Entertain guests outdoors and cook delicious food with Nicolock Paving Stones’ selection of outdoor ovens. From a compact backyard pizza oven to a full outdoor wood fired pizza oven, our products combine authentic flavor with stylish design. With Nicolock, you can prepare pizza, chicken, bread, and more—turning every meal into an outdoor dining experience.

When you host an event, you want to be outside enjoying the company, not stuck in the kitchen. A Nicolock pizza oven outdoor setup lets you do both. Whether you choose a built-in outdoor pizza oven for your kitchen island or a freestanding stone pizza oven, meal prep becomes part of the fun.

Outdoor Wood-Fired Pizza Ovens

Nothing beats the taste of food made in a wood fired outdoor pizza oven. Our ovens use refractory brick floors and corrosion-resistant stainless steel to deliver authentic flavor and reliable performance. Cook everything from pizza and burgers to roasted vegetables and desserts with that signature wood-fired taste.

Nicolock offers several options:

  • Imperial and Duke outdoor wood fired ovens: Compact, countertop models that fit seamlessly into an outdoor kitchen.
  • Verona Outdoor Brick Oven Kit: A large outdoor masonry oven assembled with Nicolock retaining wall stones for a show-stopping backyard centerpiece.
  • Outdoor brick pizza ovens: Durable, classic designs that combine old-world style with modern construction.

Gas and Propane Outdoor Ovens

If you prefer convenience, Nicolock also offers outdoor gas pizza ovens and propane pizza ovens that heat quickly and require minimal cleanup. These built-in or freestanding options are perfect for homeowners who want the flexibility of gas cooking with the style of a traditional pizza oven exterior.

Outdoor Kitchen Pizza Ovens

Pairing an outdoor kitchen pizza oven with Nicolock’s grill islands or patios creates a complete outdoor dining area. From patio pizza ovens to full outdoor bread ovens, these additions make it easy to cook, serve, and entertain in one space. A built-in pizza oven in your outdoor kitchen gives you gourmet cooking power right in your backyard.

FAQs

1. How close can a pizza oven be to the house?

At least 10 feet from structures for safety.

2. Do outdoor pizza ovens need a chimney?

Yes, chimneys help with smoke ventilation and even cooking.

3. Can you put a pizza oven under a pergola?

Yes, with proper ventilation and safe clearance from the structure.

4. What goes under a pizza oven floor?

A mixture of fine sand and clay paste is used beneath the refractory bricks for stability.

5. What are the different types of outdoor ovens?

Outdoor ovens are commonly grouped by fuel and installation style. Fuel choices include a traditional wood-fired oven for smoky flavor and gas or propane models for quicker heat. Designs range from built-in units set into an outdoor kitchen to freestanding carts that can move around the patio.

6. How much does it cost to build an outdoor oven?

Costs depend on size, materials, and whether you choose a ready-made unit or a full masonry build. Countertop and cart-style models usually sit at the lower end, while custom stone installations and full outdoor kitchen integrations require higher construction and finishing budgets.

7. How to maintain an outdoor oven?

Basic care focuses on cleaning and protection. Clear ashes from wood-burning models, brush cooking surfaces as needed, wipe exterior stainless steel with mild soap and water, and use a weather cover or shelter to guard the oven from long-term exposure.

8. Are outdoor ovens worth it?

Many homeowners see an outdoor oven as a long-term upgrade that supports more home cooking and memorable gatherings. It adds a dedicated cooking zone to the patio, expands menu options beyond the grill, and can contribute to overall outdoor living value.

9. Can an outdoor oven be used year-round?

With proper installation and care, many outdoor oven setups can be used year-round. Choosing durable materials, following local guidelines for fuel and ventilation, and protecting the unit between uses help extend its performance in changing weather.
