Tonight for dinner I did Turkish Pide in the Ooni pizza oven.

So tasty!

first time I've tried to do pide in a pizza oven and it was most excellent.

I really need to get stuck into the 50-60 things that need to be done before I get to the point where I can think about building a pizza oven out back. :awesome:

In the meantime, I can highly recommend the Ooni Karu 12, as a fast, portable solution.

I love my big pizza oven that I built, but 3-4hrs heating time means planning. The Ooni is hot in 20mins.

Greetings from the subtropics David. I have been eyeballing the Ooni ovens for a while. Which one do you have? Any pros and cons would be helpful. I currently use three methods for pizza, the oven with a stone, the oven with a cast iron pan for deep dish style and a Weber Performer charcoal grill. Caramelized onions and mushrooms pictured.

i have the Karu 12 multfuel (charcoal, wood and gas).

Gas is super quick and easy, but wood gives the most traditional flavour, and takes a little more skill for temperature regulation.

I find the 12 big enough for me, since I have a large brick oven in the backyard if I need bigger.

Thanks for insight. I would be using wood or charcoal. Maybe Santa will bring me one. Concentrating on moving from South Florida to Central Florida in the next several months.
in reply to Bob

the wood/charcoal only version is definitely cheaper πŸ˜€
