Pizza stone won’t stop smoking

[u/PetalbrookMayor]

Hello!

My parents recently gave me an old pizza stone they had. I’ve used it a couple times already but I’ve noticed that it smokes once it’s been heated up in the oven.

After researching, I found maybe it had some oils seeped into it and it was recommended that I basically just put it into the oven and let it all smoke out.

However, I’ve been doing that for over an hour on 475° and the pizza stone is still smoking. It’s not a heavy smoke but when I open the oven there’s definitely some smoke that comes out.

What does this mean? Should I just let it go even longer? Or is it done for and I should just buy another one?

Thank you!
