Baking Steel Modernist Cuisine Special Edition

Shawn S.

After multiple difficult nights with a pizza stone, I ran across a reference to a pizza steel in a pizza book I was reading. On my first night out, my first attempt on the baking steel was beautiful (at least to me). It cant fix my mistakes, but it sure is far more forgiving when I have to go back in to fix a problem.

The Baking Steel is absolutely amazing. Once I learn, I can confidently produce pizzas far better than restaurants! But I have much to learn. The crusts are perfect! Thank you!

First pizza using the Baking Steel: Caramelized onions, prosciutto, fontana, and cherry tomatoes with fresh basil. Turned out professional. Yum!! I followed oven instructions precisely using the final broiler blast and the Puffy Pizza crust was perfect. I think I can finally cross "making a perfect pizza" off my bucket list. Don't waste your money on pricy pizza stones or an expensive pizza oven (which I was about to do)...the Baking Steel will make you a pizza queen. P.S. FYI....the Baking St...

Amazing how well this works! I’ve always struggled to make a decent, homemade pizza, Found baking steel , kind of by accident, and it was the secret I’ve been looking for.

I absolutely love good pizzeria pizza and have always made my own, but have never owned a pizza steel or peel. So when I saw this on a cooking show I thought…”I really want to become a pizza PRO and this looks like the way.” Bought the pizza steel, bought a pizza peel, and found an amazing pizza dough recipe that makes a great New York style pizza. Followed the recipe to a T, made the homemade sauce, preheated my pizza steel to 550 degrees for about an hour, put my pizza together and…..WHAM!!!...

First use of the steel was, not optimal. Second time…..perfect. I followed the recipe for the dough and the sauce. Excellent. Great addition to my kitchen, and I look forward to making pizza!!

I absolutely love my baking steel - it has changed my pizza making. I love it so much that I bought one for my best friend because this is a secret you just have to share! I love the cookbook and the videos- they are so helpful in making the perfect pizza! I’m definitely on the bandwagon- telling everyone I know about Baking Steel!!! P.S. I’ve had mine for over a year.

My wife says I am a pizza making pro now. I use to use my cast iron skillets when making homemade pizzas and the results were ok,but enter my baking steel and my game has been leveled up. With the help of Andris’ videos my dough is on point and with the baking steel so is the crust. Having only used it once I have since been filled with a desire to explore all the other creations I want to make,pizza is just part of it next on my list are artisan breads and also homemade bagels. My only regret w...

All I can say is, I wish I would have bought one sooner. I used a pizza stone for a couple of years and got pretty good at making tasty pizzas. The Baking steel just upped my pizza making game. Really makes a nice crispy bottom crust.

It's a big heavy block of steel...and it rocks! I'm 4 pizzas in and this last set of 3 I was able to cook pizzas in about 6 min each and got some nice leoparding and delicious pizzas. I learned about this from a friend and also read Elements of Pizza, I'd recommend that read as a companion to the steel. Happy customer here.

I had been using a regular clay baking stone for probably three years and I was continually disappointed with the end results of my pizzas. The crust never came out crispy or darkened no matter how long I preheated the stone or how close I put it to the oven. A few months back I purchased a portable pizza oven but found that it was a very difficult and confining process when cooking pizzas. After watching some videos on YT about how to make NY style pizzas at home I stumbled across one that high...

What a game changer in cooking pizza at home specially in the oven! Seriously it’s takes minutes to have a crispy pie! Specially when u don’t have to take it outside and drag it through the house! Absolutely love how it’s cooks slides on and off the peel like no other amazing product!!

The Baking Steel really is all that it is hyped up to be! I have used every week since getting it for Smash burgers on the Green Egg and Pizza on the Green Egg. No fun eating out anymore. Food is better at home!

We made our first pizza last week, your dough recipe. OMG....soooo good! This steel is an answer to my prayers. I've been using a stone for years, but never got the result I was searching for. With the steel, pizza perfection. This will make a perfect Christmas gift to my family members. Thank you for a great invention.

