Weighing just 22 pounds, the Ooni Frya 12 portable outdoor pizza oven will make you the most popular person to invite over for a party. Its portable design and weight mean you can make wood-fired pizza in just 60 seconds. It's powered by hardwood pellets and can reach up to 950 degrees F in just 15 minutes.

In terms of convenience, the Ooni Frya 12 uses a gravity-fed hopper for delivering the hardwood pellet fuel into the oven. It's made of a powder-coated carbon steel shell for ideal heat retention.

Mashable's review of the Ooni Frya 12 gave it high praise, once you've overcome the learning curve.

And the super high heat gave you that pleasant char, bubbly crust, and impossibly fast cook time. There is no way, that I know of, to replicate this with an oven or stove."
