Yes. The problem with pizza it transferring a fully made pie with an unbaked fresh crust so that it directly lands on that searing hot circle of a stone is like landing the Spruce Goose on an aircraft carrier in a high wind. I generally make the pizza on a cookie sheet coated with cornmeal, shake it back and forth to get the pizza moving, and then in an act of faith, flop it on to the hot stone. The results are not always pretty.