We bought one a few years ago when it was introduced, and have used it almost every weekend since to make perfect pizza. We also use it frequently to make pita bread. The one we just bought was a gift, and they love it too. The photo is her first pizza baked on her new Baking Steel.

The original baking steel is as advertised and more. This unit is unbelievable, it makes me look good when baking pizza. America’s Test Kitchen also mentioned it as the best there is. I agree!

Was very curious when I heard about the baking steel so I purchased the 20x15x1/4 original baking steel. It’s comes seasoned as stated and placed mine on bottom rack as I do my seasoned stones being a propane gas stove and find the the heat greater lower . I look forward to using it on my gas grill as well and will continue to try various methods to cook up pizzas with 👨‍🍳🍕

This pizza steel has changed the way we spend our time together as a family! We love it! Making the dough, prepping the day for a family pizza night has been more fun than any of us ever imagined. The Baking Steel Pro cooks a pizza perfectly! I wish I would have bought one earlier. I also want to thank the Baking Steel team for all of the great recipes and videos. Keep the info coming! I will be looking forward to buying a second Baking Steel very soon. Pizza night has become VERY crowded at o...

Really happy with the purchase. Shipping was fast and I was cooking pizza in no time at all. Best pizza I've ever made at home and I've made a lot of pizzas in my life. If you want perfect homemade pizza, get yourself a BakingSteel Original (or any of the available options from BakingSteel).

Love, love, love The Baking Steel! My only regret is not having bought it sooner. I plan on using it at LEAST once a week during the cooler months (fall/winter/spring) as it gets HOT AND warms up the house. For the hot months (summer), I’ll be using my Uuni 3 outside. Buy it and you won’t regret it.

The pan was a great price, and arrived really fast. It was a snap to season and my first use was on seared scallops, where it did great, really held the heat and no sticking. Highly recommend this product. I posted a video of this pan in action with the scallops on my Instagram page, @leftoverranchaz.

Ordered the large Baking Steel plate and the results are utterly fantastic! Kept the steel at 450 degrees and for the last few minutes put on the broiler and the results were spectacular. The chew on the crust was equal to Frank Pepe's Apizza Neoplitano in New Haven, Connecticut! 5 Stars. The Baking Steel plate is a true Game Changer for home Pizza makers like myself. Thanks so Much Baking Steel!

Warning - I am Gluten Free. That annoys some people, me most of all I promise you. What's most annoying? No decent PIZZA! Well after many years of suffering a friend turned me onto No Gluten No Problem and that book made it absolutely clear that the is no decent home made pizza without a baking steel. So off to the internet and research. Made in USA of course. At least 14 inches, check. 1/4 inches thick. Check. Then I wait. It's a little expensive. Thinking. More waiting ( a week or ...

The reason I purchased the original steel is because it is made in the USA. There are cheaper steels but my experience with lower quality offshore products made me to stay home for my purchase. I purchased my steel after watching your videos.My wife is on a gluten free diet, your recipe for the gluten free pizza puts the commercially available pizza’s to shame. The steel makes the gluten free crust cook just right and doesn’t have the soggy texture you receive from pizza shop gluten-free pies. M...

Started making pizza on my very nice thick pizza stone during the pandemic. First used frozen dough, then decided to try making my own. Found your website and tried the 72 hour dough. It was really good, but....at that point I knew I needed to try a steel. Best pizza yet! The steel rocks! Bakes the pizza quicker and more evenly. No more soggy crusts. Love it.

The baking steel has upped my bread game significantly as well as reduced my cleaning on baking day, no need for bread pans anymore for several types of bread. You cannot match the color and texture I’m getting on my breads now with any other tool! The baking steel is a must have and fits perfectly in the Anova Steam Oven!

