Great video, thanks. Hint about pan pizza. Cast iron takes awhile to heat up but then maintains the heat well. Put your pan pizza with dough on your stove burner for 3 mins on medium high. Then put the pan in the oven. This way the bottom crust gets a head start towards crispy.😊 Just purchased my pizza oven & would love to see more videos from you.
This is one of the most informative and instructive reviews of a kitchen gadget I've seen in quite some time, Well done sir. In context, for a sub $300 pizza machine that can make pizzas this good is truly amazing. One thing to add, the Black Stone cast iron pan pizza maker is perfect for this pizza maker and comes with a cast iron handle to easily insert and remove it, and a thrivet to set it on. It's a must have if you like deep dish Chicago or Detroit style. I've made every style pizza with this, and thanks to your video, it cut the learning curve exponentially. Thank you!
Thanks for the review. My favorite style pizza is New York and pan so I’m excited about the oven! I recently picked one up. Just haven’t got try it yet
Great review, especially since you FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS out of the gate. That gave you a good baseline that you then were able to tweek to dial it in.
I got one of these for Christmas, and it's adorable. lol. Works great, too. My experience has been that the more I use it, the less the crust burns. The very first time I used it, I burned the hell out of my crust. I will say that the Frozen function isn't ideal for all frozen pizzas. Sometimes I'll buy a Red Baron Brick Oven crust when I'm feeling lazy, and rather than use the Frozen preset, I'll set it to 600f on bottom and 650 on top. Dust the bottom of the pizza with a little bit of King Arthur bread flour and it comes out amazing. I just eyeball the doneness and rotate it a couple times.
@@somedadscookwhat type of cheese did you use on the grandma pizza. I only ask because the top was cooking fast and browned too much but also didn’t seem like it would make 14 min. The bottom was great top too dark. Thanks for any help
Nice review. Another channel that reviewed this oven had trouble baking a neopolitan style pizza. The upper element cycled on and off and they didn't think it produced enough heat for that type of pizza, but yours looked pretty good. Did it seem like the upper element stayed on when you were baking your neopolitan? Does using the timer make a difference?
I haven't had that issue yet. I have made about 20 Neapolitan style pizzas now and they have all come out great. The timer doesn't do anything other than be an alarm for when it time to pull it out
Yeah, I saw that same video. Those guys didn't follow the instructions AT ALL.. They never waited until the oven preheated then couldn't understand why their pizza didn't turn out good. That video doesn't represent the product at all. .
Well done, man. I like the scientific method you did, changing the variables here and there. That’s what you call a designed experiment. I am definitely considering this for indoor. I like the precise manual controls for top and bottom. Can’t do that with my wood-fired. Im curious if the heating elements stay on with the door open. I like to raise the pizza to the top for few seconds using a turning peel to get additional firing. It would be awesome if that top element stayed on.
Great video and definitely pulling the trigger. Is that Blackstone pan 9.5" with the handles included? Wondering what the max size for a round pan would be?
When you made the new-york style pizza, did you change the temp or just use the new-york set mode suggested? Thank's! I prefer the new-york style anyway! Also, can you give me a link to your new-york style dough recipe please ! Thank's! I just subscibed!
I just bought that same black stone cast iron pan. Oddly enough it doesn’t fit the way you put it in yours with the handles on the side but it does fit with the handles front to back. They must’ve changed the dimensions.
Hey, thanks so much for the video. We've had pretty good luck setting the bottom temperature to 650°, and the top to 800. That said, we're getting a great rise, but we're not getting the same browned and crispy crust that you are. We're cooking for 3 minutes, and would let it go longer, except the cheese (fresh mozzarella) is starting to get a little overdone at 3 minutes. Any thoughts? Are you able to get a consistently crispy crust? Thanks!
Great question. I would consider adding some sugar and oil to your dough. It should help it brown up. I am making a dough video right now and just tested that out. I did about 1 T sugar and 1 T oil per 500g of flour.
Just got this on sale at Costco for 250. It’s amazing compared to the home oven. Only complaint is in manual mode it’s hard to see what temp you’re setting at since the temp lights up and only dim slightly to indicate its selection. Thought it was broken at first 😅.
Fantastic video! Do you know the interior dimensions? If I could get a 9 x 13 aluminum pan in here for things I would otherwise use a toaster oven for, I could add this to my life :-)
Heya< Thanx so much for this!!! When I worked in Pizza places when I was a kid, when we used a Cutter/Rocker, I was always told to start in the middle and rock to the sides. Same thing with a Pizza Wheel. Give it a try. 17:24 Maybe some (a lot of) Oil in the Deep Dish pan might make it crispier? : )
For pan pizza, the cheese and sauce need to be all the way to the edge, and to get some really nice 'frico' around the edge, you should use a good quantity of freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano all around the edge, filling in any empty space. That will give you the crunchy edge you are looking for.
What dough recipe do you use for your thin crust? I've watch the video 3 times but can't seem to catch which recipe you use! I've watched the one about pizza dough as well, just curious if you use the 'regular' or the NY style one! Thanks
I'm looking for a 16-inch pizza oven electric less than onni I don't want to pay a thousand bucks for a pizza. I see a bunch of the double decker ones on Amazon they say are commercial. Has anyone done a review on those?
@@somedadscookthanks. One other question, people say when it gets up to temp, the top element looks like it turns off and affects cooking. Have you noticed this?
I turned it on Max temp and let it run for an hour. The top is hot, but I can hold my hand on it for about 2 seconds. The sides and the front are hotter and can only touch them for a split second. I think if a toddler touched it they would be in pain but wouldn't get a severe burn. I haven't noticed the top element doing that.
my neo dough recipe is sticky and even sticks to parchment paper if I use it, so getting off the Chefman peel id very difficult. I use semolina/00 flour mix on my work surface and on the peel, still sticks. what am I doing wrong. Is your dough recipe available?
That's a tuff question. The oven is still pretty new to me, where I have cooked hundreds on my propane ones. I would recommend it to anyone starting out, and if you don't like it you can take it back since it's Costco
Every pizza oven differs in what it does best and the all have pro's and con's. I have a cheap electric clamshell and I use it almost every day. 10 minute pre-heat and for the pizza I make it's 3-4 minutes to cook. It's not going to do a true 60-90 sec neapolitan but it still gets results I'm extremely happy with. Including delivery it cost less than a pizza steel. Choose the oven that suits what you plan to do with it.
is this a real review or an advertisement because i am confused on this entire pizza oven issue , such as , high end Pizza Stone or Steel for my home oven , or do i get a propane outdoor pizza oven or the Chefman or Cuisinart electric oven , the Breville is out of my reach dollar wise
This is a real review. He was at Costco and saw this for a good price and decided to buy it and try it. Not sponsored in any way! He was genuinely surprised with how great it was for an affordable electric oven.
What kind of mozzarella did you use? In 3 minutes the mozzarella that I am using burn, the crust on the edge is not near close to yours…. What am I doing wrong ?
I always use Cornmeal for the bottom and have used GRANDE MOZZ WM SHREDDED for ever lol.....I will be getting mine on Thursday and will be happy with a 12 inch pizza for the winter months.
Sorry but where is the basil on your first Margherita - and why did you put it on the second after the pizza was pulled out of the oven the final time. This would have been a great check because you would have seen if the basil is scorched. It was really good that you put it to the paces for different styles of pizza. Thank you!
Great review. Will consider getting this. Have u tried a cast iron pan for grilling steak? Obviously the high temp sears the steak. Amazon does have the 1 inch cast iron circular pan that's used by restaurants. For pan pizzas, restaurants do par cook the bottom and then flip it so that the top crust doesn't get soggy when u put on the sauce&toppings/cheese. Little Caesars' conveyor electric oven has that nuked look when u melt cheese inside a microwave as the heat isn't contained causing heat loss&leaks as the pizza pan goes thru. Seems like the pizza stone focuses that heat. Their gas oven actually cooks great&u can tell the difference between electric vs gas ovens.
@@randyvfromtheperch If you watch the follow up video reviews of pizza ovens, the chefs are looking for creative uses for it other than just a pizza oven by those youtube reviewers, they think of other things to cook inside it. You can't duplicate those high end broilers in restaurants with regular ovens. So these top/bottom high temp pizza ovens are a great substitute for those restaurant broilers. Anyway most ppl use a dedicated cast iron pan for the steaks so that it doesn't mess up the pizza stone on pizza oven.
Just not in the same league as the Breville Pizzaiolo and Ooni Volt. They did a half-assed job copying them. But it is half the price I paid for my Breville.
This oven is a fail. It does not make a proper Neapolitan. If it can't make a proper Neapolitan pizza, then there is no need for this oven because you can make every other style in a regular home oven.,
Just got mine yesterday. Tried NY style using my General Mills "All Trumps" flour recipe. Using the NY preset, the top did not even come close to your NY pizza in the form of browning. Any ideas?

