Yup, I know Mom. :-)

Where in Ont are you? My hometown is TO and raised kids in London.

 

Oh cool. I'm in London, I've been stuck here for 56 years unfortunately

 

My parents live kinda near you. In the thriving metropolis of Elmira

 

Yeah that is like 2 hours from me ? I've never been there, but heard of that place as they have some kind of stoveworks place and a leather outlet if I recall.

 

Ha! Cool. I lived in London for 20 years - worked for Bell - and moved to California 25 years ago.

Cher… why did I think you were from Barrie?

 

 

GLUE

hey Paisan I need to chat with you about Pizza Ovens since you have like 18 been pondering one which would be an outside one like atop the BBQ Island but wood or gas has me ing ?? If you have time remind me of yours as I forget which tread they're in

 

Hey no problem little WOP buddy.

I got the Gozney RoccBox, it is well made and portable. I have to do the propane powered versions as I just don't have the patience to burn wood. Gas is cleaner and quicker and it has been bullet proof in 2 years of use. With most ovens you can get them as multi-fuel (wood pellets and gas). I have been very happy with mine. Sometimes you can find them on sale with some accessories tossed in. They have some good pricing on right now. I have posted a pic of mine below of the Roccbox. They have larger models if you want to spend more too. The Gozney Dome is very cool but I didn't want to spend that much, but it is awesome for a larger sized oven that is more permanent in terms of installation. The Roccbox has been good for us and is still portable. I wish I got the carry bag with it to transport it around. I take it outside to use it, then we bring it in as I don't have a covered area in my yard. See Gozney link below.

Ooni also has some nice ovens , and there are some other manufacturers out there with good designs too, it depends on how much you want to spend if how portable you want them. I had the Ooni Koda 12 but found it a bit small, it was a good introductory oven but the Ooni 16 is a better way to go for size, and they also have the multi-fuel versions which are a nice size but more pricey.

This is mine: Gozney Roccbox.

 

WOP WOP Paisan Dago all works for me

Ok now I remember, I was thinking you had an Ooni
So I was looking at Ooni but yesterday ran down to the desert where C-6 got his 2nd built into the island gas grill they have nice stuff and I remembered seeing some there. They are ALFA 's



looked @ this ONE [ pun intended ] I really like the look of them.
Wood is less $ than Gas / Propane I'm not huge on smoke taste in meat anyways butt maybe on pizza it would be ok C-6 has a Traeger and a Green Egg so we do produce smoke at times neighbors don't seem to mind.
1 factor is I'm gonna wanna take it with when we move someday so not wanting a hUge one.

Tanks for the info & I'll letcha know if we pull the trigger

 

Gina, that looks awesome, very nice, made in Italy too. I love it. It is much more high-end that I have ever owned but I'd love one. I had one Ooni but the Gozney Roccbox is my current on. The Gozney is super portable , I take it in an out on every use, and you can even take it to the park or beach or camping easily.

I just don't want to mess with wood and the ash to clean up, and ash can go into the food, plus I don't need smoke flavour on my food. The key to the wood oven pizzas is the heat generated to cook pizza a certain way very quickly - 90 seconds or so. The wood itself doesnt do much more than that, as long as the heat is there, and the propane versions will generate the heat. A hybrid version can use wood and propane, I have been happy with the propane powered versions.

That looks like a great oven, I have no idea of the price , I like the Nano version they offer, it seems like a nice size. Gozney offers a dome version of outdoor pizza oven which may be around $1,900 , that is pretty good quality, but the Alfas are super nice. I'd love one.
