After several failed attempts over the last few years, with a few good ones sprinkled in throughout, I finally was able to figure it out
If anyone needs a rolling endorsement for why the pizza peel is a must, please don't hesitate to ask! : )

Why is it a must?!

Looks good! Pizza looks really close to the coals though - have you ever tried raising it higher in the dome? I get good reflective heat that way and it helps cook the toppings before the crust is burnt.Milton, GA

Oh....
The first and only time I made pizza I put the pie in the stone and proceed to prepare the pizza, the stuff was HOT.
But I had beer...a lot, to help ease the process. -
@GoooDawgs good point, i've got it on the platesetter (legs down) with the nest feet on top of that... will likely move it up on the next round

If it works for you, then great. I still don't see why its a must. Been sliding it off a pizza sheet with parchment paper for years and that works for me.

Just bought an Egg? Here is what you get to look forward to now:
Plate Setter, FlameBoss 200, Spider, PSWOO-CI, Additional Rig Shelf for dome cooking, Thermapen, iGrill2, Cast Iron, Blackstone, Cooking Accessories for the Blackstone, Cover for the Egg and the Blackstone, shopping for Rub like a fine wine or IPA, and a new fascination with lump and what brand is the best-all to be debated every Friday Night. Next desires-Joetisceriie, Adjustable Rig, Grillmates, table and more eggs

@Griffin good feedback there, this was moreso helpful for moving the pizza off and on the stone.. plus it was a gift from my brother-in-law so my value vs. investment is in the black!Nashville, TN
