My 2 cents.....forget abt the pan. I've tried them - terrible
results. Get a decent stone and a peel. My stone is in the middle of
the oven - (electric). Use parchment paper tween dough and peel to
slide it more easily onto the stone.

Yank out the paper halfway thru the baking time. I always remove my
crust after 8 minutes, then add toppings, then put back into oven for
another 10-12 minutes.
