Ptslmbttx 1 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Help! I had a mishap with my dojo while attempting to bake a pizza. I don’t think I used enough flour on the dough, and the dough was extra sticky and wouldn’t come off the keel. Most of the sauce and cheese spilled onto the pizza stone. Is it ruined, or can it be cleaned? I would appreciate any help/advice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BURGER MEISTER 517 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 600+ degrees for about an hour cleans everything pretty good. I try not to go too much over 600 because basically I'm a chicken and paid way too much for these things. Ptslmbttx 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Topher 468 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 +1 for what @BURGER MEISTERsaid. If your oven is ready for a self-clean cycle, I imagine you could toss the pizza stone in the oven during the self-clean BURGER MEISTER 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jtemple 41 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Yep, a clean cycle in the grill will turn all that stuff into ash. Then you just brush it off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is what I do, both with the heat deflectors and the pizza stone. Dirty side down for each cook. andiamhappy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keeperovdeflame 10,077 Posted Thursday at 04:58 AM Share Posted Thursday at 04:58 AM I purchased multiple stones so I always have at least one clean. I do a rotation moving the dirtiest stone to the deflector position dirty face down during a 600 deg pizza cook. Flip the stone over during the next pizza cook, clean the other side, and you have a completely clean stone. Keep that up every time you cook pizza and you will always be ready for the next cook with a clean side to cook your pies on. I have four 14" stones I keep in constant rotation . No need to go above 600 as someone said. I usually cook my pies and then let my Egg sit at 600 for an extra 20 min or so, before I shut it down. Pizza cooks also keep your fire box a chalky white clean. Happy Cooking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
