No More Cold Pizza For The Chef: We Put Gozney’s £2,500 Dome XL To The Test

Come rain or shine, we’re cooking pizza, chicken wings, steaks, fries and more in this outdoor oven.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about most modern-day pizza ovens, it’s that they’re never quite big enough to cook multiple pizzas in one go – and that’s a travesty.

Often, it means the chef of the household is left prepping one pizza at a time, then cooking it, then prepping another and cooking that, while everyone else tucks in to their efforts.

By the time they’re bringing the third or fourth pizza to the table, the rest of the group are stick-a-fork-in-me stuffed, while the chef just about manages to shovel a single, cold slice into their mouth.

This is usually the case for my other half, who (thankfully) loves cooking for our family.

But when the opportunity came knocking to try Gozney’s Dome XL (Gen 2) – a bigger version of the Arc, which we’ve been using for the past few years – I was curious to see whether this would mean he’d finally be able to sit down and eat with us.

Dear reader: he did! And as for the pizza... it was the tastiest yet.

How big is the Gozney Dome XL?

It’s large enough to cook two 12″ (14″ at a push) pizzas – so, certainly living up to its moniker.

The pizza oven is 946mm wide, 997mm high and 697mm deep. If space is at a premium in your back garden, you might want to give this one........
