Cooking in a wood-fired pizza oven is simply made for Kiwi outdoor living and The Complete Kiwi Pizza Oven is the one comprehensive source of everything you need to know to share in that lifestyle.

Should you build your own or buy a pre-cast oven, where's the best place to site it, what firewood burns best, what tools do you need, how do you fire the oven and maintain the temperature, and, most importantly, what can you cook in it?

Highly regarded chef tutor and author Alan Brown built his own oven, and here he shares invaluable practical advice on all aspects of oven management, as well as his own irresistible recipes, photographed in sumptuous full colour by Todd Eyre.

You won't believe how delicious food tastes cooked in a pizza oven, whether seafood, meat, vegetables, bread, desserts or, of course, pizzas!

The Complete Kiwi Pizza Oven also includes the popular Shed magazine article on how to build a pizza oven, as well as profiles of 17 Kiwis and their ovens, with their (often hilarious) experiences, recipes and tips.
