Off to bake sourdough in a WFO

Made a sourdough starter using the pineapple method a week ago. It has been doubling for the past few days. Got the text this evening that my friend was starting to fire his cobb oven and would be ready to bake later tonite. So, I mixed up a batch of the tartine bread and pulled out my bannetons. Going to bake some real bread tonite.

if there is such a thing.   But if there is, I would think the basic minimum, that cannot be substituted in my book,   is to bake it in a WFO!  Can't wait to see it.
