Pizza party, anyone?

Traditionally, summer is a time for BBQs. But in recent years, my summer get-togethers have been all about al fresco pizzas — and they're all the better for it. It started with my Ooni, and then gradually, all my friends and family bought their own outdoor pizza ovens. Make your own dough (or pick up some ready-made balls of dough; they're not too hard to find), grab a bunch of toppings and let everyone create their own personal pizza. It's the perfect summer party activity, and there's delicious food as a bonus.

It's just challenging enough to feel like a special occasion, but not so much that everyone can't get stuck in. (My top tip is to ditch the cheese on at least one of your bases and add butter mixed with grated garlic — get ready for the most delicious garlic bread of your life).

It might not be the most immediately attractive time to be adding more heat into the mix, given that it's starting to feel like we are living in one big oven right now. If you can look past that, now's actually a really great time to shop. The Amazon Prime Day sale has begun and a bunch of pizza ovens from leading brands have big discounts — plus, other retailers are having their own rival sales, so the pizza deals pool is even wider. I'd suggest the excellent Ooni range if you're looking for a gas or multifuel option, or Ninja for faff-free but slightly less authentic electric. I've also found some wood-fired pizza oven options if you're after that delicious smoky taste.
