A few weeks ago, I pulled the trigger on buying a 70x70 Pizza Party wood fired oven. After a roundabout way of getting to me (FedEx lost it and ended up sending it around the world and back!), I finally got to cook my first pizzas in it. I didn't get a chance to bring the dough up to room temp before cooking them, so I had some bubbles forming/burning in the crust, but all in all they turned alright for a first run! The oven is a slick piece gear. It is super easy to use and is a lot of fun!! I'm excited to fire it up again!!

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
Took ~2 minutes at 700 degrees. I was using large pieces of wood, and only let it heat up for half an hour, so I didn't have a good coal bed to generate a lot of heat. If I had let it burn longer before cooking, or used smaller pieces of wood, it definitely would have gotten hotter. I picked up a kindling cracker for next time, so I can keep a short ramp time while generating a nice bed of coals.

I really want to get one of those. Because PIZZA! Except I think I would go wood fired. Not 100% on the wood thing because gas would be more convenient.
but yea. I REALLY want a pizza oven like that. Enjoy it! I know I would
EDIT: under $200 (shipping seems to be $100, almost as much as the thing costs) for a wood fired pizza oven??? Tempting!! Thanks for the lead! Always thought these things cost more. It’s now on "the list"!!

Uuni Pro. About $600, quad fuel: wood, charcoal, pellet, gas. But some of those additional fuel attachments will cost you $30-40 apiece. https://uuni.net/
Firing up my italia pizza oven right now. I have the topper to my camp chef stove. forgot to make crust as I have been prepping for my team BBQ all week, so I had to grab some of that store bought stuff in the bag. Hope it is decent. Got the homestyle as opposed to the artisan. Figure I can stretch the dough and get 2 or maybe 3 pies out of it. Also found out that the local FRESH by Brookshires pizzeria department will sell me pre-proofed dough. One problem, it is $3 for enough to make one medium pie... I'll try it, but it better be good. That oven of yours looks like a beast. I just enjoy the convenience of firing up the gas and having it rolling anywhere between 300 and over 1,000 in about 30-45 minutes.
It is a little more work to get the wood fire going and maintain it. It comes up to temp in the 30-45 minute range, but you need to babysit it and feed it wood to keep it rolling. I suppose it is just the stickburner equivalent pizza oven. It is a beast though! Hope your pies turned out well!!
Love that oven and glad to see your positive experience with it. Have been eyeing a Pizza Party oven for over a year. One of these days I’ll pull the trigger.
Did you get the saputo tiles? Any other accessories you bought and recommend?
I didn't upgrade the tiles. I got the upgraded door and the aluminum cart. I would definitely upgrade to the glass door. It would be tough not being able to see the pizza cooking. The cart is nice too, but is more dependent on where you're putting it. If you're a forum member at pizzmaking.com, PM Pizza Party for a coupon code for a free upgrade and gift.
