"We threw out our pizza stone and will never look back! Baking steel is the way to cook pizza!"
Amanda P. Verified Purchase
We season it so you don't have to.
The Original Baking Steel® arrives pre-seasoned and ready to bake, pizza tonight, not next week. No smoke. No DIY project. No rust risk.
Like any cast iron or carbon steel, your Baking Steel only gets better with use. Every pizza, every loaf, every steak builds a deeper, darker, more non-stick surface. A patina that's earned, not manufactured.
Trusted by over 200,000 home bakers who didn't want to wait a week to make their first pie. Made by hand in Massachusetts. The original since 2012. The one we still make ourselves.

FAQs
What makes the Original Baking Steel® different?
The Original Baking Steel® was created by the innovators behind the pizza steel revolution. It delivers unmatched heat retention and distribution, mimicking a 900°F pizza oven in your home kitchen for perfectly crispy, airy crusts every time.
Can I use the Baking Steel for more than pizza?
Absolutely! While it's legendary for pizza, the Original Baking Steel® is also perfect for breads, steaks, seafood, roasted veggies, and more. It’s the ultimate multi-purpose cooking tool.
How thick is it and how much does it weigh?
The Original Baking Steel® measures 16" x 14", is ¼" thick, and weighs 15 lbs. That heft is what gives it its incredible heat performance and durability.

Nope! It works beautifully in home ovens, on grills, over stovetops, induction burners, and even campfires. If it gets hot, your Baking Steel® belongs there.
How do I clean and care for it?
Hand wash with warm water and dry thoroughly. A Cleaning Brick works perfectly for removing any baked-on residue. Apply a light coat of oil after cleaning to maintain seasoning.