I was treated with excellent customer service! I was hoping to receive my baking steel by Thanksgiving and they had sent one already but to make sure I received it , they sent another with two day shipping . I did receive it by Thanksgiving and sent one back. And I have used it several times now baking bread and I love it.

I use the baking steel to regulate the temp in the oven, and it does a phenomenal job when it comes to baking stuff. 10/10 would buy again and would recommend to a friend in a heartbeat

My husband and I purchased the Baking Steel and love it! We have a wood fired oven in the yard which we LOVE but can’t use during our Canadian winters, so now we are really looking forward to having amazing ‘Pizza Friday’s’ with the family all year round! The crust baked exactly like the outdoor oven but in the house!!( I am looking forward to trying my sourdough bread on the steel as well.) The stone is very heavy so we actually leave it in the oven most of the time for convenience. We would...

Used it twice and I can’t imagine ever making pizza without it again. The crust is as good as a wood fired oven! Don’t hesitate, this steel is the real deal.

Truly transformed my pizza-making game and my inadequate gas oven to achieve the flop-less undercarriage that eluded me with traditional pizza stones. Amazing product and and now a true believer!

First off, I heard about the Baking Steel from a customer, he just raved about it. After much consternation about which one I should purchase (I literally made life-size measured cutouts of every single Steel and Griddle to figure out which one would work best in my grilling/baking environments - it was very helpful, and I highly recommend doing so!) ;-D The Baking Steel Griddle was the winner, and while the first one arrived slightly damaged, Craig sent out another one lickety split and then...

I have an Ooni pizza oven. I love making pizza but I have to admit that I’ve had better success in my electric convection oven than with my Ooni. Now that I have “the baking steel”this is a game changer! Love it!! Highly recommend. Perfect pizza every time.

Cooking ground ribeye for really great burgers. Used the Bullseye from RecTeq as the grill and the Baking Steel was perfect, keeping all 4 cooked exactly the same. I purchased for a pizza oven but I can’t wait to try pizza in the grill. Bacon is also a treat cooked on the Baking Steel

I have had my baking steel plus for about 2 weeks. I have made 8 pizzas and after about the 2nd or 3rd try I couldn’t believe how good the pizza was. The crust was as good or better than anything I can buy locally. I am an ok baker but this really elevates my pizza to a point where I don’t ever need to order pizza again. Now I just need to improve my own skills, timing and process and I should be able to make a really great pizza at home.

I had a baking stone for many years and thought it was great, but then I found this Baking Steel and what a difference. I bought the flaxseed oil that you recommed and seasoned the stone per your instructions (wife said it smelled but I didn't think it was that bad). We have used it a couple times and there is no smell of the flaxseed oil while baking. The Baking Steel makes my pizza crust come out nice and crispy. I also tried turning on the broiler on for a couple of minutes, what a game chan...

Steak and feta pizza. Love the crispy crust. We have been baking pizza with stone for many years but could never truly achieve that perfect crispy, chewy crust until now. The steel has been a game changer.

Attached you will see my creation using my steel. I am a pizza lover. I was tired of traveling 20-minutes out of my way to pickup my favorite pizza. So I decided with extreme prejudice to try hand at making it myself. I started out using a pizza stone with extreme disappointing results until it cracked down the middle. When I learn about the benefits and wonders using steel I began researching. The Baking Steel was the only one backing the steel product. The website resources are my lifeli...

This baking steel is fabulous! My baguettes turned out better than I expected, being a novice at baking bread. Just made my first pizza following Andris and his YouTube videos, and while it wasn’t the prettiest thing, it sure was tasty. Next pizza will be better looking and I’ll forward a pic then~

Cherry Wood 14" Pizza Peel

Sharon N.

Love it! I bought it with the companion Dry Kit which was enough yeast, salt and organic flour measured out to created 4 12" pizzas. I LOVE that it's wide and flat, so it's easier to portion out with a bench scraper directly from the container. I was also impressed with the Dry Kit, delicious dough with great spring! Used half for pizzas and the other for a calzone!
