Peka, Sač Balkan Coal Oven

Originally called Sač or Peka, our Balkan Coal Oven is a set of 5 elements, all handmade by our craftsmen in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Main elements are 304 stainless steel pan and iron cast lid. This guarantees highest possible durability and a healthy food preparation process, since stainless steel does not allow corrosion i.e. penetration of harmful substances to your food from the pan itself. This is, unfortunately, not the case with majority of other Balkan ovens sold on the market.

The pan is 2.36in deep and the lid has a diameter of 19in, meaning you will prepare enough food for 15 people. Cast iron tripod is used to put the plate at just sufficient height from the heat source. Ring is placed on the lid to add the lumps of burned wood on the oven and provide temperature from the upper side. This allows for evenly cooked food. Spatula will help you stir the half burned wood chunks, to add heat. It takes 3 min to set it all up and then you can just chat and wait for your evenly cooked, mouth-watering meal.

In Balkan Sač you can prepare meet with vegetables, or pies and even bread and pizza, preserving originally rich aromas in the process. Meat preparation is the longest and generally takes 3.5 h. But don’t be put off by this long preparation time. It will simply give you time to hang out with your friends and family and build suspense in their curious minds. After all, all the good things in life take time right?
