Has anyone had experience with these ooni pizza ovens. I want to get into the pizza game but I’ve never had a good pizza made in a standard oven. Was thinking about getting one of these so I can stop paying the pizza jew.

never tried it, a friend built his own stone oven, don´t know the price but it does make for a good conversation to politely complimenting the host for his ´za

I want something portable that I can take with me to the family cabin and I don’t plan on staying in my current house for more than another couple years but maybe down the line I would consider making my own.

I just use a cast iron pan and my oven, comes out great, just cook the dough a little bit with oil on it before I add toppings

then try it if you can afford it and post results, seems like an interesting venture

there was an anon who posted a pizza he made in an oven like that a couple weeks back, looked pretty good. Unfortunately his sister's ass was on the pic so the thread was mostly about that

I got one of these recently. Pretty damn good. You've got to know how to make your pizza though. If you are relatively new to genuine pizza making then your first few will be shit and probably burnt to fuck.

>I’ve never had a good pizza made in a standard oven.
i have an actual wood burning oven that i built and i still love pizza from my regular oven with a pizza stone. if you cant make a good pizza in a standard oven you wont be able to in a wood burning oven either

[Anonymous No.16491350]

Does your oven have a self-cleaning mode? I've heard of that being used as a hack for cooking pizza. Might burn your house down though.

Got exactly that model, it's great.
Makes really good pizza but there's one drawback.

It's best to be used on warm spring / summer days as you don't want to bake pizza's in the rain or cold.

I went down the rabbit hole, it seems gas is the best option, as wood takes much longer to heat up, the two brands i would consider are ooni and gozney.

They’re all About the same size it really seems to be a matter of preference unless you need the biggest one which is the ooni 16, from what I’ve seen and videos online the people who make The best looking stuff usually use the Gozney stuff.

If I was a lot more into pizza maybe. but at these prices I wouldn't want something like this I'd only use once in a while

I won that exact model and it works great, has the texture and taste of a real wood fired pizza. Would highly recommend.

I've mostly heard good things about Ooni's

pros:
>gets really hot, makes beautiful charred crust
>compact and easily moved around
>multiple fuel options
>affordable

cons:
>heat not even, you need to rotate the pie during cooking

[Anonymous No.16492611]

Just do it in the BBQ.

don't you have to do that in any wood oven?

Making your own clay oven is easy as hell, but ooni ovens are more convenient.

[Anonymous No.16492685]

>>16491193
I suggest you just figure out how to make it work with your oven. I've managed to make surprisingly good pizza in my dinky toaster oven that barely does 450F. I either transfer the pizza from a regular sheet to one of these perforated sheets as soon as the dough is cooked enough to handle the transfer, or start the pizza off by pan frying it in lard on the stove to make more of a crispy deep dish pizza.

you mean a pizza oven or that specific brand? i don't think the brand matters as much as you might think.

Made pizza in a regular weber gas grill recently. Just placed a pizza stone in the grill, heated it up, and added the pizza. Worked great, got leoparding on the underside, but no char on the top crust though. The grill reaches temperatures of 600 F / 315 C which is much hotter than a regular home oven.

You will spend the same amount of money and even more time by building your own. High heat food grade brick is expensive and you have to source it from a professional who isn't going to sell it to you at cost.

Not entirely sure why a pizza oven company needs software engineers, but I was unemployed during peak covid so I wasn't going to ask questions

You could just get a kettle grill and cook your pizza over charcoal. Much easier, way more functional and charcoal makes the best pizza.

You’re going to make fun of me but I’m in a very urban area and the city doesn’t allow open fires and my neighbors are cunts who would rat me out to the fire department.

I know the guy who made the Ooni, we're originally from the same town. The product is great and works very well but the price is ridiculous.
