Product Information

On the other hand, hardwood and charcoal models offer a short window of time for adding more fuel once the oven is at the perfect pizza-baking temperature. Or, if you want to give it a good once-over from time to time, wipe out the chimney pipe with a dry rag or some paper towels—but you should understand that this is a dirty job, and not at all necessary. The Gozney Roccbox is a compact, propane-fueled pizza oven that gets super hot and bakes great pizza.

And since it runs on electricity—not on propane or wood pellets, like our outdoor picks—you can crank out as many pizzas as you want without fear of running out of fuel. This wasn’t because I was playing favorites; I just had it for a month before the other ovens arrived, and I was eager to start using it. If you’re concerned about cost, or if you aren’t sure whether a wood-pellet oven is right for you, the propane-burning Ooni Koda 12 is similar in size to the Fyra and costs just 50 bucks more.Budget: start by setting your budget – but know that more money does not always mean a better pizza.

Then, the manual instructed me to place one “all-natural firestarter” on top of the pellets and ignite with a lighter. A tiny cast-iron pan will work here, but you’ll need to pull it out and rotate the food inside the pan rather than turning the pan itself since the handle of the skillet will stick out of the oven; Ooni sidesteps this problem by selling its own cast-iron skillet that features a removable handle.

One of the most versatile foods around, pizza offers huge scope for personalisation, depending on taste and dietary requirements. The first time we encountered this, we thought the cold, February-air-chilled pellets were the culprit, but the hopper also jammed up the next time, when the pellets were at room temperature. Remove the stone and wipe it down with a dry rag, then brush or wipe away all the stray bits at the bottom of the oven. Though we’d be hard pressed to praise them more than that, as plastic and polystyrene were still used in abundance.
