Hi,
I’d ask one of the Pizza places where they get their wood from. They all have big piles. When you find out please post the information here.pacificobob - 1-28-2023 at 09:06 AM
We use mesquite in the pizza oven. I get it from rancheros. If i see a ranch truck in town with a load i talk with them, or just drive up in the
sierras and ask around.. I have huge wood piles of other types of wood but that gets used in the fireplace.... nothing quite like cooking with
mesquite.AKgringo - 1-28-2023 at 09:40 AM
I don't know if Eucalyptus trees grow in Baja California, but it is an excellent wood for cooking!pacificobob - 1-28-2023 at 05:15 PM

A number of countries use eucalyptus almost exclusively for cooking. Grows fast burns hot. The peace corps did extensive plantings of eucalyptus for
that reason.wilderone - 1-29-2023 at 11:01 AM
A better alternative:
Wood pellets are perfect for pizza ovens. Pellets light easily, burn efficiently, are a great heat source that can reach high temperatures, produce
very little ash waste and provide a light smoke to give that stone baked oven taste. To make the best pizza, though, you’ll need the best wood
pellets. Wood pellets are a great fuel source and enhance the taste of your pizza. For example, you can make your pizza have a smokey flavor or a
sweet flavor depending on your personal taste. Common tree materials used for wood pellets include wood chips, tree bark, and oak wood.
