The idea comes from a Reddit user who explains the technique: "Having recently done a lot of experimenting with 'upgrading' cheap frozen pizzas to make them taste less, well, cheap and frozen, this has been by far the most important trick. Commercial pizzas are baked in stone ovens that get up to 700-1000 degrees, which is why they bake so quickly and end up with nice crispy crusts and un-burned everything else. Your home oven will never get that hot but you can try to get as close as possible to emulate the effect. Cook the pizza on the bare rack to maximize air circulation if you don't have a pizza stone or a cast iron skillet/slab. If you have either of those, heat it in the oven first and then cook the pizza on that once the oven hits its max temperature."
