Should you buy it?
The Horacio Black Royal is a handmade Portuguese wood-fired oven built around a refractory clay inner dome. Insulation and refractory mortar surround the chamber to retain heat for high-temperature pizza and bread as well as slower roasting and casserole cooking. Its heavy cast-iron door incorporates a glass viewing window and ash hatch, while the stainless-steel flue includes a choke to help manage the fire. An external thermometer reads up to 500°C and provision is included for an optional rotisserie. Weighing around 650kg, this is a permanent garden installation rather than a movable pizza oven, but the thermal mass gives it far broader cooking capability.
