Megamaster Ceramic Pizza Stone 12.94" Round – Oven & Gas Grill Baking Stone for Crispy Pizza and Artisan Bread

Megamaster's 12.94" ceramic pizza stone is a heat-resistant baking surface that produces evenly baked, crispy crusts for pizza, bread, and desserts in both ovens and gas grills.

Whether you're recreating a restaurant-style pizza at home or warming artisan bread, this lightweight ceramic stone brings consistent heat and a dry cooking surface that improves crust texture and browning. The stone's natural ceramic composition stores heat and releases it steadily, reducing hot spots and helping dough bake through without burning the underside. At about 4.8 pounds, it’s easy to move between countertop, oven, and grill while still offering a stable, professional baking surface.

How does the stone improve pizza and bread baking?

The ceramic surface draws moisture from dough and provides even conduction so crusts crisp without overbaking toppings. Its thermal mass helps maintain a steady bake temperature after the oven or grill heats up, giving a predictable finish from edge to center. For home bakers, that translates to better oven spring and more consistent texture.

• Even heat distribution reduces hot spots that cause uneven browning.
• Dry surface encourages crisp crusts and a well-cooked interior.
• Stores heat to preserve temperature when opening the oven or lid.
• Sized for personal pizzas and most home oven/grill racks.

Can I use this stone on a gas grill as well as in an oven?

Yes — the Megamaster ceramic stone is designed for both indoor ovens and gas grills, giving you flexibility to bake inside or outdoors. Its thermal shock resistance and high-temperature durability accommodate direct heat from grills when used properly. Always preheat the stone gradually to avoid abrupt temperature changes.

• Suitable for gas grills when placed on a level grate.
• Works on conventional oven racks up to the stone’s diameter.
• Resists temperatures up to 1472°F when used per guidelines.
• Lightweight design simplifies handling between appliances.

How do I care for and clean the ceramic pizza stone?

Cleaning is straightforward: allow the stone to cool fully, then scrape away residues and wipe with a damp cloth. Do not use soap or harsh detergents, as ceramic can absorb flavors. For stubborn spots, a plastic scraper or brush and warm water will usually do the job without damaging the surface.

• Cool stone completely before cleaning to prevent cracking.
• Use a scraper for baked-on cheese or dough remnants.
• Wipe with a damp cloth; avoid soaps that may be absorbed.
• Store in a dry place to prevent moisture-related issues.

What are the stone’s dimensions and practical limits?

The stone measures approximately 12.94 inches in diameter with a low-profile thickness near 0.4 inches, making it compact enough for most home ovens and many grills. The modest weight of roughly 4.8 pounds keeps it portable yet heavy enough to sit flat while baking. Use within your appliance’s recommended temperature ranges and heat the stone gradually for best results.

• Diameter: about 12.94 inches — fits most home oven racks.
