wood-fired

Heated by logs

Wood-fired describes cooking or heating that uses burning wood as fuel rather than gas or electricity.

The term typically appears with ovens, grills, and kilns: wood-fired pizza, a wood-fired brick oven.

Wood firing imparts distinctive smoky flavors and suggests traditional, artisanal methods.
