Pizza Stone for Oven, Grill, BBQ - Round 5/8 Inch Extra Thick Baking Stone w Safe Even Heating- XL 16.5" Pan for Crispy Crust, Heavy Duty Cordierite

The CucinaPro Pizza Stone is a versatile and reliable option for those looking to achieve the perfect crispy crust on their pizzas. Made from cordierite, this stone can withstand temperatures up to 550°F, making it suitable for use in ovens, grills, and BBQs. Customers have reported using it on a charcoal grill with temperatures well above 600 degrees without any issues. One common question customers had was whether the stone needed to be seasoned before use. The manufacturer states that it is not necessary or recommended. The stone will gradually darken with use and any residual cornmeal or seasoning can be easily wiped off after it cools. Another important point to note is that the stone should not be washed with soap. The porous nature of the stone can absorb the soap, leading to soapy residue on future dishes. Instead, a wet cloth with water should be used to clean the stone, and it should be allowed to air dry. Customers also mentioned that it is best to let the stone cool down completely before cleaning to avoid any potential cracks. In terms of performance, customers were overall satisfied with the CucinaPro Pizza Stone. It provided a nice, crispy crust and evenly browned the pizza as if it were cooked in a brick oven. The size of the stone was also appreciated, as it allowed for larger pizzas to be made. Additionally, some customers mentioned using it as a second deflector and were happy with its performance in that aspect as well. However, there were a few negative reviews. One customer mentioned that they rinsed the stone off and left it to dry overnight, only to find it covered in fungus the next morning. Another customer expressed disappointment with the product support, stating that the "product support" link provided did not actually exist. Overall, the CucinaPro Pizza Stone is a dependable option for achieving a perfect crispy crust on your homemade pizzas. Just be sure to follow the care instructions and avoid using soap to clean it.
