Fuel Type
On the other hand, the Ooni Karu offers more flexibility in terms of fuel options. It is a multi-fuel pizza oven, which means it can be powered by wood, charcoal, or gas. This gives you the freedom to choose the fuel type that best suits your needs and availability. It's a versatile option for those who may prefer different fuel types for different occasions, allowing you to choose and change your fuel as you wish! Gas for consistency and low-maintenance cooking, and wood/charcoal for smoky, aromatic flavour.
