Is A Pizza Oven Worth It?

You can still make delicious tasting pizzas in an oven, or even in an air fryer, but a pizza oven will have the ability to get to a much higher temperature, producing a pizza more like you are used to in your favourite pizzeria.

Whether a pizza oven is worth it will largely depend on how often you eat it! If you enjoy eating al fresco, or have an outdoor kitchen, a pizza oven is a welcome addition. And if you don’t quite trust the great Britsh weather, there are indoor pizza oven options too.

How Much Is A Pizza Oven?

The cost of a pizza oven varies wildly according to the type of material, temperature, size and quality etc. For example, it is possible to buy a pizza oven to use in conjunction with a BBQ for as little as £50, all the way up to £4,000 to £5,000, for commercial pizza ovens.

For a high quality outdoor pizza oven for home use expect to pay about £300.

Types Of Pizza Ovens

There are many different brands of pizza ovens and models, as well as different types of ovens. They generally fall in to the following categories;

BBQ Pizza Oven – these tend to be the cheapest option. Usually, they are a basic metal box with a pizza stone inside that can be placed on top of a BBQ.
Portable Pizza Oven – as the name suggests they can be moved about. Portable pizza ovens can be wood-fired or gas-fired. These types of pizza ovens are the most popular and produce better results than BBQ pizza ovens.
Build Your Own Pizza Oven Kits – these are more permanent brick and cement ovens that can come as a kit, or customised to the specification you prefer. Owing to the cost of these types of pizza ovens they are more for pizza enthusiasts and for those that love to cook outdoors more often than not. These types of pizza ovens are more like the type you would expect to see in a restaurant. Also, remember you can cook more than pizza in a pizza oven!
