contractorPizzas are the favorite of many, especially kids and teenagers who are known to be picky about the food they eat.

Types of Backyard Pizza Oven
In line with this innovation in the pizza-making process, more and more types of backyard pizza ovens have become popular, too. To choose the right one for your own space outside, start by making yourself more familiar with brick, gas/charcoal, and wood-fired.
Wood-fired Pizza Oven
This type may be traditional or old-style, but it’s definitely still in-demand for pizza lovers because of its benefits, such as the following:
- Brings personal satisfaction to owners.
- Allows high temperature fast and easy.
- Brings that nice aroma of wood.
- Best for a cooking show to wow family and guests.
- Can last longer through time with proper maintenance and cleanup.
Gas/charcoal Pizza Oven
For the more affordable and more modest way of baking your delightful pizza outdoors, a gas/charcoal oven is the best choice. This kind of oven comes with other varieties like tabletop models to types that are put on top of gas or charcoal barbecue and get heat from the barbecue. Gas/charcoal pizza ovens are truly flexible and convertible that can be used for gas, charcoal, wood pellets, or wood chips, depending on what’s available to you.
Brick Pizza Oven
Although this may be the latest model of an outdoor pizza-making oven, brick pizza ovens are also considered to be both economical and efficient. You can cook more than one pizza at a time as well as other foods you want inside this outdoor oven. At the same time, brick pizza ovens cook better and faster than any other oven. Other pros that brick pizza ovens offer are as follows:
- Faster cooking time
- Better and tastier crust
- More unique flavors
- Crispier toppings
How Much Does it Cost?
Just like any other construction project, the cost of building a pizza oven outdoors depends mostly on the model and fuel method chosen. Most of the time, an outdoor pizza oven can range from less than $200 to a few thousand dollars. It is important to note also the costs for materials like rebar and cement block for the base as well as the stone and brick for the facing.
For wood-fired pizza ovens, the price range on the market today is from $1,500 to $2,500, but a small, DIY clay oven may only cost less than $1,000. However, for gas/charcoal types, the price may change based on the type of fuel used. As for brick pizza ovens, professionally-built units are over $950 for a medium-sized model. But, if you desire to do it yourself, it will only be $275 to $350.
Why Install a Backyard Pizza Oven
There are a number of reasons why installing your own backyard pizza oven is practical. Once you get a taste of a wood-fired or brick oven-made pizza, you’ll be able to taste the difference. Not only with the taste of your pizza but also with the price you must pay each time you crave it.
Enjoy a wide variety of ingredients to add to your own homemade pizza like herbs, cheeses, and meats, as this is a very versatile type of food.
