When it comes to outdoor cooking, nothing compares to the rich flavor, aroma, and charm of food prepared in a Sedicioni Wood-Fired Oven. The crackling of the fire, the smoky scent that clings to the air, and the excitement of gathering friends and family around delicious food are all part of the magic. For many, however, the unpredictability of direct flame cooking can feel intimidating or impractical. That’s where the Sedicioni Outdoor Indirect Cooking Wood-Fired Oven comes in as a masterpiece that combines the tradition of wood-fired cooking with modern design and innovative functionality.

This isn’t just an oven. It’s the centerpiece of your outdoor kitchen, the ultimate tool for wood-fired perfection, and a reason to host unforgettable meals under the open sky.

sedicioni-wood-fired-oven-rossofuoco4A Smarter Way to Cook Outdoors

The Sedicioni oven is built around the principle of indirect cooking, which sets it apart in the crowded world of outdoor ovens. Unlike direct flame ovens, which can be uneven or difficult to control, the Sedicioni uses an intelligent system that channels heat evenly through radiant energy. This means your food cooks consistently—no more charred edges with undercooked centers.

And yes, it can still cook pizza beautifully. Thanks to its terracotta stone floor, pizzas come out with that signature crisp bottom and soft, airy crust. The fire burns below, heating the surface so thoroughly that every slice tastes like it came straight out of a traditional Italian pizzeria.

But the Sedicioni oven is not just about pizza. With two adjustable trays inside a square cooking chamber, you can prepare virtually anything, from roasted turkey and casseroles to cakes, artisan bread, and even slow-cooked meats that soak up the flavor of wood smoke. The spacious design allows side-by-side trays, unlike many ovens, where the narrow door limits you to one tray at a time.

Designed for Performance and Convenience Sedicioni Wood-Fired Oven

The Sedicioni oven is packed with features that make it a joy to use—not only for expert chefs but also for beginners discovering the joys of wood-fired cooking.

Fold-Down Glass Door

The oven’s door opens downward like a professional kitchen appliance, making it simple to access trays. Its glass design allows you to keep an eye on your food without losing heat.

Illuminated Cooking Chamber

Equipped with two internal lights, you’ll never need to guess whether your bread has risen or your roast has achieved that golden-brown perfection.

Unlike traditional wood ovens, the Sedicioni features two powerful fans that circulate hot air, creating a genuine convection environment. This ensures your food cooks evenly from all sides, whether you’re making pizza in minutes or roasting a chicken for Sunday dinner.

Smoke & Vapor Control

Flavor and texture are in your hands. The oven features a vapor valve, allowing you to release steam when cooking water-rich dishes, such as casseroles or braises, to achieve drier, crisper results. Meanwhile, the smoke valve lets you trap smoke in the chamber, infusing meats and vegetables with authentic smoky flavor.

Easy Ash Removal

Managing a wood oven can sometimes feel messy, but not here. The Sedicioni’s fire tray can be pulled out easily, so removing ashes is quick, simple, and clean.

Built to Complement Your Outdoor Kitchen

Functionality is just the beginning—the Sedicioni oven is designed to look as good as it performs. Its sleek black finish, paired with stainless steel accents, blends seamlessly into modern outdoor kitchens, especially those featuring stainless steel grills, countertops, or cabinetry.

The stainless steel roof is more than just a visual highlight—it’s built to withstand the elements. Rain, heat, and time often take the heaviest toll on an oven’s roof, but Sedicioni’s durable design ensures lasting protection. For those who prefer a custom look, the roof can also be painted in a variety of colors.

Flexibility is another strong point. The oven can be:

  • Built into a masonry outdoor kitchen for a seamless, high-end design.
  • Mounted on a mobile cart with wheels, complete with storage for firewood. This makes it easy to move the oven when rearranging your patio or hosting events.

Like any quality wood-fired oven, the Sedicioni thrives on dry wood. Using properly seasoned wood ensures consistent burning, better temperature control, and cleaner flavor without excess smoke. For anyone new to wood-fired cooking, this is one of the golden rules: dry wood makes excellent food.

