Do you get the grill hot to use the cleaning stone?

No. I use it on the grill before I heat it. I also find it works better if the stone and grill are dry. It really works well. It is also great for cleaning the gross build up on the bottom of old pots and pans.

No. The flame is below a heat shield that evenly distributes the heat. The grill is ready to go out of the box.

We allow the grills to cool, put the in sink with soapy water for a few minutes then scrub with the brush. Always comes clean without a problem.

Yes, warm(not too warm) soapy water can be used to wash the stone. No smell of the stone bleeds onto food cooked on the stone.

I heat up the grill on high for 15 to 30 minutes before I cook, then brush the grill and I have no problem with cleaning. I started this the very first time I cooked. I do not brush off after cooking only before when the grill is at max temperature.

Most likely. I purchased the stone to use on my weber. It needed an expensive attachment to work on grill so I returned it. I ordered a Lodge cast iron pizza pan. works both places and I prefer it to the stones. The price was reasonable also.

The legs do not appear to get much more than warm. However, something to consider is the recommended cleaning function is to run the grill on high for about 15 minutes after each use to turn any residue to ash. The grill gets very hot during this function, but even then, the legs are only warm.

Hi Carol, That will not be a problem from the standpoint of potentially damaging the stone; the stone can take enormous heat. Do note, however, that in heating the stone that fast, that you still want to get the inside of the stone hot and you must also make sure your grill leaves sufficient area around the stone to get the dome hot before you put a pizza on the stone. If you get the stone super hot and the dome is either not hot enough, or by opening the dome, you allow the heat to escape, you have a high risk of burning the crust without getting the toppings done. This is especially true in the super hot range and the most frequent cause of it is due to lack of side clearance around the stone; the stone gets 800-1000 degrees and the dome is only about 200--charcoal crust and barely warm toppings. As with anything, the hotter you go, there might be some trial and error, but the stone definitely will hold up. Thanks for your interest. Joe Hurly Falls Culinary, Inc.

I clean my grill by burning the residue from cooking, letting it turn to ash and then brush it off. Works great though obviously it uses more propane to do this.

I would assume that it would get hot enough but may not have even heat distribution with the burners being spaced apart from each other. The gas grill works well since it seems to have even heat across the grill grates

I don't know why you couldn't. As long as it is preheated gradually, it shouldn't be an issue. It will likely, however, be difficult to rid the stone of the smoke odor, if that is a consideration.

Yes, just give it a rinse and pre heat to high before grilling. Before grilling each subsequent time, be sure to clean with a good grill brush.

You didn't use cooking spray on there did you? We have used our's many many times even out on the grilland only use flour under the crust and never had anything stick.We have never preheated our stone and still never had anything stick.

Clean the grill while it is still hot with water and soap. Rub rub rub and done. It will clean easily.

Yes, I agree with Michael. The handles allow you to easily carry the stone. However, they get really hot on the grill, and I usually use the peel to remove the finished pizza from the stone and let the stone cool before removing it from the grill. But the entire stone plus holder go on the grill and heat before the pizza goes on. Be aware that if the stone gets too hot, the pizza will burn upon contact. I usually heat it on high (on a gas grill) and then turn it down to medium before I put the pizza on.

No. The plates clean up with a paper towel. It's non stick so it's easy. The grill is a perfect size for one person.
