Meet the Chef Pomodoro 16-inch pizza steel, a sturdy baking surface designed to elevate home oven results. This 1/4 inch thick steel offers a generous 16-inch diameter, giving you room for large pizzas, thick-cut toppings, and generous portions perfect for family meals or entertaining guests. Steel conducts heat efficiently, promoting a crisp, blistered crust while keeping toppings evenly heated. Built to withstand repeated high-heat use, it’s a durable alternative to ceramic stones and won’t crack under pressure.
