re: Anyone Have Baking Steel for Pizza?

I dont think it would. For a few reasons
1) Its shape. It is square and wouldn't fit on my BGE or a Weber or most charcoal grills which are rectangular.
2) It would require a lot of fuel to get the pit up to 550 degrees and leave it there for thirty minutes to heat steel.
3) There is no broiler in your charcoal grill.
The reason the steel works is because you heat it up, then use the broiler to heat the steel further and to cook the pizza. Skipping one of those steps would render the tool useless.

Mine is rectangular, but I agree that I don't think it's meant for a grill.

Makes sense. I really love the flavor a wood/charcoal fire gives a pizza though.
I think issue 1 could be pretty easily overcome by making your own steel. Issue 2 as well-- IF you had a grill that could accommodate that much charcoal. I'm stumped on issue 3 though. Maybe we need to come up with a grill that has a built in broiler.
