Ceramic baking stone and pizza deflector - Ø25cm

Transform your QUATRO M kamado into a true pizza oven and a versatile cooking station with this high-performance refractory ceramic stone specially developed for high-temperature cooking, indirect cooking, smoking, and low-temperature preparations. Thanks to its exceptional ability to accumulate and then gradually release heat, it ensures an even temperature distribution throughout the kamado to achieve precise, consistent cooking results worthy of the best professional ovens.

A DOUBLE FUNCTION: PIZZA STONE AND HEAT DEFLECTOR

PIZZA STONE FOR KAMADO

Used as a baking stone, this ceramic stone allows you to cook pizzas directly on a heated surface that replicates the cooking conditions of a traditional oven. The heat is evenly distributed across the entire surface of the stone, promoting uniform cooking of the dough and resulting in a crispy base, a light crumb, and optimal flavour development. It is ideal for preparing Neapolitan pizzas, artisanal pizzas, homemade bread, baguettes, focaccias, fougasses, tarts flambées, pastries, and baked goods that require perfectly controlled cooking.

DEFLECTOR FOR INDIRECT COOKING

Placed between the coals and the food, the stone acts as a thermal deflector by creating a barrier that blocks direct heat. This configuration transforms your QUATRO M kamado into a true convection oven and allows for particularly consistent indirect cooking while limiting the risk of burning food exposed to the direct radiation of the coals. This use is particularly recommended for long cooking, roasts, whole poultry, fish, vegetables, as well as all American barbecue-style preparations.

INCLUDED IN THE SPLIT & MIX MEDIUM SYSTEM

This pizza stone and deflector is supplied as standard with the Split & Mix Medium system of the kamado QUATRO M. This multi-level cooking system has been designed to maximise the versatility of the barbecue by allowing different cooking techniques to be combined simultaneously within the same appliance. Thanks to this modularity, it becomes possible to combine direct cooking, indirect cooking, low-temperature cooking, and multi-level cooking in order to prepare several recipes at the same time while maintaining optimal temperature control.

EXCELLENT THERMAL INERTIA FOR PROFESSIONAL RESULTS

The refractory ceramic used in the manufacture of this stone has a very high thermal inertia, allowing it to store a large amount of heat and then release it gradually and evenly throughout the cooking process. This technical characteristic provides several major advantages, including better temperature stability, a reduction in thermal variations inside the kamado, more even cooking of food, and a significant improvement in the crispiness of pizza dough and artisan breads.

IDEAL FOR SMOKING AND LOW & SLOW COOKING

American barbecue enthusiasts will particularly appreciate this stone when used as a deflector during "Low & Slow" cooking. By keeping food away from direct heat, it helps maintain stable temperatures for several hours and promotes even smoking throughout the cooking process. This configuration is perfectly suited for preparing pulled pork, brisket, ribs, pork shoulders, whole poultry, and all recipes requiring slow cooking to preserve the tenderness, juices, and natural flavours of the food.

BLACK ENAMEL FOR BETTER DURABILITY

The surface of this stone benefits from a high-resistance black enamel that enhances its durability and simplifies its maintenance after each use. This finish effectively protects the cooking surface, facilitates the removal of food residues, and sustainably maintains its aesthetic appearance despite repeated high-temperature uses. Its robust design allows it to withstand the high heat generated in a kamado while ensuring consistent performance over the years.

USAGE PRECAUTIONS

Like any refractory ceramic, this stone must be used with certain precautions to avoid thermal shocks that may cause cracks. It is recommended to install the stone in the kamado before lighting it so that it gradually heats up with the appliance. It is also advisable to avoid placing a cold stone in a hot barbecue, never pour cold water on a hot stone, and allow the ceramic to cool naturally before any handling or cleaning. Adhering to these recommendations significantly extends the lifespan of the stone while preserving all of its thermal qualities.
