Does anyone know if it fits the Kettle Pizza? Thanks!

I was just looking at that this morning. It's thinner but it might be a nice lower cost option.

I asked on the Hunsaker Facebook group and there is a guy there using it. "It works great" was his comment.

The Kettle Pizza's baking steel that is designed to go onto the top of the kettle pizza also doubles as a griddle that can sit right inside your kettle.  Given that the Hunsaker is designed to fit into a kettle the same way in theory it should work.  The only difference is that the Kettle pizza has wider side vents. 

The only downside to using the Hunsaker is that cooking pizzas with it will likely burn off any seasoning you have built up.  The Kettle Pizza's baking steel is also stainless steel so you don't have to worry about it rusting.  So if you wanted to keep a dedicated Hunsaker for the kettle pizza and a dedicated Hunsaker for griddle cooking I think it would work well.
