Customer of the Month

Meet our Customer of the Month for November 2025!

Meet Scott: A backyard pizza oven enthusiast! Discover his Authentic Pizza Oven story and get his favorite Vermont pizza recipe!

Hello friends, my name is Scott, and I was born and raised in Haverhill Massachusetts.

I’ve always had a love of food and cooking. If we had a gathering or any type of party, you would always find me slaying the grill. I also enjoy open fire cooking depending on the size of the gathering. Getting a Pizza oven has been on my mind for many years but never pulled the trigger. 

Customer of the Month: Colin Casey & The Saucer Detroit

Detroit, Michigan — a city known for grit, hustle, and creativity.

For Colin Casey, it’s also the place where his pizza journey began. Growing up in the neighborhoods of Detroit, Colin and his team dreamed of building something bigger than themselves and making it out of the hood in a positive way. Pizza became that path.

Inspired by legends like Chef Chris Bianco, Colin studied the craft, experimented endlessly, and poured his heart into every dough ball, every sauce, and every pie.

Pizza Master Spotlight: Chef Chris Bianco

At Authentic Pizza Ovens, we love celebrating our customers — from backyard pizza enthusiasts to culinary pros. And while we usually feature a Customer of the Month, this month we're doing something a little different.

We're thrilled to highlight a true pizza pioneer, someone who has inspired an entire generation of wood-fired cooking: Chef Chris Bianco.

Customer of the Month: James Berger & Family

At Authentic Pizza Ovens, we believe that a wood-fired oven is more than just a cooking tool—it’s the heart of a home, a space where memories are made, and traditions are passed down.

Every month, we highlight one of our incredible customers who has brought that vision to life.

This June, we’re proud to feature James Berger and his family from Glen Burnie, Maryland, whose dream of building a backyard community gathering space was inspired by a small village in Uganda—and made possible with their Ventura Preto Premium oven.
