Hi Terry, Weber pizza is an easy and quick meal. What i learnt the hard way early in the cooking of them is never ever wash the stone! The stone must always be as dry and as hot as possible. Just a hint... i found at times it differcult to slide a prepared pizza onto the hot stone so after some trial and error now dust the underside with cornflour which makes the transfer much easier.I dont always use a stone at all but instead have purchased and use some unglassed plates i got from the Salvo shop. $2.00 for six!
