    I see that you can still work magic on pizzas. Awesome job.

    It's a Pizza Que from Williams & Sonma, plate setter legs up, grate then pizza que baked at 475 until golden brown. I have had the same success on a friends XL by using plate setter legs up and just putting four bricks on the grate and a BGE pizza stone. The height and temp work great for me to get the bottom & top done at the same time.

    Are there any downsides to using the screen compared to putting directly on egg?  That seems a lot easier, but I like the idea of total exposure to the stone...

    No down side at all to using a screen, I worked in the # 1 voted pizza joint in my little home town in the early 70's and baked 100' s and 100's of pizza on screens,  they are less than 10.00 for a 16 inch screen and they make baking pizza very easy, I bake the pizza for the first 5/7 minutes on the screen than slide directly to the stone. Absolutely worth a try and highly recommend.

    I'll have to give this a try.  Do the screens typically have a temp they should not go above? Any chance they would melt on a 700 degree stone?

    Not sure on how high of temp they can withstand, I bake at 475/500 and they work perfect.

    Every time. You should just save a description so you can paste it in. 

    Nice pie as usual.
