The Spectacle of Wood Burning Ovens

We spend a lot of time here talking about how great wood burning ovens are for cooking pizza and traditional Italian dishes, but what sometimes gets left behind is how excited people are to watch the workings of a wood-fired oven. Most people simply don’t have experience cooking with fire unless they are frequent campers or own a wood burning stove of their own. Cooking with a wood fire is a completely different experience than cooking with gas or coal, and the process will have people looking on in awe.

Cooking with fire is a spectacle that the whole family can appreciate. From the first phase of lighting the wood to the bubbling cheese and crust of a finishing pizza, cooking with fire is an instinctive craving that exists in all of us. Not only will your wood burning oven produce terrific results in flavor and texture, but it will be wonderful to look at in the process. Half the appeal of cooking at home comes from the aromas and sounds that result from cooking with fire. Family and friends gathering around the wood-fired stove is one of the most appealing parts of cooking with fire, and the buzz generated from the spectacle will liven up the atmosphere more than any takeout food could.
