    I've been waiting to see some results of your purchase. Looks great an always fun to experiment.
    Feel free to make the trip to Ottawa, and I'll offer to take the little one off your hands.
    Haha, you'll have to pry it off my dead fingers! This is an ideal size for home use, the big guys are way too heavy and will take more charcoal and longer to preheat, also more wasted heat after you're done.

    Little Steven 's neck of the woods, if there's enough interest you guys can do a team buy next spring. @paqman may also be interested?

    I'm surprised MOD hasn't purged this thread yet 
    :D

    I have both baking steel and stones.  At the same temp, a pizza might take 5 minutes on the stone but the bottom be burned to a crisp on the steel in 2. 

    The thermal transfer of steel is an order of magnitude higher than that of ceramics.  Ceramics are good insulators, like glass. 

    So what happens with the steel is the convection and radiation heat on the air boundary of the dough cooks in a slower ratio to the fast diffusion/conduction of the dough-metal contact. 

    In effect, dough will cook more unevenly unless you change the design and keep the steel at a much lower temp than the air.

    I might be interested in a group buy. Not sure I would have it delivered here....

    They are probably out of stock this time of year anyway.  OK we need Little Steven to report back.

    Plan on attending Dickson's Toronto eggfest first week in June, and pick up the tandoor at the same time?
