PSA for Pizza Bakers - Hearthkit Oven Inserts are Available!

I bought one of these at least 10 years ago for baking pizza. It gives results close to a commercial pizza oven in your home oven. The company went out of business shortly after I got mine and these have been hard to find. Apparently, this seller got a hold of some old inventory that was unsold.
Here's the eBay link: Hearkit Oven Insert on eBay
Here's a video: YouTube
I am not involved in this seller in any way - I'm just an enthusiastic owner.

Interesting, I wonder how it works with the self cleaning mode trick. I probably would still prefer a steel for 550.

My oven gets to 550. If you charge the stone for 45 min - an hour, it gives a beautiful crust. I put it all the way at the top of the oven so the oven ceiling acts as the 4th side.

Understand that, steel just holds heat better for the lower temp. I always go steel over stone if using 550, still use the 45 minute to an hour wait before putting pizzas in. I have a 16x16x1/4 plate for pizzas.
Your oven does get much higher when in self-cleaning. It's an old pizza maker trick to defeat the self-cleaning lock and use the self-cleaning mode to achieve much higher temps. Do at your own risk though,
. Always use a stone if you try this route. Steel will absolutely destroy a pizza at high heat. This post was edited on 4/29/26 at 12:19 pm

Just get a pizza steel and be done with it.

Why would you recommend this stupid arse thing when one can just get a pizza steel?
