twharton Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 NO FAIR....scratch my baking stone order....MUST HAVE BAKING STEEL!
Bruce Pearson Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 Sign me up also looks good How much does this puppy weigh??
CeramicChef Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 @DennisLinkletter - what does this add that I don't get with my baking stone? I'm intrigued.
CeramicChef Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 @Bruce Pearson - won't break anything but my dadgummed foot/toes/ankle and neck from falling down after trying to hop around on one foot!
DennisLinkletter Posted July 23, 2016 Author Report Posted July 23, 2016 It weighs about 10 kilos / 22 lbs. It will have the oil gutter moved over about 1/2" dead center left and right where there will be holes in the side for some grabbers we will ship with the steel.. It has such a high heat transfer you can bake things quickly at lower temps than other stones.. This is the only way to do the cracker crust pizzas.. 5
Bruce Pearson Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 Hey Ken if you can jump around on 1 foot while holding that thing you're a better man than me lol. sign me up for one I might as well get everything for DB
dstr8 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 Darn it...bad timing I like the shape and handles compared to my Baking Steel. I just might have to have it though Its my favorite method for making burgers. Smash burgers rule especially on thick plate steel! Nice job Dennis!

EGGARY Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 Now that is really nice. Any concerns about rusting or is it make of Stainless Steel ? What is the size ?
Stile88 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Posted July 31, 2016 When will this going to be available to buy @DennisLinkletter And what is the price?? 1
DennisLinkletter Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Posted July 31, 2016 It is about 18" wide.. We are in the process of testing a textured surface for the pizza side, fine tuning the tools used to pick them up from holes in the sides and learning about seasoning. They will be pre-seasoned from the factory. They are A36 Mild (low-carbon) steel, this radiates heat best, much better than stainless for this application.. (think cast iron skillet). It just means you need to dry them after washing. 4
tony b Posted July 31, 2016 Report Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) For all you folks out there that don't speak metallurgy, this is not stainless steel; so it will need to be taken care of like your cast iron or carbon steel pans, or it will rust - quickly! Edited July 31, 2016 by tony b 2
Stile88 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Posted July 31, 2016 You had me at stainless lol not sure about this now yes if you dont season after every cleanup it will rust fast 1
