Pizza Stone

[Partial]

Anybody use one of these?

How do I do these two things:

1. Transfer pizza dough from counter to stone when it is still somewhat sticky after shaping

2. After pre-cooking dough, how do I remove pizza dough to apply ingredients without removing stone?

Roll out the dough with flour on your counter, put some corn meal on the peel, put dough on the peel...slide dough off of peel onto stone. Take dough out using peel.

They are the only way to make pizza at home. Pre heat the oven to about 400-450 and follow Roarks simple directions. Do you have a good dough recipe?

The pizza tastes amazing on its own on a cookie sheet. The element of the equation missing is the peel. How much does one of those run?

This sauce is good but could be better

Any insight on either? My pizza is so effin good but could go to the next level. Got a pizza stone for my birthday and pizza experiments.

Anybody have a link to a peel that can hold a 16" pizza diameter? I'm not seeing anything on Amazon. Is the solution to make smaller pizza?

Years ago I bought a pampered chef pizza stone, and the second time using it I had it in the oven preheating and the fuckin thing blew up. POS

Now, if/when I have a pizza, most of the time it's grilled

Pizza stones are for those who don't have the best pizza in america in their city.

Ty does, Ty gave up his stone.

I use my stone for homemade bread. However I was leaving it in the oven permanently and it very quickly got quite dirty. Is there any way to clean them? Im considering leaving it in the oven during a cleaning cycle, but I fear the heat will crack it.

We've been using the same one for like 10 years. It's nice and easy and you never have to clean it.

My wife was cooking something that ended up exploding all over the stone. Brushed whatever char we could off of it, but the effects at qround zero are still there. My thoughts are that it doesn't matter a whole lot if it's charred or stained, but I would hate for those flavors to taint the bread that I worked so hard on. Maybe I'll just grab a silpat.

A buddy of mine had one of those the second year of college. Those things are money.

I agree on the pizzaz...that thing cures cancer.

As for the stone, they are quite nice, but expensive. Save yourself some money and just buy some quarry tile. It's the same exact thing.

Make sure that it's not glazed, and it will cost you about 2 bucks instead of 30 for a pizza stone. Not to mention it will be square and a bit larger for other tasks. If you can't find a big enough slab, just get a few pieces.
