Let me also say that if you plan to keep your oven in one place, I suggest investing in a cover for when it’s not in use. If you love the ease of gas BBQs, the convenience of the Ooni Koda will probably be right up your street. Our reviewer Helen found this oven got up to heat very quickly, and within 15 to 20 minutes, she could start cooking. Each model was scored against standardised criteria and marked out of five on the following core aspects: overall build quality, performance and cooking results, ease of build, use, safety and value for money.

However, if you enjoy fresh pizza on your camping trips or want to take it to your friends’ BBQ from time to time, make portability a priority.

After two-and-a-half minutes, our 12-inch pizza was hot and bubbling with gooey cheese and lightly browned toppings. All you need are a large cast iron skillet or 13×18 sheet pan; you can use the same toppings as above. Then roll out the dough into a circle about 11 inches in diameter, using just enough flour on each side to keep it from sticking. These are made to sit on top of a gas or charcoal barbecue, and are usually made up of a simple metal box with a pizza stone inside.The most common supreme toppings are pepperoni, sausage, green bell pepper, black olives, and red onions. We tested it with both wood and charcoal and it’s easy to load with fuel and light, although it does take a good 30 minutes to reach a temperature high enough for cooking. Get into the summer mood with one of the best pizza ovens on the market, which we've tested and reviewed at home to make choosing one to spruce up your garden a little more straightforward. Much like the Witt model above, this gas pizza oven comes with a rotating stone to ensure fast, even cooking around the crust and base, without needing to turn by hand. Our reviewers were impressed by the Woody's performance, both in the more labour-intensive wood-fired mode and the comparatively quick and easy gas-fired mode.

Top the dough with tomato sauce, then mozzarella cheese and a load of veggies: spinach, black olives, tomatoes, and red onion. The oven also comes with a heavy round pizza stone that you slot inside the oven to bake the pizzas directly on, plus a long-handled metal pizza peel and a round metal tin to make a deep-dish pizza. Also consider an area that best allows for smooth launching of your pizzas, plus plenty of surface space to both build your pizzas and plate them up once cooked. Some of the larger models we've tested will need to be kept outside in all weathers, in this case, a cover is an absolute must.

We use the same methods, dough, sauce and toppings to prepare and cook each pizza to keep our tests as fair as possible.

This pizza oven is another first of its kind – it can reach 450C internally without being fuelled by wood or gas. A number of the models on this list have easy foldaway legs, meaning they too will take up very little room when not in use.Considered a ‘cleaner’ way of cooking food due to the reduction of smokey taste generated during the cooking process, choosing a gas powered pizza oven could well be right for you, allowing the ingredients of your food to take to the forefront and present themselves in a true to flavour manner, without the risk of hiding them behind a woody smoke taste. After purchasing and being delighted with my Pizza Nevo 16 I decided to purchase the protective cover for it. With the ability to be operated using either wood, charcoal or gas (although the gas burner needs to be bought separately), this oven offers flexibility to suit you, plus potential to cook more than just pizza. The Dome sits somewhere in between, with a modern look that's unlike many of the pizza ovens on the market, and a large enough internal capacity to keep the pizzas flowing.
