Grillmeister Gas-Pizzaofen XL

The bigger Grillmeister, 8 kW, outdoor only. Same family as the 4 kW oven, not a Silvercrest. The stone is 40 x 40 cm cordierite, 1.5 cm thick. Lidl prints pizzas up to 40 cm and 450 C in 15 minutes. Waldi's note, quoted by RUHR24, is the useful one: the roof is low and the burner is close, so a pizza that actually bakes sits nearer 30 cm than the edge of the stone. Journal du Geek cooked in about two minutes once it was hot and said the launch takes practice. Hose and regulator in the box. 50 mbar in Germany. Folding feet, window, wooden handle, piezo. Sold out on most Lidl shops through summer 2026. This is not the 4 kW model and not an indoor oven.

How this oven bakes

  1. Preheat on full flame about 15 minutes. Then launch a 30 cm pie, not a 40 cm one that kisses the burner.

  2. Turn the pie. The U-burner is at the back. Two minutes is Journal du Geek on a hot stone, not a cold start.

  3. This is the 8 kW XL. The 4 kW Grillmeister is a different, smaller oven. Silvercrest SPE 2400 A1 is the indoor electric.

  4. Outdoor only. Keep the stone dry before the first light. A wet 1.5 cm slab will crack.

Pros

  • 8 kW and a 1.5 cm stone. That is twice the burner of the 4 kW Grillmeister and a thicker floor.
  • Hose, regulator, window, wooden handle, folding feet. You do not buy a separate kit to light it.
  • Journal du Geek got about two minutes on a hot stone. That is a real outdoor bake, not a kitchen 400 C clamshell.

Cons

  • Lidl prints 40 cm pies. Waldi, via RUHR24, says the roof and the burner make a usable pizza closer to 30 cm. Believe the roof.
  • Mostly sold out after the April 2026 window. Outdoor only. German bottles 50 mbar. No Amazon listing.
  • Journal du Geek: at that heat the pie is done in barely two minutes. The launch takes a hand. This is not a set-and-forget box.
