Unglazed so you aren't sucking fumes when the glazing burns off
Ceramic tiles are kiln fired for 20 hours at 2500° F........Do you think the glazing is going to burn off at a 350° for 45 minutes?
BTW......Ceramic glaze is powdered silica sand......AKA....glass.....I don't think I've ever had a Pyrex glass dish burn away in my oven belching toxic fumes....
Saltillo floor tiles are not ceramic glazed. They simply have a glaze sealant painted on that has to be renewed periodically. This glazing sealant will give off fumes when heated. Our old home had saltillo floor tiles. Just an FYI.
That said, a cast iron griddle (smooth one side, ridged on other) will also achieve the even heating; will multitask as a cooking surface; and won't break. We cook on it in the morning and bake with it at night after its cleaned. With rv space at a premium, it's handy.
