Top 10 Ooni Oven Recipes That Aren’t Pizza

1 Steak in the Ooni Pizza Oven

If you have a decent cast iron pan or skillet the Ooni oven is great for cooking a steak quickly at high heat, and it also imparts a delicious wood smoke taste.

It’s best to heat the cast iron skillet or pan first in the Ooni so that when you add your steak the pan will be hot enough to sear it on all sides.

If the fat in the steak flares up don’t panic just move the pan around a little. Crispy fat is tasty fat.
