Has anyone priced a 1/4" thick round of SS locally? Might be worth asking around.

Photos are robbed from Nashticle..

It was definitely a pie making learning experience! First couple were a little charred on the bottom :lol:, last 2 were better but there's still room for improvement.

A little crispy on de bottom

Interesting setup, you obviously must get a lot of heat reflection off the dome to get the top that well cooked in 3 minutes! So you have a standard ceramic stone and then a metal on top? The reason for the standard ceramic is to get more mass instead of just the steel alone?

Do you just have the vents wide open, or are you blowing in full blast with your smoker controller fan to get the heat 'way the fuck up there'?

Nice looking pie.. I do need to get my shit together and start making some on the K

There's two Primo ceramic "D-plates" on top of the grate then a Primo ceramic pizza stone on top of those, the double layer is for thermal mass. Plates and stone are both about 3/4" thick. Not wide open, no fans. For this cook the grill was running steady @ ~ 540-550 F for one hour. I've been playing around with different setups; grate / stone height, temperatures, hydration on the dough, looking for the magic. These thin crust pies are outrageously good, without all the carbs.

Dough is built @ 70% hydration which makes it difficult to handle. It's maybe 1 - 2mm thick, more or less in spots.

So, grab some fire bricks and get on it!!
