Digital 00295 Review

EcoQue Wood Burning Pizza Oven and Smoker Review
EcoQue's Wood Fired Pizza Oven and Smoker design is based on Fontana Forni's dual chamber pizza ovens that are made in Italy. The fire is built in the lower chamber and your food is baked and cooked in the upper chamber. EcoQue adds a second cook chamber which can be used for smoking and roasting.
Renato PR/310 Outdoor Oven Review
Check out our review of this large pizza oven. Renato's PR/310 Outdoor Oven is a heavy, traditional dome-shaped wood burning oven made of thick refractory material weighing a total of 1,500 pounds. PR/310 comes complete with a steel reinforced pedestal on casters and a set of tools.
Mugnaini Medio 110 Barrel Outdoor Oven Review
Mugnaini's Medio 110 Barrel Outdoor Oven is an imported Italian Valoriani refractory oven wrapped in insulation and a stucco finish that may be colored and/or decorated. We reviewed the Medio 110 Barrel which is one of Mugnaini's most popular freestanding residential ovens.
Alfa Pizza 5 Minuti Review
Check out our review of Alfa Pizza's 5 Minuti, which is so named for the ability to heat up quickly, although Alfa recommends you give it 15 minutes before cooking. Metal pizza ovens are known to heat up quickly in contrast to the traditional refractory ovens made with clay or modern refractory material.
Fontana Forni Toscano Margherita Outdoor Oven Review
Fontana considers The Forno Toscano Margherita Wood Fired Pizza Oven to be their signature product. Instead of bricks or cast refractory material, Fontana uses heavily insulated steel construction which heats up faster than refractory ovens, but cools off faster as well. It has a food grade stone floor. Read our review to learn more.
Fontana Forni Small-Est Outdoor Oven Review
Read our review of this cabinet style pizza oven. Unlike domed pizza ovens with an open front, Small-Est has a door with a window over the cook chamber, which is equipped with an interior light. A second door with sliding damper covers the firebox.
Earthstone 90-PA Wood Fired Oven Review
Read our review. Earthstone's 90-PA Wood Fired Pre-Assembled Oven is their most popular free-standing residential model. With a 35" cooking diameter interior and a 20" wide by 9.5" high oven entrance, it's big enough to do three to four 8" pizzas or two to three 12" pizzas. It is also available as a gas model.
Forno Bravo Primavera 60 Outdoor Oven Review
Check out our review of this pizza oven package which includes the refractory wood oven and chimney, metal stand, clay chimney cap, CD ROM for instruction, and a steel door with built-in thermometer. Built-in dial thermometers are inaccurate. Forno Bravo recommends getting an Infrared Gun Thermometer for an accurate reading of the floor and dome temps.
George Foreman 15 Serving Indoor/Outdoor Grill Review
Check out our review of the George Foreman 15 Serving Indoor/Outdoor Grill. It is an attractive electric cooker that can be used as a tabletop grill, or freestanding grill.
Cabela’s 7 in 1 Cooker/Smoker Review
Cabelas's 7 in 1 Cooker/Smoker is made by Masterbuilt and is identical to Masterbuilt's 7 in 1 Smoker and Grill. It can use gas or charcoal as fuel. It converts into a brazier or a tripod for boiling water or deep frying. Versatility offsets the light weight construction earning our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal.Up Your BBQ IQ By Joining The Pitmaster Club
