A composite material includes a plurality of continuous graphite fiber strands, bundles, or other such fiber configurations disposed within a hardened ceramic matrix. The continuous graphite fiber strands are preferably covered or "pegged" with a ceramic slurry (e.g., a porcelain ceramic slurry), attached to a pre-formed foundation, then fired to produce a fiber-enhanced ceramic structure. In this way, a may be efficiently fabricated for use in applications requiring high-strength materials capable of withstanding temperature extremes.
