A better pic

I was debating taking some stone straight from the toaster oven and just throw it in a fire...maybe I should try some buried stuff first.  Of this batch of stone it seems 1 out of three stones comes out good and slick but man it is still super tough...

Thanks, Paul

Hawkdancer:
Some one a while back suggested sand over and under the stone and burning a 20 lb bag of charcoal over it.  Might as well broil your meat at the same time! (=) -C- :KN

I wouldn't throw any rock into a fire.  Dig a hole, put some rock in it and cover it back up and build a fire over it. Not a lot of your rock but enough to run an experiment with it.