Italian Clay Bricks In Pizza Ovens Handmade

Italian Clay Bricks In Pizza Ovens

Italian Clay Bricks In Pizza Ovens have been around for centuries, and for good reason because they produce uniquely spectacular pizzas. It is much more than a pizza oven. Gappsi Brick Ovens open up a wonderfully savory world of open hearth cooking, including meats, fish, vegetables, bread, and even desserts. Crafted with an artisan’s soul, a passion for detail, and unmatched customer service, Gappsi sets the industry standard for performance, practicality, and longevity for Outdoor Ovens.

What Makes Brick Oven Pizzas Special?

Neopolitan-style pizzas are special. The crust is crisp and flecked with tell-tale charred spots, evidence of being baked in an extremely hot oven. The interior of the dough is soft, elastic, tender, and fragrant, and the toppings are cooked to perfection.

Achieving the perfect pizza is not easy! The pizza pros usually use brick ovens that heat from 625ºF – 700ºF.

For perfect pizza, the cook must balance the two so that the dough and the toppings finish cooking at the same time. For that, they need to get the oven temperature right.  The Roman pizzaiolos (pizza bakers) used the high temperature, combined with the thermodynamic properties of the bricks. The vaulted cavity of the brick oven and the thick layer of bricks at the bottom of the oven guarantees even heating of the pizza. Brick ovens are ideal because the crust heats at a high but reasonable temperature giving the toppings enough time to properly cook.  This combination adds to the secret of the perfect pizza.

Italian Clay Bricks In Pizza Ovens Floors

The clay is one of the most important parts of making the brick and if your clay isn’t of high quality, there’s no way your pizza oven is going to be high quality.  The video below it shows the floor of the pizza oven and how the Artisian makes it using the traditional mixer.  This machine mixes the clay gathered locally in the region of Sorrento Italy.  The Clay is rich soil with volcanic pumice and silicon, a particular characteristic beneath Sorrento’s famed citrus orchards.  An oven base needs to be porous.  The pours help to warm up early and maintain the heat for a long time, releasing this heat evenly.

This is an old manufacturer that has been around for hundreds of years in Italy.  Time and tradition keep with each generation.  as the clay is mixed and poured to make the brick.

A wood mold is placed on top of a platform and the clay is spread by hand.  Simply spreading the clay by hand and not pressing it creates a more spongy finished product.  The bricks can absorb the heat and release the heat slowly. The clay is found locally and has been used for hundreds of years too.  Gappsi Italian Clay Bricks is not a product you can mass produce, the clay is being excavated locally in Sorrento Italy, and poured by hand for your next Italian Pizza Oven Order.

A Real Master Piece and Italian Art In Your Home!

The Amalfi Oven

We design Gappsi Brick Ovens using a machine made in the most traditional way. The techniques used are no longer around or followed by any other manufacturer that makes bricks or pizza ovens. Smoothing out the top surface is what makes the stone denser on the surface. You are talking about something made by hand; a real piece of Italian Art. Here it is!  And it can be YOURS. We prepare each brick in the same way; it is a dying art. To make each stone you literally have to feel the product as you make it. Craftsmen that create these particular bricks have a passion for the trade and understand a very old method of producing a brick oven. Every brick made for a Gappsi customer oven has this much care in producing it!

The difference between Biscotto di Sorrento and other types of brick materials on the market is that it does not burn the bottom of a pizza, absorbing moisture from the dough.

Gappsi Artisan strictly follows the ancient tradition of manufacturing:

  • Manual extraction of the clay.
  • Mix clay using water, grinders, and mixers
  • Form clay into different molds: bricks or floor bases.
  • Dried for 3 days in molds
  • Dried for 10 days in a stacked position
  • Clay bricks turn light grey after we fire them in the kiln.
  • Dried for 7 more days
  • The natural firing phase.

This involves the continuous burning of wood for seven hours. Then, after four days of baking the bricks are ready and have acquired a natural red color.

The unique flavor of brick oven pizza can cause any foodie to wish that they owned a brick oven of their own. Not only are they useful, but brick ovens also add elegance to any outdoor living area.
