I use mine all the time, i banks some coals on one side and i use a couple of bricks as a barrier and heat sink and place food on other side of grill. Here is a photo of my setup from smoking a roast. You can see the coals, bricks next to them, There is also that aluminum foil you see i was using that to block any direct heat from the coals- a have just started setting a couple of bricks above the bottom ones instead to achieve this. I also cover the half of the great under food with foil to help airflow and usueally i have a pan under it as well. This sounds like a lot maybe, but once youve done it, it really is simple
