Yes. You can cook it on a pan with a lil olive oil or buy a pizza stone. A pizza stone gives it a crisp “wood oven” taste. You can get one for about 10 $ at a kitchen store

The flat cooking surface of good pizza cooking ovens are stone. You can purchase a pizza stone for your oven. Alton Brown suggests an untreated terra cotta planter bottom. I had marginal success with the planter bottom. The heat transfer and drying qualities of the stone are key to excellent crust.

The wood or coal ovens cook at a temp that your home oven will not reach. Those type of pizza will be hard to reproduce at home.

Get a pizza stone and cook the pizza on top of that–helps make a crispy “restaurant” crust…. You can leave the stone in your oven all the time, it helps to regulate the temp…
