Pizza oven

Another option is the La Hacienda Firebox BBQ Pizza oven. This will turn your existing gas or charcoal barbecue into a pizza oven in no time at all. All you have to do is place the firebox on the grill of the barbecue and then it will heat up quickly thanks to its steel housing and stone baking chamber. The Firebox BBQ Pizza oven is also suitable for other dishes than pizzas, making it a very functional addition to your traditional BBQ.

How long do you need to preheat the oven for a pizza?

For preheating a wood-fired pizza oven, several steps are required:

1. Starting the fire: Begin by lighting a small fire in the center of the oven. Use small, dry pieces of wood to create a base fire and gradually add larger pieces of wood to build the fire. This helps to heat the oven evenly.
2. Reaching the right temperature: A wood-fired pizza oven needs to be preheated to a temperature of about 370 to 400 degrees Celsius (700 to 750 degrees Fahrenheit). This process can take 1 to 2 hours, depending on the size and type of oven.
3. Moving the wood and coals: When the oven has reached the right temperature, move the wood and coals to the side or back of the oven. This ensures an even heat distribution and prevents the pizza from coming into direct contact with the flames.
4. Checking the temperature: Finally, it's important to use an infrared thermometer to check the temperature of the oven floor. The floor should be about 315 to 345 degrees Celsius (600 to 650 degrees Fahrenheit) for baking a pizza.

If you are using a pizza stone or steel baking sheet, make sure it is also fully preheated. Place it in the oven during preheating; this helps with even baking of the pizza and ensures a crispy crust.

Are there extra accessories available to enhance the cooking experience in the pizza oven?

A pizza oven is, of course, not complete without the necessary accessories. For example, an original pizza spatula, which allows you to safely and effortlessly remove the pizza from the oven. With the pizza serving board and pizza wheel, you can stylishly present the pizzas in delicious portions. The pizza stone retains heat, which ensures that moisture quickly evaporates from the dough. This results in a crispy crust without drying out the sauce.
