Quick answer
The Kamado Joe Wooden Pizza Peel does its one job: launching the pizza. It's made of premium pine, and raw dough doesn't stick to wood the way it does to cold metal, so the pizza slides clean onto the hot stone with that wood-fired-oven motion. Designed for Kamado Joe's DoJoe and any kamado with a stone. It's for anyone who bakes pizza and just wants to load the raw base. If you need to turn and pull the baked pizza out, the wood is thick and clumsy: there a thin metal peel like the Ooni wins.
The traditional Italian peel in premium pine wood: raw dough doesn't stick to wood the way it does to metal, so the pizza slides clean onto the hot stone. Designed for Kamado Joe's DoJoe attachment and any kamado with a pizza stone.
Wood has a virtue aluminium lacks: raw dough won't stick to it, which makes loading the pizza and sliding it onto the stone far easier for beginners. The trade-off is that wood is no good for retrieving or turning a baked pizza — a thin metal peel is better for that. The ideal is to own both: wood to launch, metal to retrieve and turn.
Pine wood: raw dough won't stick, ideal for launching pizza. To retrieve and turn it, pair with a thin metal peel.

FAQ
Why a wooden peel and not metal?
Wood is the "launch" peel: raw dough slides off it without sticking better than off metal, especially if you dust with semolina. For launching the pizza into the oven or kamado it is perfect; to turn or retrieve it once cooked many prefer a thin metal peel like the Ooni aluminium. Owning both is the home pizzaiolo combo.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No, never put wood in the dishwasher: heat and prolonged water crack and warp it. Wipe it with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately; an occasional rub of mineral oil extends its life. Treated this way a wooden peel lasts for years.
Does it work for kamado pizza or only in an oven?
It works for both: with a pizza stone inside the kamado (over the deflector) you get a crisp base and the peel slides the dough without burning your hand. It works equally well in a wood or pizza oven. To get the most out of it, pair it with a good stone like the Onlyfire cordierite and a wheel cutter.
