Cooking Pizza - Stone or No Stone?

Eggeneer,
yes - find a dealer who knows the product![p]Yes you need a pizza stone in addition to the setter. You can get by without a setter if you use a couple fire brick laying flat under the stone while all is sitting on the grate, but otherwise the setter doesn't have enough ceramic mass for uniform heat distribution.

Eggeneer,[p]Yes definitely use a pizza stone. Make sure you heat it up with platesetter.

Eggeneer,
I've made about 5 or 6 pizzas (thin crust) directly on the setter without a pizza stone. Haven't had a single problem. Make sure to sprinkle some cornmeal on it to prevent sticking. I do mine at around 400 to 425 for 15 to 20 minutes. Hope this helps. Enjoy your Za.

Eggeneer,[p]Use a stone. My plate setter is nasty over the years I have cooked with it. A pizza stone is specific for pizza and wont get mucked up with smoke, grease and ash from other cooks.[p]

Eggeneer,
Stone mandatory.
