La Hacienda Firebox BBQ Pizza Oven, Silver, 56216

Product Information

In our tests, fresh dough made by hand and by a local pizzeria cooked in about four minutes, coming out with a nice, puffy crust, and with just as much charring on the crust as the open-flame versions. Store-bought dough (both refrigerated and frozen/thawed) burned on the outside but remained chewy and somewhat uncooked on the inside — a cooking issue with all of the ovens we tried, not just the BakerStone. Overall, the pizzas were just as good as those we made with the Ooni and Roccbox, although they took a few more minutes to finish. BakerStone Portable Gas Series Pizza Oven Box review: Verdict Medium-duty: This grade is used to line low-temperature ceramic kilns and chimneys and contain 34-38% alumina. They withstand temperatures up to 1482ºC (2700ºF). The pizza oven does have its own downsides like heat loss and takes time to cook pizzas, the Bakerstone Pizza Oven box is a better alternative altogether if you are looking for a pizza oven attachment for your grill. Key specs – Dimensions: 47 x 53 x 41cm (WDH); Weight: 20kg; Fuel type: Wood, gas; Portable: Yes; Max pizza size: 12in The traditional and most popular type. They require the most patience and skill, as they usually take longer to get up to temperature than gas, and need almost constant attention to get the flames to the right size and consistency.

However, in terms of build quality and professional looks, for us, the Ooni Fyra just steals the show. As long as you have the time and patience to invest in the authentic wood-fired pizza-making experience, this option could be the fit for you. If you're still undecided on which oven to buy from the brand, we've covered the subject in more depth in our rundown of which Ooni pizza oven to buy. Pairing great aesthetics with impressive functionality and performance, the Etna Fermo is one of our current favourite pizza ovens.

Who is this for?

So, if you want a Neopolitan style pizza then you should surely take a look at the Firebox Pizza Oven. If you already own a BBQ grill or are planning on getting one along with a pizza oven then this is a perfect addition. You do not need to get a separate pizza oven altogether and can easily use this with your existing BBQ grill. Many of us love a barbecue. We enjoy cooking outside because it means that we don't have to miss a minute of the sun, which can seem like a rarity in the UK, and it also means that we can entertain friends and family outdoors while preparing great tasting food for them. There is a huge array of different barbecue and grill models that are designed for use outdoors, and with the right accessories it is possible to create a more expansive selection of food. The largest of Ooni's multi-fuel pizza ovens, the Ooni Karu 16 Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven is an investment, but as long as your budget will stretch, we think it's worth it.

The brand that put portable pizza ovens on the map lives up to its name with outstanding performance The Koda is a star buy for those who want to create authentic pizzas without the faff of keeping a fire going, as you would need to in the Fyra. If you love the ease of gas BBQs, the convenience of the Ooni Koda will probably be right up your street. Cost aside, we loved using this oven to cook pizzas in our at-home, each of which came out perfectly. Other foods that went down a storm included steaks and roasted vegetables such as sweetcorn. It's a pricey buy, but if you're looking for an upgrade on your existing oven, the Gozney Dome is the oven you'll want. This oven is really useful for those who already own a Grill or are planning to get one which could help them cook pizzas as well.

Analysis and Test Results

We've extensively reviewed every single one of the pizza ovens in this guide, as part of our commitment to how we test products at Ideal Home. And when we say we've tested them, we don't mean we've just tried them out once - we have these ovens at home for a timescale of two weeks to two months before we come to a verdict. Enjoy pizza anywhere and any way you want it with this transportable oven. Handmade in Yorkshire, it’s one of the most beautiful ovens out there. When we put this pizza oven to the test it impressed us with its beautiful exterior and sturdy design. Heating the oven was easy, we just made a jenga-style tower of wood and lit it before leaving it for about half an hour to come to the desired temperature of 450°C. The Firebox is one such accessory that allows you to cook pizzas without having to buy a dedicated pizza oven. The barbecue reaches very high temperatures, which are actually ideally suited to cooking pizza, but the uneven temperatures that are often experienced within the grill, and the uneven surface of the griddle mean that you will not be able to prepare a pizza on a standard barbecue surface. A pizza oven like the Firebox makes this possible. See our full test results below, along with expert advice to help you on your journey to becoming a 'pizzaiolo' at home. The best pizza ovens
