A pizza peel is used to slide prepared raw pizza, or a round of bread dough, onto a hot pizza stone in the oven. To prevent the dough from sticking, you first put flour or cornmeal on the peel, then place the dough on it. Supposedly, then, you place the tip of the pizza peel where you want the far end of the pizza to land, then do a skillful little maneuver in which you shove the peel away from you to get the pizza sliding away from you then smoothly pull the peel back toward you, leaving the gorgeous pizza on the stone.
As anyone who has tried it knows, it's not as easy as it sounds. The first few times you do it the pizza sticks to the peel before finally tumbling onto the stone, resulting in a surrealistic looking shape and possibly pizza topping everywhere and a cook's bruised ego.
I have learned to do this with a wooden peel
Great peel at a bargain price. I don't think I could have chosen better. Now, we heat our pizza stone in the hot oven, while building the pizza right on the peel. If you use enough flour on the peel while forming the dough, it slides right off onto the hot stone, which makes for delicious pizza! We then lift the finished pizza off the stone with the peel, transfer to a metal pizza pan to cool, and slide a pizza from the peel onto the still hot stone. Nothing could be easier!!!
This pizza peel is pretty great. Both myself (tall guy) and my girlfriend (short girl) can use it with ease to get homemade pizzas in and out of the oven. The handle is sturdy, long, and easy to grip. The peel is large enough to fit a two person pizza with no problem.
I would definitely recommend using a pizza stone and cornmeal in combination with this. The pizza stone cooks the pizza much better, and the cornmeal makes sliding the pizza on and off the peel many times easier.
I ordered this because I've always had the wooden ones and they crack because I like things sanitized in the dishwasher. Decided to go stainless. It just fits in the dishwasher. It also just fits in the drawer under my wall oven which is large. Works great tho. Will fit most store pizzas. I also burn myself so much this has a nice safe handle that I'm comfortable using.
This pizza peel was a real disappointment. Most of the reviews mentioned how the pizza dough wouldn't stick to the peel. Well, mine stuck like crazy. I even tried using cornmeal and flour beneath the dough - still no luck. I couldn't get the dough off of the peel and on to the oven stone. I'll stick with my wooden peel. It may be thick, but the dough doesn't stick (as long as I use some cornmeal or flour).

This pizza peel will keep pizzas flying into the oven without making a mess or risking a burn. Peels is made of aluminum material and handle is made of wood. This aluminum pizza peel works best for placing pizzas into the oven because the surface is slick enough to prevent the dough from sticking to the peel and the rectangular shape prevents an uncooked pizza from sagging over the edge. Blade measures 12-inch width by 14-inch length and handle 12-inch length.
With summer well underway, we are making grilled pizza once a week. This aluminum pizza peel makes flipper our masterpieces super easy. Highly recommended
This peel is wide with a handle that is sturdy, and the handle itself is 12 inches long. The peel is smooth aluminum and can handle most size pizzas. Be sure to sprinkle cornmeal (coarse grind is nice) on the peel to keep the bread or pizza from sticking. A bit awkward to store, but placing it sideways in a cupboard with other baking pans works for me. I have used it for both artisan bread loaves and pizzas.
I didn't think this simple item would be life-changing, but it was.
Pros:
- Order pizza delivery
- Burn myself when inserting or removing a pizza from the oven.
- You feel like a ninja warrior when waving it around.
The only downside is storing it. I typically stick it on top of the refrigerator as it won't fit in any of my cabinets.
Bought this for my Ooni Karu pizza oven.
Works perfect at 12" wide..better value than the Ooni options. Less than half their price.
Not worth $5. Very cheap quality from wood handle to aluminum. The next day i received the pizza peel i went to a restaurant store equipement and got a professional pizza peel for $16 before tax.
