Process shots: roll out dough and add to lightly floured pizza tray (photo 1), spread over BBQ sauce (photo 2), add cheese (photo 3), add toppings (photo 4). Material – Most pizza ovens are made from steel or stainless steel. This material is a great heat conductor and proves to achieve an even cook or bake with your food. Thermometer – It’s quite essential that you can get your equipment with a built-in thermometer. This will help you monitor temperature and time your cooking accordingly. Sustainably sourced wood logs are available. Where possible, we'd suggest buying these for a reduced environmental impact. Charcoal pizza ovens Remove the dough from the mixer, and place it on a surface to rest for 2 hours at room temperature. Then cut the mixture into small balls or ‘panetti’, weighing between 170 and 230 g each.

We select the UK's bestselling pizza ovens and have cooked more than 80 pizzas to find out which are the easiest to use and which cook the best food. You'll also likely find that a BBQ pizza oven is a slower cook than other oven types. It won't cook pizzas in 90 seconds flat like some freestanding ovens do, and because the heat source is below the pizza stone, the stone is often much hotter than the rest of the oven. Our ovens are versatile, fun and really easy to use, making it ideal to transport to outdoor events such as camping, days out, festivals and parties. When getting the flames going, heating the oven to temperature and cooking pizzas, we note any design elements or features that impact our cooking experience. Time to reach cooking temperature Safety: Pizzas require incredibly high temperatures to cook so we looked for excellent insulation and safety features to make using the pizza oven easy to use.

Things to Consider When Buying a BBQ Pizza Oven

It adds plenty of extra flavour and can help to bring a slow-burning stability to the heat the oven, but charcoal burns so slowly that you can’t easily top up the fire with more of it when the heat dies down, so it shouldn't be used on its own. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the oil in a saucepan over a very low heat, add the garlic and chilli flakes and cook gently for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, sugar and salt and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and leave to cool.

Smoky– Where there’s BBQ, there’s gotta be a smoky twang of flavour. Here we inject smokiness, without the pizza going near a smoker! The oven is generally placed on top of the barbecue, once it’s lit, and then left to heat up. These devices tend to be sturdy and will fit comfortably on top of your barbecue. They tend to take around 10 minutes to heat up properly. The materials they are often made of are designed to insulate the heat effectively, whilst circulating air appropriately. You could easily use half the cheese in this recipe to lighten it up a little. If you are doing that, then it is even more important to use a mature cheddar, as it has a stronger flavour. Variations

Prepare the barbecue for high heat 280–290°C and place the GBS pizza stone into the cooking grate to preheat for 15–20 minutes. Pizza ovens are often billed as portable, so we weigh them and carry them a short distance, taking bulkiness and comfort into account. Pizza stone These are the cooking surface and are usually made from moisture-absorbent cordierite. They're fantastic for retaining heat and are key for crisping up the base of your pizza. Most ovens come with a pizza stone included. Set a pizza stone or heavy baking tray on the grill, close the lid and open the vents as wide as possible. Dust the work surface with semolina, turn the dough out and divide into four equal balls. Roll each out thinly to make a large round base, then spread with the cooled tomato sauce. Tear the mozarella into small pieces and dot over the sauce, then add the remaining toppings evenly.

Portable wood fired oven has been designed with ceramic insulation to maintain temperature evenly throughout the cooking process. They heat up in as little as 10 minutes and reaches temperatures of over 400°C. Perfect for pizzas, roasts, baking and searing. Guaranteed authentic wood fired flavour with every bite! Sprinkle the Pizza Paddle with a little flour to make the surface more slippery. Using the Pizza Paddle, slide the pizza onto the pizza stone and close the lid of the barbecue. Cook the pizza over indirect heat until the base is crispy.

Like all products, there are certain features to look for and consider when looking to buy one of these BBQ add-ons. I narrowed it down to the top factors to consider for the best experience with your new appliance. Vegetables - Pizza is always a good opportunity to get some extra vegetables in. They can then easily be hidden under the cheese. We used onions and shiitake mushrooms for this, but there are loads of other vegetables that would work. Courgette (zucchini), sweetcorn, bell peppers, jalapenos or even pineapple (controversial I know).

In each pizza oven, we cook three of the most popular types of pizza – margherita, pepperoni and veggie – to see what results we get when cooking with a variety of textures and flavours. Bake for 14–15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro, if desired. Storage: consider the space you have available. The smallest pizza ovens we've tested are the BBQ-top models, which thanks to their small, boxy size, can easily be stored in a garage, shed or even inside somewhere. A number of the models on this list have easy foldaway legs, meaning they too will take up very little room when not in use. Some of the larger models we've tested will need to be kept outside in all weathers, in this case, a cover is an absolute must. The oven is super easy to light. All you need is a natural firelighter and either kiln dried hardwood OR pizza oven pellets. Our user guide shows you how to get your oven safely and efficiently once lit. Size - L76cm x W35cm x H77cm Pizza cutter A good pizza cutter is key for slicing up and serving your pizza. The larger the circular blade, the better. This prevents the pizza cutter from moving your toppings around and makes it easier to cut through extra-puffy pizza crusts.

Comments

First, you should compare the dimensions of the oven you're interested in with the size of your barbecue – you won't get far if your grill isn't big enough for the oven to sit snugly. Cheese - We used a mixture of cheddar and mozzarella. Use an extra mature cheddar, as the stronger flavour means you can use less of it, making it a lower in calories pizza.
