The Solo Stove Pi Prime is the propane-only sibling of the dual-fuel Pi, made for backyards that want Neapolitan-style pies in 90 seconds without sourcing kiln-dried hardwood. The cordierite stone hits 900F in about 15 minutes off a standard 20-lb LPG tank (good for roughly 20 hours of cooking), the demi-dome geometry circulates heat evenly so you get leopard-spotted crust without a hot side, and the panoramic 14-inch opening lets you turn pies one-handed with a peel.

Pros
- Cordierite stone hits a true 900F in about 15 minutes off a standard 20-lb propane tank, no wood-sourcing
- Demi-dome geometry actually circulates heat evenly, no hot-side rotating required
- 14-inch panoramic opening lets you turn pies one-handed with a peel, the oversight on most home ovens
- Stainless steel body lives outside under a cover, no need to drag it in and out
Cons
- Propane-only, not dual-fuel, so no wood-fired smoke flavor without buying the wood-burning Solo Pi instead
Frequently asked questions
How long does a standard 20-lb propane tank last?
About 20 hours of cooking at the High setting, per Solo Stove. In real backyard use that's roughly 60 to 80 pizzas before you swap tanks, more than a full summer of weekend pizza nights.
Does it need a special pizza stone or is one included?
The cordierite pizza stone is included. Cordierite handles thermal shock from rapid 70F to 900F heating without cracking, which is why it's the standard for portable pizza ovens. Replacements are sold separately if you ever crack one.
Can I cook anything besides pizza in it?
Yes. Owners use it for fast-seared steaks, blistered shishito peppers, naan, focaccia, and reverse-sear finishes on chicken. Anything that benefits from 700F-plus direct heat in under three minutes works.
Does it really make Neapolitan-style pizza or is it marketing speak?
Genuine Neapolitan-style. The 900F stone temperature and dome convection are the two requirements for true 60-to-90-second leopard-spot crust. Whether your dough technique gets you there is the variable, not the oven.
What's the difference between the Pi Prime and the regular Solo Stove Pi?
The regular Pi runs on both wood and gas with two separate burner inserts. The Pi Prime is propane-only, which makes it lighter, cheaper, faster to fire up, and easier to clean. Get the Pi Prime if you don't care about wood-smoke flavor.
