Ooni Karu 2 Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven

Overview

The Ooni Karu 2 is a multi fuel outdoor pizza oven that runs on wood or charcoal from its fuel tray, or propane through a separate gas burner attachment, cooking a 12 inch pizza in about 60 seconds at up to 950F.

Ooni's pitch is flexibility: load the fuel tray with wood or charcoal for a smoke driven bake, or add the optional gas burner for a faster, cleaner cook on busy nights. A borosilicate glass door and built in thermometer let you watch the fire and judge temperature without opening the chamber, and the powder coated body is built to travel between backyard and campsite.

• Cooks a 12 inch pizza in about 60 seconds
• Multi fuel: wood, charcoal or optional gas burner
• Reaches up to 950F, hot in as little as 15 minutes
• Borosilicate glass door with built in thermometer

Who it's for

Good for cooks who want the option of real wood flavor and gas convenience depending on the occasion, and who do not mind a short learning curve on fire management. Less suited to someone who wants to load an oven once and forget it, since the wood side here rewards a bit of practice.

What buyers say

From Amazon customer reviews.

Buyers liked pairing wood fired flavor with the option to switch to gas for a quicker cook, and several praised the companion app's recipes and how fast the oven heats up. The recurring complaint was that dialing in temperature takes practice, and that lower quality wood can smoke up the glass door; a couple of reviewers recommended the rotating stone accessory to make turning pizzas easier.
