Will it bake fresh pizza on a pan?

I have had several of these and use them so much they just wear out, the only pizzas that do not work are the fresh types like Papa Murphys because of the pan and the rising crust kind because of limited space to rise. The pizza cookers that have a turntable do well with these but the Papa Murphys needs to be frozen first or it sticks to the pan so you may as well buy the frozen I guess.

No. It will damage both anti-stick Teflon layer as well as the metallic body of the pan.. As its non-stick, simply slip the pizza off the pan over a wooden cutting board and cut it with pizza rolling blade..

use a pizza screen instead of a pizza pan if you prefer the brown and crisp type of crust

I imagine it could since cast iron has a high melting point. However, I think the pizzas would be in the very small size range. And messing around with a very hot cast iron pan while trying to put a second pizza on it sounds like trouble in the making(do not put it on a stone surface or you may have thermal cracks in your counter). I would recommend a pizza stone for the task (more surface area).

If you want a crispy crust I always bake the pizza right on the oven rack and just use the pan to retrieve it from the oven. Hope this helps! I love...love the pan though.

You can knead bread on this certainly or make pizza on it. But if you are making pizza on it and kneading pizza dough on it it will be getting covered with flour and bits of dough will stick to it and you do not want that. It needs to be clean and smooth and oiled.

Short answer: Yep.Longer answer: Yep. Just keep the heat on medium-low, and wait for the pan to heat up.

If using in oven, most ovens only go to 550 if lucky. But since this is a Chicago style pizza pan, you would cook it longer and lower temps, in the 400s. As long as you put some oil on the pan, it will be fine and won't stick.

I usually take the pizza out of the pan and place it onto a cutting board and then cut it. In all honesty, I've left it in the pan and cut the pizza before and haven't had any problems - but I'm not going to push my luck.

I've never baked a pizza on this pan at 500 degrees nor would I recommend it. It's best to go with a pizza stone at that temperature.

The oven has a function called "convert" which allows you to put in any temp. and time and it will determine what time it will take. You can choose between baked goods, meat, casseroles, etc. There is also a menu function which probably has "baked potato" as an option. There is a separate pizza function which works well. Things come out as if they had been in a full-sized oven.

You betcha!!!! I even bought a pizza stone for this oven. I tell you it's a great deal. I use it all the time. You can fit a 1/4 sheet pan in it. Happy pizza making!!!

This is an industrial sized pizza oven. It heats up quickly and will cook fresh pizza as well as frozen. I love mine and highly recommend it. Please be aware that it is quite large.

The pizza pan has holes, a lot. So it may not be the best solution unless you are determined for "this pan" & "that grill". Then, while not impossible, it will take some adaptations and adjustment. For me it is an oven pan, if I were to grill a pizza with it on occasion I would use a cookie sheet as a buffer.

A lot of people suggest preheating cast iron before cooking. Especially when making pizza that is not possible since I spread the dough on the pan. I say no, not required.

With the right crust you should be fine. However, I always have a little liquid that leaks out when using this pan so I always put it on a baking sheet to make clean up easier. Hope that helps :)

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