Artestia Steak Stone Grill Set with 2 Granite Stones & 1 Bamboo Tray - Premium Reusable Cooking Stone for Sizzling Steaks, BBQ, Hibachi, Kitchen & Outdoor Grilling - Heat-Resistant Natural Granite

I love these cooking stones. I place the stone in my smoker when I turn it on so that it warms up with the smoker. Our steaks turned out juicy and tender, perfect.

Got a set to try them because there are no "Steak on a Stone" type places near me, but I have enjoyed it in the past. These worked really well, and cleaned up nicely in the dishwasher (did take 2 cycles). Overall they stayed hot enough to cook an entire meal on. Only issue is they could be a little bit bigger (maybe 1-2 more inches in length and an inch wider). Overall I would recommend these, even comparted to the Black Rock versions these are less expensive and do the same job.

The media could not be loaded. The stones are a very good value when they are the dimensions they are stated to be. As you can see by the pictures one of the stones was just was just under 7/8" while the other was 1" as it should be. This is fairly significant as the mass of the stone is directly proportionate to the amount of cooking time. Upon contacting Amazon they have made it right. The stones only require a thorough warm water rinsing, high temperature curing, and cooling before being used. There after you just heat them up to over 500° F and then cook away. They'll sear for 10-15 minutes and continue to be able to cook for around 30-40 minutes total time if heated properly and to a hot enough temperature. Every bite is hot and cooked exactly as you like. If you're cooking really fat steaks you might be best served to sear them at the end of the stones heating cycle. The steaks in the picture were about 2" thick and were set on the stones raw after heating. They cooked fine but towards the end the cooking took longer. I would recommend smaller pieces or searing during the end of the heating cycle as I stated earlier. Overall they make for a fantastic way to cook steaks or any other thing you might like in a unique way.

I saw it in a local restaurant and loved it so I ordered one (Actually it comes in a pair of 2).The results were wonderful just like in the restaurant!The fact that we had two stones helped as when one of them was used the other was still in the oven and we could swap from one to another when the one on the table got too cold (After about 10 to 15 minutes )The only challenge was not to get burned when we swap them... It is a bit scary to put the new stone on its place (Inside the wooden board ).Otherwise it is really wonderful.

We hosted a steak and hot rock night at our home and invited friends and family. They each got a rock (either a big rock to share or individual singles) and it worked out well!!The stones did have issue keeping temperature throughout the cooking process (we all had medium rare steaks by the end of it) but that was with all the stones, NOT just this particular brand!!I would suggest to others to buy this rock set!! It heated well and was so easy!! I felt safe to transport the heated rock from the oven to dinner table!! And easy cleaning, the best kind!! LolPlease Note: I would suggest to stay with the granite rock NOT the lava!! Someone in our group did get the lava rock in hopes that it would reserve the heat better!! But there was little difference between the two kinds and the lava rock had various sized pits on the surface, causing it to be hard to clean!!

Absolute great deal on two stones. Heated them at 550 degrees for 1 hour and when the cooking started we had more than enough time to enjoy filet, shrimp and some veggies. There is a restaurant not too far from us that serve food on lava rocks. The cost is more than this set of stones. I would highly recommend this set. The only drawback was the set only included one bamboo board. I just picked up a cookie sheet at the dollar store, cut it in half, riveted it together and placed it in a cutting board. Worked just fine

The hardwood stone tray was not so hard. Lasted a little bit. Did nothing to cause the break.

I never would’ve guessed that this manufacturer only includes one wood tray, even though two of the lava rock stones come in the kit? Why would they do such a cheap move like that?? I did not even read the fine print because I obviously assumed if I was buying two stones in a package that it came with two trays these items are heated to 500°. You cannot set them down on anything. You must have one tray for each stone.!! Very disappointed!!
