Preparation
This Father’s Day, help Dad expand his culinary horizons beyond grilling by gifting him a pizza oven. They reach super hot temperatures like a traditional wood-fired oven but are easier to use, take up much less space, and come to temperature much faster. This means he’ll be able to whip up a pizza with bubbly hot cheese and a perfectly charred crust in just a few minutes. Pizza ovens are also good for cooking other things that benefit from high heat, like marinated meats and bread. To help jump-start your search, we’ve highlighted some standout options below that would make a perfect gift for any dad who loves pizza, appliances, or trying new things.
Pizza ovens come in numerous shapes, sizes, and price points. There are indoor pizza ovens that can be plugged in on the countertop or placed over the stove as well as outdoor pizza ovens powered by gas. Portable pizza ovens that have foldable legs and are great for taking to campsites and tailgates; larger ovens are perfect for those who want to make bigger pizzas. Higher-end pizza ovens reach higher temperatures and cook pizza faster, but they come with a steeper price tag. More affordable pizza ovens may not heat up as fast, but they still heat up faster and hotter than the average oven. All of this is to say that you have a lot of options, so there’s a lot to consider when looking for the perfect pizza oven to give your dad this Father’s Day. To help you on your search, we’re sharing our favorite options in a variety of categories.
