Although pizza originated in Italy, it’s arguably become a global favorite. Whether you vote for Chicago-style or prefer New York crust, making pizza at home means you can go thick or thin, choose your favorite ingredients, easily cater to dietary needs, and produce your ideal pie. But the summer months often mean sacrificing pizza night in favor of avoiding added heat to the kitchen. Solve this dilemma by moving pizza making outdoors with a pizza oven suitable for multi-season use. Although you can simply buy a countertop appliance to place in your outdoor kitchen, if you want rustic, authentic wood-fired results, build a permanent pizza oven instead. A backyard fire-fueled pizza oven provides the ideal space for entertaining and leveling up summer grilling. Plus, while pizza may take center stage, an outdoor oven is just that, meaning it can also be a valuable tool for anything you want to bake outdoors during hot summer days.
