No love for iron skillets? I've had some pretty good results cooking pizzas in a home settings with it. It sounds weird but it gets decently close the the quality of a stone oven, something to do with the heat conductivity of cast iron: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXAW2GseICs

You cook it on the hob for a few minutes to cook the bottom, constantly shuffling the skillet round to get that random charring, then a few more minutes in a pre-heated oven as close to the broiler as possible.

Great for deep dish pizza as well, if you're into that.
