What’s that insert? I’m looking at a concrete bbq. About 1.2 wide by 400ish. Mostly for rotisserie. But want some sort of pizza oven insert for it. Is that the Weber one?

Would it handle 400C sitting over a wood fire?

No idea but the bottom of your pizza would be burnt to hell.

The Italian pizza ovens run at 400-450C, takes 90 seconds to cook a pizza. I’m trying to replicate that without building a wood fired oven, as I’m renting.

@Kiwifruta if you're keen, there's always one if these }:‑) https://www.noelleeming.co.nz/shop/whiteware-kitchen-appliances/kitchen-whiteware-and-white-appliances/ovens/benchtop-ovens/breville-bpz820bss-the-smart-oven-pizzaiolo/prod193607.html

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

They run at that temp but the fire is on the side not directly under the pizza. It's a bit more forgiving as there is less direct heat than a fire directly underneath the base

That looks really good. Thanks. Something to save for.
I usually crank the oven up to maximum, but that’s only 280C.

If you want something dedicated then the ooni fyra is probably with looking at as well.

Apparently, they're rather good. A mate in Scotland has one, but not sure which variant.

I've only seen YouTube reviews which were positive with a few caveats.

At least it gets the fire to the side rather than below the pizza.

The problem with fire underneath the firebox is too much direct very intense heat. I'm going to play around with using more charcoal and not using wood to see if I can get it hotter without burning the bottom of the crust too much.

In the end it's a simulation of a pizza oven rather than the real thing but the learning process is the fun bit for me.

Ooni are well-reviewed by people I absolutely trust, namely Kenji Alt-Lopez. He has a few videos where he talks about them, and some others he highly rates.
