Product Description
The 48" x 36" Cordierite deck of the Il Forno Classico FC-516 gas deck oven from Bakers Pride brings the authentic experience of a traditional wood-fired brick oven to your kitchen. Its open-flame viewing design and 140,000 BTU power deliver the signature ambiance and performance you need to create delicious, stone-baked pizzas and artisan breads.
