Koke asked:


Is it safe, or will the wood catch on fire?
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The oven is a regular kitchen oven.
Also what type of wood should be used?

no. people have special (usually outdoor) ovens for this purpose. you can purchase a pizza stone for a similar affect for about $30.

Regular ovens are not vented with a chimney like brick ovens are. Do not try this at home.

NO!!!!
You HAVE to have proper ventilation for any type of smoke. When you burn wood it produces carbon monoxide, that will kill you and anyone else in the house. You have to have an oven with an exhaust incorporated into it before you could do that.

“wood oven pizza” is more commonly referred to as ‘Wood Fired Pizza” > If I am guessing correctly, you are referring to the same kind of pizza that places like Sammy’s and California Pizza Kitchen make in a big indoor wood BURNING oven. That is the actual meaning of Wood Fired Pizza. It is done in a large oven lined with firebricks (or similar construction) and burns various kinds of wood to add a smoky flavor to the pizza. NO you cannot do this in a home oven, unless you plan on making enough for the local fire dept. to chow down after they (hopefully) save your house. One of the other answers mentioned a pizza stone, those are good to use in an oven as they help crisp the bottom of the pizza. You can do it on an outdoor BBQ grill, with woodchips (used the same way for adding smoke flavor to steaks). You might look at this page for a good one.

Enjoy

No, a kitchen oven and a wood-burning pizza oven are two different things. Pizza ovens are very expensive. If you’re craving wood fired pizza, go to a restaurant.

Sure you can! But only if you want to have the fire department over for dinner.
