The Original Baking Steel

The Baking Steel is significantly more conductive than ceramic, meaning it transfers heat to your dough much faster. This results in a superior, blistered crust and a juicier interior in a fraction of the time.

It comes pre-seasoned and ready to use right out of the box. To maintain the non-stick surface, simply wipe it clean after use and apply a light coat of oil, just as you would with a cast-iron skillet.

Yes, the Baking Steel is designed to withstand high temperatures and is perfectly safe for use on both gas and charcoal grills. It is an excellent way to turn your grill into a high-performance pizza oven.

No, it is not dishwasher safe. You should clean it by hand with warm water and a stiff brush or scraper, then dry it thoroughly to prevent rust.

Unlike ceramic stones, which are prone to thermal shock, this solid steel plate is virtually indestructible and will not crack under high heat or sudden temperature fluctuations.

The steel weighs 16 pounds and measures 16 by 14.25 inches. It is designed to fit comfortably on the standard rack of most residential ovens, though you should measure your oven interior to ensure a proper fit.
