Every Budget Pizza Ovens
Wood burning pizza ovens are quick, simple, and effective devices that date back to the ancient Roman Empire. Made from refractory clay or firebrick, both materials commonly used due to their ability to withstand intense heat, the ovens were very humble in design and practical as appliances. The clay and firebrick were often abundantly available and cheap, so traditional wood burning pizza ovens became a staple. Today, they are coming back into prominence due to their simplicity. A fire is all that is needed, and one can manipulate that fire to create all manner of food besides pizza. Families are returning to the once familiar and simple goodness of a wood burning pizza oven to create pizza, meat, breads, and more.
Contemporary wood burning ovens can be installed indoors in one's kitchen or outdoors on the patio like a charcoal barbecue grill. They can be constructed as small and compact units, or come large enough to feed a family of four. Some of the oven domes are built small enough just for one pizza, and this may be sufficient for those seeking the traditional Sicilian pizza pie. As long as the ovens are well-insulated, this size will suffice. However, for more robust baking, it is advisable to add at least two inches or more of brick around the outer dome. This casing intensifies the interior heat energy, allowing one to roast and bake nearly anything, and at one's own pace. You can bake a pizza in 90 seconds or slow cook a shank all day. In fact, wood burning pizza ovens often seen in pizzerias and restaurants can become intensely hot due to the burning firewood, and these ovens can maintain the high temperatures far more efficiently and with less cost than other types of appliances. When we walk into a modern pizzeria and see a fire inside the wood burning pizza ovens, the scent and heat from the firewood not only create a more authentic ambience, but the embers cook a perfect pizza every time.
At home, wood burning ovens are easily crafted in a number of sizes. They are great projects for the handy man or woman due to their simple design and the fact that one can more or less build to his or her own specifications. Costs, too, vary considerably depending upon many factors, including the layers of insulation required for the type of baking desired.
