Hello! Has anyone made pizza on this? Seems like it would work like a pizza oven. How about corn on the cob? Thanks!

I am happy with it, but I live alone and cook usually for 1, and when I tried at times to cook more, I had a hard time getting things done, took quite awhile, which involved having to add wood to keep it going.

I have not tried pizza, however I dont think it would be a good idea because mine heats very uneven. I get most of heat in the center, and very little on outer edges.

I have only used it to roast meat & vegetables & as microwave. I have a ceramic tart pan & clay pizza dishes that work very well on convection, micro, & roast. Have only made 1 scratch pizza - not yet mastered. Love the machine; would buy it again.

Yes to the fries and pizza. Have not tried the crescent rolls though. Did bake popovers in the oven - they came out well. Key is to pre-heat the oven for a few minutes. Use care to not breathe in the smoke that comes off the hot Teflon surfaces. This little oven is great. Makes perfect fried eggs! You never have to turn them and risk broken yokes. I like this oven so much, I bought a 2nd one to put away in case my current oven stops working. Have also sent this oven to friends for birthday presents. Good luck with yours. Do not ever try to make oatmeal in it - what a mess! Have fun! Yes to the fries and pizza. Have not tried the crescent rolls though. Did bake popovers in the oven - they came out well.

I would put the rack in the middle of the oven for pizza. Maybe thaw the pizza a bit first though. I use this rack position when making homemade pizza and it works fine. Haven't actually tried it for frozen ones though. Hope this helps.

Dan,can't say I ever did a grilled cheese.I have ;however did a pizza and that turned out fine. Steaming vegetables never attempted. The oven is a nice touch to have in the kitchen.

No I throw mine I'm the microwave for 30 seconds and a few minutes on dual. Set pizza kind of in center, I would highly recommend this pizza oven. I have given it as gifts it is loved. And does much more than pizza.

If you want a crispy crust I always bake the pizza right on the oven rack and just use the pan to retrieve it from the oven. Hope this helps! I love...love the pan though.

I just spread some cornmeal out on the stone, put it in the oven for about half an hour to heat up, and then pull it out just long enough to set the pizza right onto it and throw it back into the oven. I've really enjoyed how the crusts on my pizzas have turned out when I do it that way.But I use the stone for all kinds of stuff...cookies, loaves of bread, etc. It's really diverse.

Absolutely! We have cooked broccoli, zucchini, squash, corn on the cob...just cook it in shorter intervals (and test it to see if it's done enough for you) and it's amazing! The moisture just stays with the veggies!

Haven't made a pizza from scratch on it, but have baked items at 500 degrees without any problem. Hope that helps. I've had mine for awhile now and use it all the time...still looks like new.

I put some olive oil on it and heat it up in the oven 400 for 15 min. Pre heat stone before putting pizza on it Sprinkle corn meal down first before laying pizza on stone. If your buying ready made dough for TraderJoe's in the baggy, roll the dough ball in flour first then shape it in a circle. Cook your pizza hot (400) and fast .

I have never heard of baking cookies on a ceramic plate before. Not only is it good for pizza but u can make pizza rolls, garlic bread,pizza bread and maybe corn bread too. I wouldn't try cookies because they must be baked on a proper cookie sheet.

I haven't done that, but it may work if you prepare your crust on parchment and slide the whole thing on your pizzeria. I make my crusts on parchment and they cook perfectly and are easy to put on and take off. Heating on 3 and cooking on 1 has also worked best for me. Let us know how it works for you.

Cast iron is great for pizza. We use it on our grill, preheated to 650 degrees. Works great. Makes a crispy crust. Oil the pan with paper towel and dust with cornmeal or semolina flour before placing dough in pan.

cooks, toasts, broils, etc. very evenly. I suggest a crisper pan or mesh for pizza. It gets very hot, I burned a couple of things at first, pay especial attention to direction to turn on/off button past 10 before setting desired time.

I own a Restaurant specializing in pizza. I purchased the PZ60 to take camping for my grandkids. It took about 20. - 25 min to cook a pizza. Maybe if the double burner stand i purchased was easier to maintain the temperature it would not have taken that long. I was also using fresh dough and toppings. Don't know how well frozen would cook. But I am satisfied with this for recreational. Would not try to use it to sell at a fair or concession stand as it takes too long if you have a large hungry crowd waiting
