I have fixed frozen pizzas in the oven andit came out great. You can do maot anything you would use a regular oven for in the Turbo. I have also fixed frozen corn dogs in it. You can steam veggies if they are covered like in a glass container with a bit of water. Hope this helps.

I tried cooking vegetables, but they did get too dry. I think you could steam them in a covered dish, but it's probably quicker to steam them on the stovetop. I haven't done a grilled cheese, but I would guess that it would turn out fine if you buttered the outside of the bread well and turned it over once one side is browned.

Dan,can't say I ever did a grilled cheese.I have ;however did a pizza and that turned out fine. Steaming vegetables never attempted. The oven is a nice touch to have in the kitchen.

I think you can grill just about anything on it, we do hotdogs and chicken breast tenders, you can marinate your meat first, also you don't have to do meat, if vegetarian you can grill veggies, it is totally non-stick surface, you can also grill sandwiches. It is very easy to operate, you plug it in and wait for the green light to come on, it is now ready. We can grill up to five foot long hot dogs or maybe 6 or 7 regular size at a time. It is big enough to grill two large hamburger or veggie patties or four small ones at a time. It is super fast and does not heat up the kitchen, so we use it a lot during the summer. I usually wipe it clean with a damp paper towel. Or use a sponge with water and a squirt of dish soap then a damp paper towel. I think you can grill just about anything with it. I love mine!

I use it on a gas grill. Not sure of how it would work in a oven, especially if the burners are on the top. I would also recommend if you are think of trying--a drip pan because there is a lot of juice that drips. Not a big deal for the grill, but it could make a serious mess of your oven and/or cause a fire

I have not used it for pizza, just outside on the gas grill, always preheated and it works great.. BUT I suggest you preheat the stone, that way your pizza will bake evenly.

I bought a thin metal pizza peel from Amazon and that was key. Once the oven gets hot, it is awkward (and hot) to muck with the top; much better to slide the pizza in. I also find I need to rotate the pizza once during cooking for even cooking, and the thin metal peel makes this a piece of cake. If you make the pizza in advance, use corn meal or some other strategy to ensure the pizza can slide easily from the peel into oven unit (perhaps even freezing it a little). All that said, the Pronto works great. Recently made a wonderful pan pizza in it as well.

Hi! The oven is capable of reaching 900F which is higher than what you need even for pizza. Best regards, Eugene.

The oven has a pizza stone for making "standard" pizza. It works quite well. I love it! It also comes with a teflon coated pan for "deep dish" pizza with I never use. I don't care for deep dish pizza.

There are specific points below the grill where you place the stone (so, below grill, above charcoal). I put a pan of water to help keep things moist on top of the stone. I plan to try to use the stone directly ON the grill to grill pizza (so it's a bit farther from the heat - crust burned when I tried it at lower level) -- I have not tried this yet, but think it should work.

I've done gooey pizza on it. The non-stick is excellent and an easy release. If you want to see if meatloaf will work on it, test a hamburger size of the prepared meat on the pan. If that gets stuck in the holes, you know the meatloaf won't work. I have a feeling you'll find the non-stick is forgiving.

I do not see a problem with that as long as you keep the wind off it. Mine will reach 900 on a hot day, but I have found that 900 is to hot to cook a pizza in this oven. Mine come out good at around 700-800. At 900 I completely burned one up. This oven takes a little practice to get use to baking with it. I believe my review will help you if you buy the proper size peel for this item. I had trouble with my dough raising to much causing it to undercooked in this oven. I have ordered a pizza docker. Which does not pierce the dough, but rather pinches it together like the two side of a quilt. This helps keep the dough from raising to much when baking. Hope this helps you!

no crust.. after cooking you have to put on the grill or oven for this to occur

I don't see why not as long as your oven is not hotter than 500 degrees. We made pizza on the grill with the grill mats and they came out great....nice and crispy crusts. Enjoy. It's a product everyone should have!

I have made many grilled cheese sandwiches with it, along with Ruebens and other hot sandwiches. Just make sure you adjust the spacer or it will smash your sandwich.

This is our second grill ( we left the other one in the garage and it got moldy). We love it for grilling steaks etc. we are not allowed to use gas so this is the next best thing. Grilling steak tonight and I know it will be great. You have to make sure to turn it on to heat for a while before you grill. Also have the steaks at room temperature.

I have gone to 450 - no problems. Works great. I preheat the pan in the oven then bake my pizza on it. Crust comes out nice and crisp. I have not used it over fire yet but plan on doing so definitely this summer. Cast iron is used at camp fires so I don't know why there would be a problem using it on the grill. I have also used this pan for cooking several different seafood items at one time in the oven. Highly recommend.
