Re: Pizza Baking Steel
Deejay,
A guy at work said he had one of these and he quite like the performance. He is quite a good cook but he is also using this in a regular oven not a WFO so his max. temp in 500 degree F more or less. He said he like it better than his pizza stone. So since I have access to steel and plasma cutters I may try and make a proto type to try in my WFO.

Pizza Baking Steel
Anyone out there tried one of these?

they are recommended in the new Modernist Cuisine book as the best way to cook pizza in the oven. The folks at "slice" website (dedicated to pizza) rave about it

I put the quotes around the http:// part of the links so I don't get in trouble for spamming...
It looks like a pretty good advance in the oven cooking department. I am thinking about getting a 14" x 18" piece of steel from my local supplier as the poor mans version. But even that is $50, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has tried this approach!
Thx
Dennis
