    Yes they are real. took some time to the bacon like I wanted tried them on a smoker to long and not hot enough, next was the grill, charcoal, not to close to the heat or the cookie filling melts out to far and the bacon does not crisp. easier to precook the bacon then wrap and finish on the grill.

    Sand/water/lava rock as thermal mass

    I would put them over the hot spots first to try and dissipate the hot spots first. I placed them in my smoker to see what would happen as far as temp and also to get rid of the hot spots. no hot spots equals a better cook and less worry.

    Sand/water/lava rock as thermal mass

    I used sand in a pan covered with foil. Now I use firebrick covered in foil. The brick is easier to clean after you are done cooking and I had numerous times where the sand got "wet" from cooking and had to throw it away and get more.

    This is a BBQ not a smoker and yes after the coals are going move under the grate to grill or just start the fire under the grill. After a good scrub inside and out and start with a small fire to "season" and burn out and bugs that may be inside. Once you get a fire going in it you will have...
