Tried a seafood cook in the wood fired oven just to see how they would hold up. Simply awesome. Up to 1000 degrees. Non stick. Light weight. Built in drip zones and large sized. Sorry about the extra photos more so trying to show the size and what they can hold.
5 whole claws of crab legs
3 lbs large 21/ shrimp
1 lbs large scallops
2 lbs lobster
For reference. All fit in the pirogue boat.

On a separate note, I have a cast iron oyster pan. Haven’t tried it yet. Need to get it out and use it.

As I said above I have not used it yet so I can’t say how it performs. But it’s a heavy, solid piece of iron. There are other manufacturers out there. But mine is the Outset in the link I posted. They also make a smaller version.

Thank you.SGH said:
If you put it loaded on the egg, how long will it take to get hot?
I like my cooked oysters Drago's style. -

Again, I have not used mine yet so I can not comment on its performance.

I have seen a few videos and the alway preheated the cast iron oyster pan first when doing Drago style. They had all the ingredients layer out and worked fast.GregW said:

The Oyserbed products above, IMO, are so much nicer than using cast iron for oysters. Lighter, heat faster and clean easier.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
I have done it both ways. Preheat the pan for steaks, sears, etc. Everything else just shove it in there as needed.Columbus, Ohio

Cooking in your pizza oven and the Egg are 2 different monsters. With the Oysterbed and the hot pizza stone floor, I bet it heats up real fast. I use mine in my Ooni pizza oven and they heat super fast. Excellent post!jdMyers said:I have done it both ways.

The food looks amazing, but I’d be leery of using aluminum pans in your WFO. The melting point of aluminum (and most alloys) is around 1, 220 F. It is very easy to approach those temperatures in a WFO and it may start off-gassing as you approach those temperatures.If you are staying well below the melting point I’d think you’re good.MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

I agree. On the wfo Temps. But getting better at it. Raise oven temp to produce coals then cook after it backs down.Columbus, Ohio

If you're cooking at high heat with that thing, do you need to season and reseason it?SGH said:On a separate note, I have a cast iron oyster pan. Haven’t tried it yet. Need to get it out and use it.It's a 302 thing . . . -
I cleaned and seasoned it. Then heated up to temp. Allowed it to cool. And cleaned it again. Now. Just spray Pam or olive oike etc. Heat and cook. It works so wellColumbus, Ohio

I have posted on a few occasions that I have several of the Steven Raichlin oyster racks. I am not a fan of Raichlin, but the oyster rack works well. The Raichlin rack isn't available currently.
The racks lend themselves to my style of inferno grilling.
