Hi,

has anybody brought a piza stone for their weber and if they have how often do you use it/ was it worth the cost?

Thanks

We have one for the oven that I've used on the weber.

Its good! You can do it directly on the fire if you want it charred, but the stone gives a more regular finish.

Just get a cheap one and try it out. Mine didn't crack but some might. Not sure its worth getting a weber branded one.

If you want a pizza stone that will survive nuclear temps then check out big green egg UK, the stones are super thick and made of the same material as the Egg

Not cheap but well worth the money, there is a guarantee on them too against cracking in use

Or the KJ one which is cheaper but I imagine will be designed to handle high heat also

I think it comes with a 3 year warranty.

I got the Outdoorchef one it' really thick and heavy (a bit like me really ) but expensive

I just used the tray from my microwave/convection voen. It got HOT. The pizza was done in 5 minutes.

I liked it but the family said it was too smoky.

No point in spending £30 on a Weber one unless you are sure you are going to keep using it.

I've read somewhere that if you stand the pizza stone on some empty cans it allows air to flow underneath it
stopping it from cracking.

I have bought a cheap one from TK-Maxx (£10) to try this at some stage.

I have the Weber Pizza stone. I have to say it works really well and makes a great Pizza. Personally as great as it is to have I don’t use it all that often. So maybe a cheaper one would be better as then you don’t mind just not using it as much. But over all a good bit of kit to have.

It's also great for heating up rolls and pastries etc

Just been into Homebase (Solihull), and they are selling pizza stones for £2.99 along with a lot of BBQ
stuff. Picked up Weber tool holder £1.99, warming rack £4.99 and some cooking planks and wood chips.
