Know before you buy

Yes, the cordierite construction is heat-resistant up to 1100°F, making it safe for use in residential ovens, pizza ovens, and on outdoor grills.
Simply rinse the stone with warm water and let it air dry completely. Because the surface is non-absorbent and glazed, you should avoid using soap or harsh scrubbers, as these can leave residues or damage the finish.
The stone measures 13 inches in diameter, but with the handles, the total width is 15-3/4 inches. Be sure to measure your oven rack to ensure you have enough clearance for the full width before purchasing.
Absolutely. Its even heat distribution makes it excellent for baking bread, pastries, and roasting vegetables. The glazed surface is particularly helpful for high-fat items like cookies, as it prevents grease from soaking into the stone.
