at 60˚C (140˚F).

My pizza is stuck to the peel

30

It’s happened to the best of us, but try these tips and you’ll never suffer the heartbreak of losing a pizza
again:

• Your peel, dough and sauce should be at room temperature.

• The dough that you are using may be too wet: Add a generous sprinkling of flour to the dough and peel
before beginning your stretch. Remember to use the Uuni Classic Pizza Dough recipe (page 32) for the
best results.

• Take care to ensure that there are no holes in the dough as sauce can create a ‘glue’ effect between the
dough and peel.

• Before you add toppings, give the peel a shake to ensure that your dough is moving freely.

• Keep your toppings light.

• Do not leave your dough on the peel for a long time before cooking.

• If your dough has become stuck, lift it at one side and give a gentle blow of air underneath: This will
create a ‘hovercraft’ effect and your pizza should glide more easily from your peel to the stone.

My Uuni Pro has changed
colour

The appearance of stainless steel can be affected when exposed to temperatures of 537˚C (1000˚F) and
parts of your Pro will regularly reach this temperature and above. This will not affect the performance of
your Uuni Pro.

We recommend storing your Uuni Pro using your Uuni Pro Cover and keeping it in a dry environment.
Some imperfections can be removed using a stainless steel cleaner.

My door is tricky to remove

If you find that your Uuni Pro door it is sticking, this may indicate that your Pro is running too hot: Reduce
the amount of fuel added in one go and try to maintain temperatures of no more than 500˚C (932˚F).

There is also the option to loosen off the door hinges. Use the supplied allen key to loosen the hinges on
the sides of Uuni Pro as shown in adjacent diagram. Once loose, you can slide the door hinges forward
slightly before securing them again: This gives the door more room for expansion and will make it easier to
add and remove from Pro.

Always use your Uuni Gloves when the Uuni Pro is hot.

Ingredient Weight Qty / Vol

Prime rib* Up to 2.5kg Up to 5½ lbs

Coarse sea salt

Black pepper

Extra equipment

Meat thermometer

Roasting tray

Tin (aluminium) foil

*rib of beef in the UK

The rib is cooked using Kenji López-Alt’s reverse sear technique.
This technique is great as it gives an even and thorough cook at low
temperatures before being finished in a way that only Uuni Pro can.

Prep begins at least one day before you cook: Rub the beef with salt
and pepper, patting it so that as much of the seasoning stays on the
meat as possible. Now leave the meat uncovered in the coldest part
of your fridge to season for a couple of days.

Pre-heat your Uuni Pro using only charcoal to 120˚C (248˚F). It is
important that the temperature doesn’t go much above this. Maintain
the temperature by adding small amounts of charcoal when required.

Place the meat in the roasting tin on a large sheet of tin foil. Leave the
meat uncovered but fold the tin foil in a way that protects the meat
from the direct heat of the charcoal.

For medium rare, cook the until the middle reads 54˚C (129˚F) on
your meat thermometer. This took approximately 2 hours for the rib
pictured.

Remove and allow to rest for 30 minutes while covered by tin foil and
kitchen towels. In the meantime, load up the charcoal burner with
plenty of charcoal and bring the oven to 350˚C (662˚F) or above.

Once at temperature, place the meat back in the oven for a final
searing, turning it around a few times to achieve an even char. This
shouldn’t take more than 5-10 minutes: At this stage, you are only
finishing the meat, not cooking it.

Serve and enjoy!

*Your choice of cooked mussels, fish chunks, king prawns or squid - we chose to use all!

Pre-heat your Uuni Pro oven for 10-15 minutes or until 350°C
(662°F).

Add olive oil to the Uuni Pro Casserole Dish and pre-heat in Uuni
for 1-2 minutes.

Add in the garlic, chilli and tarragon and fry until soft.

Add the squid, fish, tomatoes and wine and cook with the lid on for
15-20 minutes.

Once the squid is tender and the sauce has thickened, add the
mussels and prawns and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until all
seafood has cooked through.

Sprinkle a little parsley on top and serve with fresh wood-fired
bread.

We recommend using charcoal. Cooking
temperature approximately 350°C (662°F).
