Ok I think I just figured out a something that I should have realized long ago. I got home early from work today and my wife and I were going to get caught up on yardwork so we decided on "Take and Bake" Pizza on the egg.
I filled the egg and then lit it.
I proceeded to mow and trim the yard. I checked on the egg a few times after about 5 minutes I put the plate setter in and the Pizza stone. I left the vents open and went on with yard work. For probably 45 minutes the egg preheated.
I don't usually cook take and bakes ultra hot I try to keep it around 425-250. I cooked it for about 10 minutes and it was great! I usually have a hard time getting the top done without burning the bottom.
I am thinking that all the time preheating helped the ceramic all get hot and radiate heat from the top as well as the stone from the bottom. Am i correct to think there is more to Ceramic temp than the dome temp?
I remember my boss when I worked in a pizza place always turned the ovens on as soon as he opened the door.
Sorry about the quality of the pics. I tried using an Iphone instead of my camera.
