  • Why you should be using a pizza stone

    If you are anything like us, you love pizza. Unfortunately, standard ovens and grills were not designed to cook pizza well. They both miss the high initial heat required to crisp the dough and cook slowly, resulting in mushy dough pizzas that leave you wishing you had ordered from the pizza place down the street.

    Not using a pizza stone is holding you back on pizza night. While many pizza stones you buy at a home décor stone are not actual stone (those are typically unglazed clay), we make our soapstone pizza stones out of natural soapstone in a few thicknesses, diameters and custom sizes are available. You most likely want one small enough for a conventional oven rack to fit inside your home oven.
