TARGUS TunaBone Pizza Stone 36cm for 22-inch Kamado Grills

The TARGUS TunaBone pizza stone, featuring a 36cm diameter, is a specialized ceramic accessory engineered for 22-inch Kamado grills. By acting as a heat deflector and thermal mass, this stone creates an ideal baking environment that mimics a traditional stone oven, ensuring consistent heat distribution across the entire cooking surface. This allows for the preparation of authentic pizzas with crispy crusts, as well as perfectly baked bread and delicate pastries, directly within your outdoor grill setup.

Advantages

This pizza stone offers significant benefits for outdoor cooking by transforming your Kamado grill into a versatile baking station. The high-quality ceramic material absorbs excess moisture from the dough, which is essential for achieving a professional-grade crust texture. Furthermore, the stone provides stable thermal regulation, preventing direct flame contact and protecting your food from burning, which results in even browning and consistent cooking results every time you use it.

Suitable for

• Baking homemade pizzas with crispy crusts
• Preparing artisan breads and flatbreads
• Baking pastries and desserts on the grill
• Indirect cooking and heat diffusion

When it may not be suitable

This accessory is specifically sized for 22-inch Kamado grills and may not fit smaller or differently shaped barbecue units. It is not intended for use with direct high-heat searing or for cooking foods that release large amounts of grease, as the porous ceramic surface can absorb oils and become stained over time.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 36 cm
• Material: Heat-resistant ceramic
• Compatibility: 22-inch Kamado grills
• Function: Heat distribution and moisture absorption

How to use

Place the TARGUS TunaBone pizza stone on the grill grate or heat deflector rack before lighting the grill. Allow the stone to preheat gradually along with the grill to prevent thermal shock, which could cause the ceramic to crack. Once the desired temperature is reached, place your pizza or dough directly onto the stone using a pizza peel. Monitor the cooking process closely, as the stone retains heat efficiently and may cook food faster than a standard oven.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the internal diameter of your grill grate to ensure the 36cm stone fits comfortably
• Ensure you have a pizza peel for safe placement and removal of food
• Consider the clearance between the stone and the grill lid for taller baked goods

Usage recommendations

Always allow the stone to cool completely before attempting to clean it. Use a dry brush or a plastic scraper to remove food residue; avoid using soap or excessive water, as the porous material will absorb these substances and potentially affect the flavor of future meals.
