Elevate your outdoor culinary horizons with the Fontana Forni Mangiafuoco Wood-Fired Pizza Oven. As the “big brother” to the Margherita, the Mangiafuoco offers an expanded cooking surface for those who love to entertain larger crowds without sacrificing the speed and efficiency Fontana is famous for. Since 1940, Bering’s has been a family-owned destination for those who appreciate the intersection of heritage and high performance, and this 100% Italian-made oven is the ultimate expression of the wood-fired art.
The Mangiafuoco (literally “Fire Eater”) is engineered for maximum thermal mass and recovery. Its generous 24″ x 32″ cooking chamber allows you to bake two or three pizzas at once, or a full family-sized roast alongside your side dishes. Despite its larger capacity, the Mangiafuoco retains the incredible efficiency of Fontana’s vaulted dome design, reaching 750°F in under 30 minutes.
Why you’ll love it:
- Masterful Italian Engineering: Handcrafted in Italy with a stainless steel and electro-galvanized steel exterior that is powder-coated for maximum weather resistance and a stunning aesthetic.
- Unrivaled Insulation: Packed with 12cm of natural rock wool insulation, the Mangiafuoco maintains scorching internal temperatures with minimal wood consumption, ensuring the oven stays hot for hours of cooking. On average, it consumes 5x less wood than a traditional ceramic pizza oven.
- Professional Refractory Floor: The cooking surface is made of certified food-grade chamotte refractory brick, which provides the perfect “thermal kick” for crispy crusts and deep-seared meats.
- Versatility for the Host: Perfect for high-heat Neapolitan pizza, but equally capable of low-and-slow roasting or baking several loaves of artisanal bread simultaneously.
- Even Heat Distribution: The unique cooking chamber design ensures uniform heat distribution, avoiding hot spots.
- Corrosion Resistance: The electro-galvanized and powder-coated exterior provides excellent protection against corrosion.
- Temperature Control: The stainless steel damper control allows for precise temperature control for maximum heat retention.
- Minimal Space Needed: Certified for 1-inch clearance to combustibles making it easily located into tighter spaces without any safety concerns.
- Cooking Versatility: Make pizzas, roasts, steaks, vegetables, breads, desserts, and more.
- Pizza Capacity: Three 10″ pizzas | two 12″ pizzas.
- Choice of Color: Available in Gray, Red, and Stainless Steel.
At Bering’s, we believe that the heart of the home is where the fire is. The Fontana Forni Mangiafuoco doesn’t just cook food; it creates a theatrical centerpiece for your outdoor living space, bringing the authentic taste of the Italian countryside to your Houston backyard.
