Great Safe Choice
After eating some muffins which were covered in non-stick coating from the pan I baked them in, I vowed never to use non-stick cookware again. We had a hard time finding a non-non-stick/uncoated pizza pan, but finally discovered this one through Amazon. It works great - we make our own pizzas from scratch at home and it works with thin and thick crust alike. We have had it for about a year and my husband is not exactly delicate with our pans, and it has held up well. One reviewer remarked on the thickness, and it isn't thick, but I don't think you would want a thick one, seeing as many pizza recipes call for the pizza to be set directly on the rack in order to crisp the dough nicely. I assumed that's the point of the holes in this pan... We don't use Pam or any non-stick spray, and we haven't had any problems with sticking. A great product!
An easy-to-use alternative to a traditional pizza stone
The Chicago Metallic Pizza Crisper is a commercial-grade sheet metal pan that's perforated with 1/4" holes across its surface. The holes provide air circulation that helps cook a pizza crust evenly from center to edge. Without this ventilation - if you use a standard cookie sheet, for example - your pizza crust will cook crisp on the edge but remain underdone in the center.
A more common way to evenly bake a pizza crust is with a porous baking stone, such as 1 2 or 3. These will produce excellent results, but are more difficult to manage in the kitchen than a crisper pan. In particular, after building your pizza it can be tricky to transfer it to a preheated stone. Removing the pizza after it's cooked can also be difficult. The best answer for working with...
Pizza Pan
We have gotten rid of nonstick cookware the past few years, and this pan is a rare find when almost everything has that awful coating. It works well, and all I've done is use cooking spray. No sticking problems, and no chemicals either. I would highly recommend this.
