From Weber's Chicken & Sides. This was a decent meal. Made some veggie skewers on the side. The blackberry sauce portion of the recipe should be doubled in my opinion, and I should have used the peaches prior to them ripening so much. It was **** tasty however.

Looking good Hayden! Yes, I often just double sauce recipes from the get go, extra is always welcome anyhow. I vac seal in those widemouth pint and half pint jars for next time around. I like this combo!

You have some kind of stone on the coal rack in your kettle? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Thanks Chris. The peaches were good, although next time I need to use peaches that aren't as ripe as I allowed these to get. They were a bit soft and mushy. I'd have liked them to have been a bit more firm. They were great raw though...I ate three while making the skewers. LOL

As for your question...I do, yes. I have two fire bricks. I use them offset as my charcoal separators/retaining wall for when I cook indirect. I used them the first time about a year ago when I was doing a brisket for my first time. They do several things nicely. In addition to creating a nice barrier between your hot zone and your indirect zone, they also allow you to build your coals up really close to the grate...which in combination with a cast iron grate, is fantastic for searing.

Here are a couple of pictures from my brisket cook. I think these best show how I employ them.

Heydon,I cut the corner of one of the fire bricks so they line up nice and strait for my drip pan.You dont need to take much off the corner to make it work.
