Preheat your oven to 500°F with the steel in it for 45–60 minutes and cook a pizza in under 8 minutes. Achieve the same restaurant-quality results of a wood-fired oven using your standard oven at home!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16x16 FITS MOST STANDARD OVENS - At 16\" x 16\", this steel can cook pizzas up to 15\" in diameter and fits comfortably on most full-size oven racks. Measure your oven's interior depth before ordering to make sure this 16\" cooking steel will fit. The 14\" x 14\" is recommended for compact, apartment-sized, or European-style ovens. At 17.6 lbs, this baking steel has a similar weight to a large dutch oven or a case of soda, while being slightly lighter and easier to manage than the 14x20 steel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHOOSE THE RIGHT STEEL THICKNESS - The 1\/4\" is the most versatile thickness, providing the right balance between heat retention and weight for most home cooks. It handles everything from Neapolitan-style pizza to sourdough bread to frozen pies. The lightweight 3\/16\" steel works for cooking one pizza at a time. If you're cooking multiple pizzas back-to-back and want maximum heat retention, step up to the 3\/8\" Deluxe. For most people 1\/4\" is the right call.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOVEN, GRILL, STOVETOP, CAMPFIRE - Great for more than just pizza, use this steel for sourdough bread, smash burgers, roasted vegetables, breakfast, and flatbreads. At 16\" x 16\" it fits over two burners on most gas and electric ranges. On the grill, it works as a flat-top griddle surface with the same low-carbon steel handling direct flame without warping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMADE IN THE USA \u0026amp; BUILT TO LAST - Precision CNC laser-cut from a single piece of low-carbon steel in Minnesota. Ships shot-blasted (not pre-seasoned) - season it once before first use: wash, apply a thin coat of oil, and bake at 375°F for one hour. After that, it builds a natural non-stick patina with every use, similar to cast iron. No Teflon, no PFAS, no coatings that chip or wear off. Virtually indestructible, it won't crack from thermal shock like a ceramic stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFree shipping included. 30-day hassle-free returns.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Belmont Warehouse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43254215475409,"sku":"BW-B0BR5ZLMFP","price":133.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/3123\/5793\/files\/61-tWj7TLQL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1787105196","url":"https:\/\/belmontwarehouse.com\/products\/16-x-16-pizza-steel-1-4-steel-17-6-lbs","provider":"Belmont Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
