How to Properly Clean an Outdoor Pizza Oven (DIY)

Introduction

Your outdoor pizza oven is most likely the pride and joy of your backyard cooking area. It's also really easy to clean and maintain. Thanks to the high cooking temperatures in an outdoor pizza oven, most food debris — whether it's tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese or a stray slice of pepperoni — will burn off rather than sticking to the interior of the oven. Follow these simple steps between uses and your outdoor pizza oven will continue to work perfectly for years to come.

Note: The first four steps apply to wood-fired ovens. For tips on how to clean a gas-heated outdoor pizza oven, see Step 5.
