I have the old style kettle pizza where the stone is placed on the cooking grate.
We made the pizza and then left the stone on the grate to cool off and kept the stone on there. I live in the north east and we've had rotten weather. I've noticed that the grate rusted so I thought maybe it was a grate that was switched (camping, we take 2 22" one mine, one a friend). Called weber and they sent me a new one, they just thought it was a bad batch. Fast forward, made pizza again a few weeks ago and it seems that the same thing is happening again. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong?
Long story short, the pizza stone keeps rusting my 22" cooking grates. May have to consider getting a pizza steel instead.
Any advice is also appreciated.
