Can I make a pizza in the oven without a pizza stone?
Chef's answer
If you don't have a pizza stone or a pizza peel, you can still do this! After you stretch out the dough, lay it down on a wide sheet pan dusted with cornmeal. Then sauce and top the pizza as described, and transfer the whole pan directly into the oven. And when it's done, just pull the whole thing out.
