Prior his tenure at America's Test Kitchen, Andrew Janjigian, an associate editor for Cook's Illustrated, was an organic chemist, chef, mushroom cultivator, oven builder, and cooking instructor. Which is to say that his job at America's Test Kitchen is the only thing his peripatetic resume is good for. In his spare time, he enjoys long walks on the beach, bread baking, and pining for the day Boston has a decent pizza joint. Which he might just have to open himself if the city doesn't get its act together soon. Follow him on Twitter at @wordloaf.
Hi all, the test kitchen recommends the EXOProducts Super Peel (which is shown in the video), a regular wooden peel outfitted with a pastry cloth that’s threaded through the board like a conveyor belt: http://www.cooksillustrated.com/equipment/overview.asp?docid=10383

I see a bandaid but that is just part of being human
With ovens that reach only 500 degrees and dough that's impossible to stretch thin, even the savviest home cooks struggle to produce parlor-quality pies. We set out to change that.
With our test kitchen know-how (and relentless testing) we found ways to make naturally fast dishes faster, and traditionally slow-cooked dinners a weeknight option. But one thing we never did was settle on shortcuts that shortchanged flavor.
Noticing all the cuts on Andrew’s hands. I guess it’s occupational hazard…
What’s going on with the item between the pizza and the peel? I can’t figure it out.
I’d love to have you demonstrate your technique for getting the pizza on the stone.
Now how about showing us how to get that pizza off the peel and onto the stone?