Great tip!
Oh that's a cool tip!!
Yes, I’ve had the Lodge pizza pan or any cast iron, needs to be preheated or the bottom comes out light.
I love your thorough and honest explanation of each pizza tested. I really appreciate these kinds of reviews.
Thank you!

I live in Michigan. I’m not going out in sub zero weather to fire up a pizza oven. I needed something I can use indoors.

Great review.
Thank you
Just got one. Got the same results you did on margarita pizzas! Bottom is too hot on preset. I’m happy.
Great to hear!

That is great advice on the frozen pizzas
I’m so mad at you! Been eyeing this at Costco and of course after watching your awesome video, I pulled the trigger.. thx a lot!😂😊

Just bought one! What is that wooden block that you use to create your pizzas? Did you make that?
It's actually a cutting board I purchased from steelmadeUSA when I bought a griddle from them
Have you also tried the Omni Volt and Breville indoor ovens?
No I haven't. Am trying to get my hands on one
How about a comparison video between the Chefman and the Ooni?
.
Would putting some cornmeal on the stone help avoid the scorching to the bottom?
It might. I have avoided using cornmeal because in my fire ovens, it catches on fire pretty easy. I will have to give it a try.
in the wfo dry cornmeal scorches and burns faster than wheat flour, blackened cornmeal sticks to the deck too
Can a pan pizza be pulled, removed from pan...then put back in on the stove for a few minutes?
It could, but I would be worried about the oil burning. So it might depend on how much oil you use
Great review! I'm going to buy because of this, they should cut you a commission check!
Wouldn't that be great

Rather skimpy on the sauce
