Pizza Stone

[goberpiles]

Hey guys I would like to get a Pizza stone to use on my Weber Original Kettle Premium 57cm, anyone have one that works pretty well they can share where they got it?

You'll need one that can take the heat. Weber make they're own which should be easy enough to find. Alternatively you can get the Kamado Joe one or like me the Big Green Egg version. Others use steel in stead of a stone but personally I prefer a stone, for me it just tastes and works better.

Would the Kamado Joe one fit? seems a good price

[JEC]

Yes should fit fine, most weber kettles are larger than Kamado's anyway. Best used on a kettle with the ring of fire method (coals arranged around the outside of the kettle and all lit) rather than direct heat on the stone in my experience.

I've been using an Andrew James pizza stone for years in the oven. It's absolutely soaked through with cheese grease by now, but it's still going They're £9.99 on Amazon

The weber is likely to be much hotter then an oven, I did look at that one.

"Soaked through with cheese grease" thank you, this will be the title of my next album!

I've used it at 520F with no issues whatsoever. Don't see why it couldn't go hotter, but the choice is entirely yours

Hi
I use old storage heater bricks, with my vortex underneath and the top part of a 45 gal drum with a slot cut out to load the pizza through, works a treat with minimal expense.

Cheers

I currently have 3 pizza stones, I have 1 weber stone as well as 2 that are from Robert Dias, The Robert Dias ones were £9.99 each and work perfect, are smooth on both sides and are both working perfect..

The weber was a gift "so not to look a gift horse in the mouth" not as good as the others.

Has anyone seen these: http://www.lahacienda.co.uk/products/ba ... a-oven-box Look amazing but not sure about shelling out £100 on something that my basic stone could do.
