Pizza has been a popular food since the 18th century when the people of Naples began adding tomato to flat bread. Since then pizza has become a well love food in most homes and a pizza oven has become the perfect addition to a BBQ or outdoor area. There are several pizza oven types that we thought we'd share with you in case you're thinking of getting one for your kitchen!
Conveyor oven
Typically bought for commercial use as they cook pizzas nice and fast and push them out in an orderly fashion which makes them suitable for restaurant owners. They're generally much larger than other pizza oven types.
Wood-burning oven
Our personal favourite! Pizza cooked in a wood-burning oven gives pizza that authentic, rustic, smoky taste that you can't seem to get from electric oven. These ovens contain wood or coal heated at high temperatures (around 1000 degrees) The oven is built in a dome shape which reflects and intensifies the heat. These ovens can be small or large.
Pizza deck oven
These ovens contain racks that can cook multiple pizzas at once. Because of this feature these ovens are also often used in restaurants, however mini pizza deck ovens can also be bought.
Convection oven
These are commercial or residential and are usually pretty cheap to run. They can be electric or run with gas. They tend to be a lot more energy and cost effective that some of the other ovens.
Countertop oven
These small ovens are perfect for the home as they are small and easy to store away.
