                     How to choose the 
right oven for a 
food truck
Food trucks are usually small trucks, 
vans, trailers or caravans in which food 
is prepared and sold to be consumed, 
usually on the spot. These vehicles, 
also called gastronetas, kitchenettes, 
restaurant trucks or food trucks, are 
generally adapted for the activity with 
a kitchen, counters, cold rooms and 
smoke extraction systems.
These stalls are normally wandering 
and offer cuisines and dishes of a very 
different nature. You can find ice 
cream, hamburger and hot dog food 
trucks, the classics that appear in 
American movies, but their diversity 
can be as wide as kitchens on the 
planet.
However, they not only present traditional or 
slightly reinvented elaborations. More and more 
restaurants and chefs with a truly novel and 
innovative proposal have been encouraged to 
have their food trucks and have adapted or 
created recipes for this kitchen on wheels format.
Wood has a higher cost and takes up more space, 
but it has the advantage of returning pizzas with 
an edge, both for taste and charm. On the other 
hand, Gas is much more convenient to carry; it is 
cheaper, and above all, cooking is much easier to 
manage.
In any case, the main characteristics that a good 
professional street food pizza oven should have 
are:
High production efficiency
Cooking speed of pizzas
Lightness and ease of movement
Let's explore these three factors, which also, in 
this case, are interrelated and determine the 
quality (and therefore the price) of professional 
ovens.
High production efficiency
Evaluating the production efficiency of the 
oven means comparing the number of 
pizzas that Kitchener food trucks can churn 
out (per hour and in the evening) with the 
fuel consumption and the time required 
reaching a high temperature.
Therefore, an efficient oven can make us 
spend little on its power supply, but it allows 
us to churn out many pizzas, all cooked to 
perfection, keeping the temperature 
constant and which needs a few tricks. 
Efficiency, therefore, also has to do with 
production speed, the second ideal feature 
for a Kitchener food truck oven.
Cooking speed of pizzas
A fast oven is an oven with which they 
can churn out many pizzas in a short 
time, a fundamental quality for the 
moments of greatest influx of 
customers. Keeping the temperature 
high is important both to guarantee the 
quality of the pizza and limit the 
inevitable increase in the consumption 
of the oven for a few minutes.
The ideal would be a large oven, but 
they must also consider that there is 
often only one pizza maker in street 
food activities, and it would be difficult 
to manage a range that is too large. , 
which can cook more than five or six 
pizzas at the same time. It is important 
to choose an oven that Food trucks 
Kitchener can manage even in a hurry 
so that it is rarely empty.
Lightness and ease of movement
Another important factor is the weight 
of the oven. This parameter directly 
impacts the vehicle's consumption when 
you move, ensuring that the oven 
contributes doubly to the operating 
costs of your pizza street food business.
Furthermore, a light oven can also be 
mobile. This can allow us to set up your 
vehicle differently by positioning the 
portable oven next to your vehicle and 
cooking the pizza, not physically on 
board (where they will do all the 
activities).
