What you can cook in a pizza oven
You can cook almost anything in a wood-fired pizza oven.
Thanks to their high heat, they're a versatile cooking appliance that can handle almost anything you would normally bake, roast, BBQ or grill.
Here are just a few ideas:
Roasted vegetables: Pick up any fresh vegetables (we like peppers, onions or portobello mushrooms). Coat the veggies in oil, sprinkle some salt and toss onto a basic drip pan or baking sheet.
Slow cooked meats: Think hamburgers, steak, brats, chicken, salmon or other fish. Prep your meat, then place it on an elevated grilling rack over the coals and close the door.
Fresh made bread: Prep your favorite recipe (or buy a pre-made one from the store). Place it in the hot oven, and get ready for fresh- baked bread that can't be beat. Sourdough, ciabatta and rolls are especially tasty.
Lasagna and other pastas: No surprise here: The Italian-made pizza oven is great for pasta, too. Just place your pasta in a cast iron or oven-safe baking dish.
Roasted potatoes: The trick is to parboil your potatoes for about 10 minutes in salted water. Then add any spices or seasonings and toss into a pan inside the pizza oven. You'll end up with the perfect crisp on the outside but soft on the inside.
Flatbreads: Keep it simple with a little butter, olive oil, or a flavorful herb-packed butter, or go all out and top it like a pizza.
Cinnamon rolls: As you prep the dough, let a cast-iron skillet warm up for a few minutes inside the oven. Take it out and melt a Tablespoon of butter in the warmed skillet. Add your dough to the skillet, then bake until the cinnamon rolls are puffed up and golden perfection.
Grilled bananas: Yes, desserts work, too! Here's one you might already have the ingredients for: Scoop 2 Tablespoons each of butter and honey into a pan. Let that melt in the grill first. Then slice bananas the long way, brush with the melted butter and grill until they start to turn golden.
For extra fun: Drizzle with salted caramel and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
