Frequently Asked Questions
Is Stoneware safe to use over an open flame?
No, stoneware is not recommended for use over an open flame. It is designed for use in conventional ovens, microwaves, and some grills, but direct contact with an open flame can cause the stoneware to crack or break due to the sudden temperature change.
Can I use Pampered Chef stoneware on a gas stovetop?
Using Pampered Chef stoneware on a gas stovetop is not advisable. The direct heat from the flames can damage the stoneware and lead to uneven cooking or potential breakage. It's best to use stoneware in the oven or microwave.
What happens if I accidentally use stoneware on an open flame?
If stoneware is used on an open flame, it may crack or shatter due to thermal shock. This can not only ruin the stoneware but also pose a safety hazard. If this happens, discontinue use immediately and dispose of any damaged pieces.
Are there any safe methods to cook with stoneware outdoors?
While stoneware should not be used directly over an open flame, it can be safely used on a grill with indirect heat. Placing the stoneware on the grill grates away from direct flames allows for even cooking without risking damage to the stoneware.
Can I use stoneware in a fire pit or campfire?
No, stoneware should not be used in a fire pit or campfire. The extreme and uneven heat can cause the stoneware to crack. For outdoor cooking, consider using cookware specifically designed for high-heat applications.
