It’s not unusual these days to see a wood fired oven for sale online, but do you really know what you’re getting? Now
that home pizza ovens are popular, you see them for sale everywhere.
Some are authentic but many are not. Some are
wood fired, as they should be, others are powered by different means. Some of
are made of clay, others of metal. Some are even sold in kit form and you have
to build it yourself!
Deciding which one to buy depends on a few
different factors. Where are you going to put it? How many people will you be
feeding? Will you use it regularly? And, of course, how much do you want to
spend?
If you have the space and the budget, I
recommend getting yourself a full-sized traditional-style pizza oven. You will
see some made here in Australia, but the best ones are imported from Portugal
via Australian suppliers, such as My Wood Fired Oven.

If, however, you only have a small
courtyard or a balcony, you would probably do better with a portable wood fired
oven. If you go down this path, however, be sure to choose a true pizza oven.
In other words, look for one that is genuinely wood-fired, dome-shaped in
design and uses refractory floor bricks to retain heat.
You should also think about what you’ll be
using the oven for. Whilst most people buy them initially as pizza ovens, they
quickly discover that wood fired ovens can be used for a wide range of dishes,
including roasts, gratins, bakes and bread.
In fact, when you taste the difference
between wood-fired and conventionally cooked food, you’ll be hooked. Not only
is it delicious, but it’s also better for you as the vitamins and nutrients are
better preserved.
Wood fired ovens for sale in Australia aren’t as
expensive as you may think so why not take a look.
