Steel is significantly more conductive than ceramic, meaning it transfers heat to your dough much faster. This results in a crispier crust and better browning in a fraction of the time, and unlike ceramic stones, the steel is virtually unbreakable.

Yes, the steel arrives with a food-grade oil coating that should be washed off before the first use. Like a cast-iron skillet, it benefits from occasional seasoning with a thin layer of oil to maintain its naturally non-stick surface and prevent rust.

Absolutely. The steel is designed to withstand high heat, making it an excellent surface for grilling pizzas or using it as a flat-top griddle for smash burgers and vegetables.

At 16 pounds, the steel is heavy and sturdy, which is exactly what allows it to retain and radiate heat so effectively. While it is substantial, it is designed to be a permanent fixture on your oven rack, so you rarely need to move it.

Yes, it is highly versatile. Beyond pizza and bread, you can use it as a stovetop griddle for breakfast items, an induction plate, or even chill it in the freezer to use as a cold surface for serving chilled appetizers.

With dimensions of 14"x16", it fits most standard home ovens. We recommend measuring your oven rack before purchasing to ensure you have enough clearance for airflow around the edges of the steel.
