I was reading s story where instead of a baking stone they used a floor tile from a hardware store to bake bread on. Would that work? Ideas of what to look for?

We tried one, broke the 3rd time. Went back to a baking sheet, we like small round loaves, more crusty goodness. We make a lot cowboy style in the dutch oven....James

I'd just buy a pizza stone since it's made to do what you want, and the extra mass will retain more heat.
As long as you don't drop it, it will last forever

I would also be concerned about the chemicals on just regular tile.
I use my stoneware and cast iron for about everything. They are an investment, but last forever!

I used granite tiles, one square foot and about 3/8 inch thick, put 2 of them polished sides together in the oven, they were in there for years and got things baked on them about once ever other month, no issues at all. now that I have no oven they reside in the garden

I almost exclusively bake bread in an enameled cast iron Dutch oven or a covered clay loaf pan. But, I do have a 3/8" stainless steel plate that resides in the oven for thermal mass and as a pizza pan. I have a smaller one for the wood cook stove also. They make a heck of a difference in temperature swings.
