Alternative Baking Stones

edited November -0001 in EggHead Forum
Hello,

I was just curious of anyone has much experience with using baking stones besides the one BGE sells?

Specifically, I have read good things on baking sites about:

The Baker's Catalogue Pizza Baking Stone (http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/items/pizza-baking-stone) and

The Fibrament D (http://www.bakingstone.com)

Thanks for your help.

    Most folks just use the BGE stone, which are significantly thicker than most others. Several people have had the Pampered Chef ones break after a few uses.
    But there is nothing wrong with trying something different.

    you can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it
  • The King Arthur stone is very popular and should be reliable. OTOH, some people go to Home Depot and buy unglazed tile squares for less than $2.

    I do all of my bread/pizza making on firebrick splits, they can also be used for other things like stacking grids, etc.

    I have the Fibrament-D and absolutely love it. It is 3/4" thick like the BGE but holds heat better than ceramic stones. I have one for my oven and one for my egg. I have done bread and pizza on both and they turn out great.

    Note: If you buy one for the egg, make sure you get the stone with the metal pan underneath. Called a grill stone.
