The next big thing in outdoor cooking is here. And when we say “big,” we mean it. The super-sized, gas-fueled Koda 2 Max is the latest addition to the Ooni oven lineup. This oven sports a massive 24-inch cooking surface, two independently controlled cooking zones and a brand-new Bluetooth-enabled Digital Temperature Hub.
Let’s jump right into those features so you can truly see why the Koda 2 Max is such a revolutionary outdoor oven.
Size Matters
Without getting too much into geometry (unless you want to), the Koda 2 Max’s 24-inch cooking area–spread across two baking stones–offers incredible versatility. If we’re JUST talking pizza that’s big enough to cook:
Two 12-inch pizzas side-by-side
Three 10-inch pizzas
A single, monster 20-inch New York-style pie ready to be sliced up for a group, or just yourself (when it comes to pizza, we don’t judge).
If you want to get really crazy (and who doesn’t?), you can use that big baking area for a side and a main or a pizza and a roast. Let this gas-powered oven fire your imagination.
You’re probably asking yourself, “But aren’t different things supposed to be cooked at different temperatures?!” How astute of you! And what a lovely segue too.
Zonal Cooking
Remember how we said that the Koda 2 Max has two baking stones? Inside the oven, you’ll also find two independently controlled gas burners that enable cooking at a wide range of temperatures across the two cooking zones.
Cook a deep-dish pizza on one side while firing out a NY-style pizza on the other. Sear steaks on the left while flame-cooking veggies on the right. Make an entree and a dessert. Pizza and burgers. Hot dogs and roast chicken. This isn’t just an oven, it’s the life of the party.
If that seems like a lot to keep track of while you’re trying to entertain guests, hungry kids and that one neighbor who just won’t shut up, don’t worry, we’ve thought about that too.
