I took delivery of a new Uuni-3 Pizza oven last week and I tried it over the weekend.
The unit was easy to assemble and it took about 10 minutes
Assembly
After assembly we tested it with both shop bought pizzas and also home made - using the recipe in the Uuni instruction book.
The shop bought pizzas were not good - the temperature gradient inside the Uuni was so high that it burned the crust before the top was fully cooked.
The home made pizzas cooked better - probably as the base was thinner - however the flavour of the pizza was no so much of wood smoke as tar. This was the same when trying several different types of pellets.
First Cooks
The unit is inexpensive at under £200 but the resulting pizzas are not something I would proudly server to guests. Of the 10 test pizzas that we cooked ALL 5 of the shop bought pizzas were badly charred at the edges before the centre was cooked. The 5 home made pizzas cooked much more evenly and looked very presentable. The dough recipe that came with the instructions work well, as did the sauce. Unfortunately the resulting pizzas had the distinct flavour of tar which most of us found unpleasant.
General consensus was that out of 10 the Uuni 3 would score a 5.
