Pizza Stone Ratings Vary With Price


Would you believe the Wall Street Journal, of all the unlikely places, just reviewed and rated pizza stones? Well, it's just in time for super Bowl Sunday of course. I pointed out in an earlier blog about making pizza using Trader Joe's ingredients that pizza stones are critical to achieving a crisp crust. The article has a really cool online feature that allows you to see a photo show of all the stones and stone sets reviewed. The bottom line is that they rated the All-Clad Pizza Stone & Cutter best overall. Unfortunately it costs $99.95 and is temporarily sold out at Amazon.com, but the two consumer reviews the set received were great and the cutter is supposed to be one of the best. Better news is that Linens ' Things Kitchen 101 Pizza Set rated best value and only costs $19.99 on sale and is well under $20 if you use one of their 20% off coupons. You may want to spring for another cutter since this one isn't supposed to be so sharp. I have a Dexter Russell P177A stainless pizza cutter I got at a restaurant supply store over a decade ago that's still going strong. You can get one for $14.95 at akitchen.com. My pizza stone, which is well seasoned from many years of use, is made by Huey-Chang and a recent search showed that they are the manufacturer for Pampered Chef bakeware.
