Ok, here is the review. I’m pretty happy with it, for my needs.
Below is the product link, if anyone’s interested. I previously ordered a Cuisinart one, off Amazon. However, Jeff sent me a used one, so it went back. This new Charbroil one was announced around the same time, so I bought that instead. The Cuisinart one has more insulation inside, but it doesn’t have any convection vents in the bottom. My guess is that the Charbroil one is better.
My grill has two burners and is 18,000BTU. I would not use it with a grill that has less heat output than 9,000BTU, per burner.
Preheating takes about 20 minutes, with both burners at 100% and the lid down. That gets the pizza stone to about 650f. The air temperature sits around 450-550f, depending on how often you open the lid. 550f seems to be the absolute maximum air temperature that I could achieve. You could preheat longer, but the stone will get too hot and the base will get over cooked. Keeping the lid closed, while cooking, keeps the air temp higher.
I didn’t time how long the pizzas took to cook, but my guess is around 5-7 minutes. This is my first time ever making pizzas and I didn’t screw up too badly, so I’m calling it a success.
