Why Use A Pizza Steel? A pizza steel, also known as a baking steel, is a better heat conductor than a pizza stone. The pizza steel is popular for cooking bread and pizza because it is able to transfer heat at a high rate while simultaneously stabilizing at a steady temperature.  This means when you place a pizza on the steel, the dough is cooked by the transfer of heat stored in the steel - rather than just the hot air in the oven.
