    Fire brick question

    I’m going to try some pizzas on the ol’ 26 inch kettle this spring/summer and was wondering what type of fire bricks folks are using to elevate their pizza stones. Also, where do I get these bricks? None of the hardware stores carry them out here. Thanks!

    You might just try banking the coals way to the back and a little to the sides and putting the stone directly on the grate. If you do find you need to elevate any red brick should work as it's been kiln fired.

      I bought mine at Home Depot. Don't know the brand. Bin just said firebricks. In masonry section.

        I have a stainless steel roasting rack that is adjustable. I just put it on the high elevation, and put the stone on top.

          I am currently using halves. There are 2 sizes of firebrick. Full and half. Call your local concrete supplier, they will have them.

          Fulls are usually about $3.75 each, halves are $2.75

            I appreciate everyone’s feedback. I’m going to try a local masonry supplier.

              Called a local supplier and they have them for $1.65 a brick. Nice.

            Schell’s Firebrick, a refreshing Vienna-style amber lager, is named after the bricks that line the old boilers. It's hint of hops combined with a subtly maltiness creates a mild, pleasantly drinkable beer.


            I believe this Shell's Firebrick goes very well with pizza. Sorry, I couldn't help but post this. Shells is an OLD Family owned Brewery only 80 miles from me.
