I don't know where my d-i-l got the rectangular stone she gave me but it's
been fired up to 500 degrees with no problem. The two round ones, which
have also been fired up to 500 degrees, are both cheapy K-Mart stones but
they sure do make a marvelous round loaf using Rob's recipe, Russian potato bread and foccacia. Well, and of course, yummy pizza using either Noni's (Tuscany) or DH's (his grandmother from Naples) recipe.

I have baked on pizza stones for almost as long as I can remember
making the glorious pies. Yes, bread, too. As I raised the bake
temperature over the years the ones from Sassafras cracked apart. The
one here in the Phoenix oven is rectangular and was fired at a much
higher temperature so I can bake pizzas at five hundred degrees with
impunity.

Impunity is one of my favorite seasonings.
