KettlePizza Gas Pro Startup: Use of the KettlePizza Gas Pro requires a gas grill with a grilling surface of at least 17 inches deep X 24 inches wide.

KettlePizza Pizza Cooking Instructions: Important Note: Be sure to use only KettlePizza brand stones as nonKettlePizza stones may crack with the high temperatures achieved. 1. Test stone temperature by putting a couple droplets of water onto the stone. If the water “dances” then the stone is at temperature. An infrared thermometer is also handy for measuring stone temperature. The goal is for the stone temperature to be 100-200 degrees F.
Spinners are available separately to help facilitate spinning and popping bubbles in the dough. 6. After five to eight minutes, your pizza should be near completion. Check the top and bottom to ensure that all sections are properly cooked. TIP: If the top of your pizza needs extra heat you can lower or turn off the burner(s) directly under the stone. You can also place a metal peel or pan under the pizza. This will give you one to two minutes of extra cooking time without over cooking the pizza bottom.
Using Wood With Your KettlePizza Gas Pro: Getting that wood-fired flavor is easy with your KettlePizza gas Pro. Using a smoker box (sold separately) take a wood chunk no bigger than fist size or wood chips and place in the smoker box. Slide the box and wood inside the Gas Pro using cooking tongs, peel or a spatula. Try to get the box placed in a rear corner of the unit. The wood smoke and may eventually flame up.

KettlePizza Gas Pro Cleaning Instructions: 1. Find a stainless steel cleaning solution and apply some to the outside of your unit using a small towel or rag. 2. Scrub the polish onto your KettlePizza with a Scotch Brite™ pad – the coloring should be noticeably cleaner almost immediately. 3. For older or more frequently used units the cleaning could take more than one coat of polish. 4. Once the unit has reverted back to its original silver appearance, rinse the outside lightly with water.
KettlePizza Metal and Wooden Peel Use and Care: Aluminum peels are best for removing a cooked pizza from a stone, however, many people use them for placing the uncooked pizza onto the stone as well. The handle is designed so that it can be bent to an angle that is comfortable for your use. Place the large part of the peel on a table and gently lift the handle to the angle that you like.
KettlePizza Cordierite Stone Care: KettlePizza stones are made of the highest quality materials and American workmanship. They are hand made and may have slight imperfections that will not effect cooking performance. To clean, first allow stone to cool completely. Scrape off excess food with a spatula (paint scrapers work great for this as well). Run stone under hot water while scrubbing with a brush. Do not use soap on the stone as it may leave a soapy aftertaste.
