It’s National Pizza Day!

I'm normally not a big fan of days set up to celebrate inanimate objects, but my love of pizza vastly overwhelms my dislike of arbitrary holidays.

Pizza is delicious. It is fantastic after a hard day at work, a long night out, and in the morning when you need a cold slice of pick-me-up.

Few things bring as much joy to as many people as pizza. Whether you’re ordering from Domino’s, picking up a slice from your favorite local joint, or making a personal pie from scratch at home, pizza has a way of making any situation at least 40% more enjoyable.

To celebrate National Pizza Day, I rounded up some of my favorite pizza-centric cooking gadgets and accessories. Take a look and see if there’s anything you’d like to add to your kitchen.

A stovetop pizza oven

The Pizzacraft Stovetop Pizza Oven is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets for pizza lovers because it allows anyone to turn their home into a pizzeria. Capable of reaching temperatures upward of 600 degrees, it can cook the perfect pizza in just six minutes.

A pizza oven for your grill

If you prefer to do your cooking outside, you can turn your charcoal grill into a pizza oven with the help of this attachment from Kettle Pizza.

Safe for your grill or your oven, this pizza stone is the perfect surface upon which to create your pizza masterpiece. It’s designed to distribute heat and cook evenly so your crust has the crunch that can be tough to get from your standard homemade pies.
