Artisan Steel - High Performance 16x14.25in Pizza Steel Made in USA

Overview

Artisan Steel delivers a 16" x 14.25" pizza surface that weighs about 16 lbs and is 0.25" thick. Built in the USA, this ultra-conductive steel transfers heat swiftly from oven or grill to your dough, helping you achieve a blistered, restaurant-style crust in minutes. Its direct heat contact pairs with a surface engineered to support quick, even bake times, while the patina you’ll see develop over time signals years of flavorful experiments in the kitchen.

Why home cooks choose Artisan Steel

Beyond a traditional stone, this steel is designed to feel responsive under the dough: heat moves efficiently, crusts blister beautifully, and excess moisture can release more freely through the surface, contributing to a crisp edge and tender center. The heavy, durable build resists cracking under high heat, making it a dependable choice for busy weeknight pizzas or weekend bake-aheads.

• Ultra-conductive surface for fast heat transfer and blistered crusts.
• Low-friction, easy-slide surface; more conductive than ceramic or stone options.
• Solid steel that won’t break under high temperatures; built for longevity.
• Simple care routine: rinse with water and a stiff brush, dry completely, and re-season as needed.
• 16" x 14.25" x 0.25"; about 16 lbs; Made in the USA.

Versatile kitchen companion

Its versatility shines in more than pizza. You can freeze the surface for cold serving, use it to chill and plate desserts, or employ moderate heat for rustic breads. On a barbecue, it can add a wood-fired-like finish to vegetables or other roasted items.

• Pizza in under 10 minutes with a blistered crust from a home oven or grill.
• Cold serving surface when cooled or frozen, ideal for appetizers or desserts.
• Bread and vegetables roasted with a crisp, caramelized edge at moderate heat.
• Barbecue-friendly for a dynamic, wood-fired flavor at home.

Care, durability, and patina

Out of the box, you’ll find slight variations from the hand-finished surface, protected by food-safe oil. With regular use, the surface darkens into a rich patina that speaks to its cooking history. Cleaning is straightforward: wash with water, brush away residue, dry immediately, and re-season with a light coat of oil as needed. A dedicated maintenance routine helps preserve performance and flavor across countless meals.

Packaging includes parchment sheets on both sides for protection and clear, step-by-step care instructions. Thorough washing before first use is recommended, and re-seasoning can be performed by a simple bake at 375°F for one hour as part of routine upkeep.
