Wood Fired Brick Pizza Ovens FAQs
A wood fired brick oven is a specially designed oven that can heat up evenly, retain high temperatures, and cook the perfect pizzas, meats, and more. It is an oven that uses burning wood on the inside to heat up the surfaces. Once it has reached the right temperature, you can cook pizzas in just a few minutes or less. They reach temperatures of 850+ degrees Fahrenheit.
Once you start the fire on the inside, the brick materials start to heat up. A brick wood fired pizza oven can get to temperatures upwards of 850+ degrees without causing damage or compromising the structural integrity of the oven.
