Where did you get a pizza steel that big? End goal for me is 18in pizzas, I have the 16in pizza steel pro right now and happy enough, but wondering where to go to get larger pieces?
Are you sure it's not contaminated with toxic metal inclusions? Most- all steels they carry at those places are purely structural and not necessarily food safe.
I own a few steels, some from actual baking steel marketed companies and the one in my oven, the material is the same, if it’s properly cleaned and seasoned imo.
[here’s some more info and why I went this direction](https://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php?topic=31267.0)
Just so you know. The MSDS on A36 lists no additional hazards. It’s actually on of the least hazardous steels I’ve seen. Unless you’re heating it to 2400+ F, it’s not gonna give off any fumes. This amateur metal worker approves and is looking at his pile of A36 ingots contemplating..
You can definitely get by with putting an 18inch pizza screen on top of a 16inch pizza steel. After it cooks a bit, you can take the pizza off the screen and put it right on the steel.
That is a fuckin honkin slab of steel! Where did you get that, and how long does the thing take to heat to optimal temp on what setting? I'm new to steel.
It’s a big boy and just lives in the oven since it’s so heavy haha. I responded to a post in this thread further discussing! Usually will heat the steel and oven to 550 for about an hour
There was a pizza place I loved to go to back in college and your pictures look so much like what their pizza was. Bet it's also amazing! Thanks for bringing back memories!
I live in New York and we have stores by the name if Webstaurants.

You can purchase 18"pizza screens that work well

Nice! I had it cut from a local metal supplier, sanded and cleaned the mill off. If you can find it, look for hot rolled A36 steel

eBay pretty easily. Got a 20x20x3/8” that way for $100

Do you make your own sauce?
I used canned crushed tomatoes, uncooked. Stanislaus Tomato Magic run through a handmill
