I'd love a pizza oven. That looks extremely appetising.

Is your oven wood fired?

Gas. Don’t bother with wood unless you’re having a big brick thing built and plan on cooking hundreds of pizzas a night.

If you get your oven up to the right temp it’s cooking a pizza in about 60 seconds so you’re not getting any woodsmoke flavour in that short time, and it’s a whole load of faff keeping it lit. Gas you just light and go.

Would recommend a roccbox, specially now they’ve slashed the price and priced it competitively vs the tin can ooni’s, it’s a much better and more substantial oven. Twice as thick a stone, far more insulation. It will eat pizza after pizza all night long and use less gas doing it.

Prosciutto, nduja and red chilli. Unfortunately no fresh basil to garnish. Nice Italian IPA to wash it down.

Looks great, but with no or very little cheese it looks more like a big round bruschetta!

There was loads of cheese on it, mozzarella and cheddar, it’s all cut from a block though so it melts out from big lumps rather than an even spread.

Or get the Gozney dome dual fuel and have the best of both worlds.

I know what you’re saying but I got a great deal on an Aldi wood fired stainless steel one like the photo, which is brilliant.
Not quick but once hot it keeps hot well so whilst it isn’t really worth it for 2 if you’ve got even just a few people round it works well

Are these gas pizza ovens just for outdoor use only or indoor as well?
