MickeyTheShoe Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi All, has anyone used a 1/4 piece of steel as their top stone. If you have how did it go? Im wondering if it would help the undercarriage cook faster.

SmallBBQr Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Since getting a baking steel, I've never used a ceramic stones as the top stone since. Pizza crust is amazing. I also use it for smash burgers, searing tuna, searing steaks....you name it. Also works great in the oven. MickeyTheShoe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetDoc Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I haven't made one for my kamado yet but I did switch to a steel in the oven. I won't go back to ceramic either. The stone gives me the texture and color I've been looking for every time. On my steel I rounded all the corners/edges and sanded it smooth. After seasoning it like a cast iron pan it's pretty much non stick. Wish I had tried it sooner. MickeyTheShoe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought two 3/8" 8"X11" pieces of steel off ebay and have been using that. MickeyTheShoe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
