    Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Oven: pizza, roast and pellet smoke

    Eight functions including Pizza, Max Roast, Smoker and Dehydrate make it far more than a pizza oven.

Not every garden has room for both a barbecue and a pizza oven. A combo unit lets one piece of kit do both jobs, and there are three ways to get there. Some ovens are built to bake pizza and also grill, roast or smoke. Some kits turn a kettle barbecue you already own into a pizza oven. And some ovens sit on top of a gas or charcoal grill. Each route has a trade-off: a kettle kit is cheap on space but relies on your grill, while a dedicated oven gets hotter but adds another box to store. When you compare them, look at the fuel, the cooking area, the stated top heat and the footprint on your patio. This guide compares seven options on those points, using only what each listing states, and says Not stated where the listing is silent.
