@JeanneCake, is the reason RLB is putting the frozen pie on the oven floor is because the oven floor is especially hot?
I have a ceramic pizza stone which sits permanently in my gas oven. I think it helps the oven have a more reliable temperature (range is 50ºF at least). It's up about 6 or 8" from the broiler, but I put the pans for items I'm baking directly on the stone. Because I had to look up what the stone is actually called, I learned it's oven and grill-safe to 2000ºF. Of course, my oven only goes to 550ºF.
Would you expect this would suffice for a frozen pie shell?
