I bought some perforated pizza pans and am wondering if I can use them directly on the stone. Thanks!

The stone works best by itself. No need for a pan and this stone is for the barbecue.

Yes you can put them on the stone but it will not give you the crispness. You can always remove the pizza from the pan and cook it the rest of the way on the stone.

The idea is to use the stone as your pan. Put a piece of parchment paper on top with your pizza on it and off you go. Makes the best crust.

I've touched mine to my pizza steel with my oven at max temp. I think it should be fine to use provided it isn't there for any length of time.

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.

NO! You will need to use pot holders or oven mitts to extract the stone from the oven, and then set it onto the cooling rack/handles for transport to the table, etc.

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).

Yes you can. I use a small "sauce" crock pot that came with my large pot, and it is perfect. Watch the amount of water you put in, the more water, the hotter the stones. I fill the water level so it covers about half way up the rocks, may need to experiment a bit....Goodluck!

I don't see that it would be any problem for the stone, but you might want to check with the toaster oven manufacturer...

I don't think it would be a problem at all even if your peel has an uneven super sharp edge. The stones are porous, but even if you scratched the surface they would still perform the same. I don't see that a metal peel would hang up on the stones. You can always ask Joe, the vendor. He's a nice guy and will answer any questions. Happy pizza making!!! YUM!

Perforated pans have small holes covering most of the surface area of the pan. These pans a great for even browning of bread crusts and pastry dough. It allows for steam to escape as well it allows more of the hot oven air to circulate around what you are baking.

Yes- it works well that way. The pizza cooks really well on the preheated stone.

Yes you can, you don't have to use the rack just the stone and make sure you heat the stone in the oven before placing the pizza on it

That's just the way it is with a pizza stone. Let it go. Scrubbing it with water can harm it. If you put it in the oven while it still has moisture in it it could crack. Just wipe it off with a damp sponge and let it air dry.

Use the stone as a template to cut a round of parchment paper. Put your dough on the paper that you've placed on the peel. Put paper and pizza on hot stone to bake. The paper will scorch, but not catch fire. You will have a perfectly crisp crust and zero sticking...the pizza will slide right off the paper!! Hope that helps!

I put a pizza stone on the rack. It works well for many things. If you are cooking item after item the stone holds the heat and provides a smooth surface.

You can but it will dull your pizza cutter. I transfer it to a board to cut

I have. I purchased a round pizza stone and put the baskets under the stone. The flavor in incredible especially if you use wood chips or hickory charcoal. You do not need the kettle pizza ring.

I wouldn't. You might score the stone and make your cutter dull.Cut the pizza on a wooden or other "knife friendly" cutting board.
