I think if you follow the par-baking directions for freezing your pizza, you'll be able to avoid the melting dough problem. A pizza stone that has been preheated for an hour delivers similar results to a brick oven, which is hard to replicate with a metal pan. Pizza screens are a cheaper alternative and can give you a crisp, thin crust. And pizza stones are really great. I think it's time for someone to get you one for a present. Barb@KAF
