Maximus Prime Arena Red Large Pizza Oven

Bring the Flavors of Europe to Your Outdoor Table

If you're looking for the best outdoor wood-fired pizza oven for your backyard, catering, or a food truck, this is the perfect large pizza oven! We personally use this wood-fired oven and we LOVE IT! You can read our review of the Prime Wood Fired Oven here.

The Maximus Prime ARENA is the upgraded style that has a slate front look rather than the traditional brick look.

Don't be fooled by the chimney at the back of the oven. The Prime Arena Stainless Steel Wood-Fired Oven has an aluminum dome with a stainless steel dropped ceiling inside the oven. This ceiling directs the heat/fire from the back of the oven to the front of the oven and then up through a ceiling opening that goes back to the chimney.

This design sends the heat over your food which allows for convection cooking and better heat retention!

Color Options:

Note: As these ovens are handmade, no two are exactly the same - the dimensions and colors may not be exact but are close.

• OUTSIDE Wall: Beautiful RED or BLACK Aluminum wall - high oxidation and corrosion resistance (we've used ours in the Florida weather for years w/o any issues!)
• INSIDE Wall: 304-2B grade Stainless Steel DOUBLE wall containing a high-temperature special ceramic blanket. Stainless Steel 304-2B is better due to its resistance to salt and sea corrosion.
• INSULATION: High-temperature ceramic blanket and a special fire-blanket with safety homologation, bio-soluble, and asbestos FREE, between inner and outer wall to hold in the heat.
  The thickness of the insulation between the dome of the oven and the inner layer is 3 cm/1.18" thick
• FRONT FAÇADE: Cast stone in refractory cement (Lafarge) and inside a structure made with a forged iron to reinforce the cast stone
• CHIMNEY & DOOR: 100% 304-2B Stainless Steel
• COOKING FLOOR: Refractory Tiles
• OVEN WEIGHT: ~400lbs - Very portable (with strong friends) or remove the inside tiles during relocation to decrease weight by about 100lbs - perfect for catering or tailgating!

WHY CHOOSE A STAINLESS STEEL PIZZA OVEN

Unlike a brick oven, a stainless steel pizza oven heats up fast. In just 30–40 minutes, you can fire it up after work and be cooking before you finish your first glass of wine. The larger cooking floor fits up to (4-5) 12" pizza pies at a time, and they will cook to perfection in less than 3 minutes.

AWARD-WINNING QUALITY

   

HANDMADE IN PORTUGAL

Every Maximus Prime Arena is carefully built by skilled artisans in Portugal. This oven combines traditional craftsmanship with modern efficiency, making it one of the most reliable wood-fired ovens on the market.

DURABLE DOUBLE-WALL CONSTRUCTION

Built to last, the Maximus Prime Arena features a 1.4mm aluminum outer wall that resists wet, salty climates and a 304-2B stainless steel double wall for unmatched strength. With ceramic insulation, a refractory floor tile, and a decorative brick façade, it stays hot for hours inside while remaining cool to the touch outside.

COOKING PRODUCTIVITY

Fire through up to 140 10" pizzas per hour (just think of the pizza orders you could fill!). At just 400 pounds, it's light enough to move and far more affordable than a pizza trailer, yet powerful enough to handle serious volume wherever you set up.

This is the perfect commercial pizza oven for mobile food truck businesses, caterers, pizza parties, small restaurant businesses, backyard birthday parties, corporate events, trailers, and fairs. Much less expensive than a pizza trailer and light enough to move around - even fits in the back of most cars. You can’t go wrong - optimize your business with this economical oven.

With 35" x 35" of internal space, this oven can comfortably handle multiple pizzas at once. To help you visualize the best way to use it, we’ve scaled it down in the illustration below.

The PRIME is the big brother to the MAXIMUS.  If the Prime model is too big, take a look at the smaller wood fired oven from Portugal, the Maximus pizza oven.  Either way, you'll find a pizza oven that's just right!

For Food Truck or Trailer Use, Read Here If you are planning to use this oven for a food truck or trailer, it MUST BE MODIFIED in order to handle the constant movement and vibrations. Your vehicle must have satisfactory suspension and the face of the oven must be secured with added bolts from the dome into the face. We have an instructional video which we can provide. This is an after purchase modification. We are not responsible for any damages if not properly modified. For a hassle-free professional option, consider our Maximus Prime PRO Large Pizza Oven. This is our new professional-grade oven and it now comes pre-secured for use in food trucks and trailers, so you don't need to make these modifications yourself.
