I’ve recently been reviewing some of the best pizza ovens and was amazed at how versatile they are. Contrary to what’s suggested by the name, these fiercely hot outdoor ovens are not just for pizza, they can be used to create all sorts of tasty dishes. So if you’re thinking of getting a pizza oven, or if you have one that you’ve only ever used for pizza, take note.

First though, don’t start throwing food directly onto your pizza stone. Most foods work best when cooked in a cast iron skillet or on a sturdy tray. You wouldn’t want your pizza stone to become saturated with meat fats, what’s more, smaller foods like vegetables would be too tricky to handle if not contained.
