I have 2 bags of the lava rocks unopened, and I've been tempted to take that 
deflector tray out and load the briquettes in.  I wonder if that's safe? 
Good to know you can still get the ceramic jobs though - those deflector 
trays don't hold the fat drippings, and I believe that a lot of the flavour 
is lost, as well as that heat distribution problem.

Maybe I'll try the lava rocks... hmm...
