Biscuits, pizza, cinnamon rolls, casserolls, etc. Yes it is size limited but I would hate to be without it. I like it in the cooler weather. The key for me is making sure you let it preheat just like your oven at home. The pizza stones or tiles make a big difference.

making your own mozzarella is super easy. You can order supplies from
New England cheesemaking @ www.cheesemaking.com
We've made it a bunch of times while camping. nothing better than bruschetta made with home grown tomatoes & basil and freshly made mozzarella. Um um good!!

Couldn't you just use a 12x12 ceramic tile from Home Depot? I would think this would offer better coverage than a round pizza stone. Has anyone out there tried this or should I just follow the flock?

Yes I would think that would work fine. You just want some space around the edge. The round pizza stones allow for space in the corners.

I did that in my last trailer. It worked okay but the pizza stone I have now fits better and won't bounce around. My ceramic tile did and broke into pieces.

Don't want to sound stupid, but are we talking on the bottom of the oven below the flame or on the shelf above the flame?

Ours is not on the bottom of the oven but the next shelf up. We have 2 shelfs and the pizza disc is on the bottom shelf. Works great

On the metal shelf above the flame. Not on the wire rack.

We have two wire shelfs and ours pizza disc is on the bottom wire shelf. If you only have one wire shelf I would just put it on the metal bottom in the oven as you will need your wire shelf for baking. We only bake on one shelf anyway.

I love my half time oven but it heats very unevenly. I'm going to try the pizza stone. My question, do I leave the little 'shelf' in the oven and put the pizza stone on top of that or put it directly on the glass microwave part? My stove is a combination microwave/half-time/convection oven in one.

I get supplies from The Cheese Maker
You can make mozzarella in less than an hour.
When your dough is rising.

Just purchased this 15" Hamilton Beach Pizza stone at Kitchen Collection for $11.99. It fits perfectly in my Surburban oven. Didn't need the little rack that came with it but the price was right. Really makes a difference. Now the bottom of my biscuits don't burn.

So, do you cook directly on top of this or do you have another shelf above this ceramic disk?

Hoo Dad,
We never cook directly on ours. The pizza stone or disc is used to more evenly distribute the heat.

You might want to be careful allowing food to contact glazed surfaces directly, unless the glazes are certified "food safe". My daughter, who is a potter, tells me that many glazes are loaded with nasty heavy metals. She uses a respirator and gloves when making up her glazes.

Do you have a removable rack in your oven? I didn't notice one in your pic. Or do you place pans directly on the disc?

Given the fact that many people make mistakes
or fail to RTFM, any maker of food products
who fails to use a "food safe" glaze would be
courting contact with the LawSuits Unlimited
sharks!
And, of course, government overregulators
would be in a tizzy to make new regulations.
I wonder if any of the pizza stones actually
say that they use non "food safe" glazes?
Certainly be a reason to avoid them................
cheers,
johnd
