Dear Kent,
If you have read the posting that a poster gave you regarding FibraMent,
what is your objection to it?
Have you called them to ally your concerns?

Because no baking stone can be exposed directly to flame, FibraMent for
Grills includes a protective metal pan. FibraMent is placed in the metal
pan while it bakes your favorite pizza.

I'd be considering this product very seriously and quit struggling ;-)

Dee, who bakes thin pizza in conventional oven, getting stones to 600º and
who takes bread baking and pizza making quite seriously.

Best of luck.
