    Your videos are so helpful. Nice not to see the typical influencer this product is great. One thing I would add is the is there is more room in the xl for cooking things other than pizzas e.g., steak in on pan and potatoes in another. Had my roccbox for about three years and continue to love it.

    Thank you so much for this! I am utterly astonished that the heating times should be so close. I too had expected the Arc to be faster (OK, much faster - wrong!) and I’m delighted to now be in possession of the facts, thanks to your experiments.
    Also great to now know that they are potentially still portable (with care, and maybe a coat) when hot.
    Good work!

    I know you kinda answer already this questions in separated videos but....when you do the roccbox vs arc video you could highlight gas consumption, a real time side by side cooking and then monitoring of recovery time, easy/necessity of turning pizza. Other thing that i could have missed but its crucial to me the ambient temperature when you apply those tests. I would ask for a 1hr cook battle to see who makes most pizza, but its a lot of pizza to eat!😂😂 unless you have charity place near by your house! Amazing videos. Really nice content. 💪

    Very well done!!! This is a very useful video. I was wondering if you have ever tried one of the two ovens around 700F. It's interesting to see how Americans tend to prefer the "Napoletana" 850F, 90 seconds etc.... In Italy the Napoletana represents a small fraction of the market, some people believe it might disappear as we know it today :) For most people the "Italiana" or the "Romana" are by far better. Thank you A.

  • @FrostyTheBeerMan
    @FrostyTheBeerMan Před 26 dny

    Great video ! Thanks so much for posting the info about the propane tank weights. I guess I'm wondering how many times you could make pizza with either of these models, when we compared heating up a regular ol' bbq, most of us will heat it for maybe 10 minutes, and start cooking burgers...... these ovens require a good 30 minutes to heat... and if that's at full blast, I gotta wonder how much fuel your oven(s) will use vs a bbq, let's say the average bbq at about 40,000 BTU. Is there any rating on the box that tells you any btu rating on the pizza oven(s) ? I haven't seen any video talk about this. So the typical 20 lb tank costs about what ? $15 to fill, but how many bakes can you get on these ovens on a tank ? ... it's an interesting question... Thanks for your time !

    Thanks for killing it with the Gozney reviews. Questions on accessories: on the turning peels is there a preferred sized diameter for pizzas 14" or greater? And preferred length of handle for ease of handling and for not burning oneself? And on the placement peel is the Gozney "pro placement peel the way to go? Trying to figure out what's best choice the first time, as all the things add up. Many thanks!

    Roccobox is a beast for pizza catering. I've been running a pizzeria for 20 years, and for catering, we use Roccobox. It's interesting to see if the Arc XL can match it. Roccobox can bake 23-24 pizzas per hour without major issues; I doubt the Arc XL can achieve that.

      If you cook 11-12” Neapolitans you’ll be able to cook 2 at a time all day long without waiting for the stone to get back to temp. And you could cook 4 at a time with probably a 6 minute wait. A skilled pizzaolio could make 100+ pizzas in an hour, that’s incredible.
