Briquettes, lava rocks, tiles, etc are generally used in well-made barbecue grills to conduct grilling heat at the grilling surface. Briquettes and other heat conductors are installed just below the cooking grates in order to radiate heat at the cooking grid to make a barbeque into a grill. In lesser-made barbecues heat conductors are used to spread heat in a fire box where the barbeque grill burners do not heat the area evenly. Each gas barbeque will use briquettes, lava rocks, tiles differently with different heat shields, briquette grids and flavorizer plates.

Weber and many other barbecue grill manufacturers do not use briquettes or any other kind of conduction layer. This kind of barbecue heats up the air trapped insoide the BBQ hood and the hot air surrounds the food to cook it.
Alfresco infrared gas barbecue grills also use briquettes above their stainless steel U burners that are not infrared. The briquette cause drippings to vaporize and allow the griller to add extra heat at the coking surface.
DCS has long been considered one of the most effective barbecue grill manufacturers using heat conduction systems. The porcelain rods inside a DCS barbeque grill allow the grill to heat above 900 degrees because of the radiant temperatures coming from the rods below the cooking surface. The additional radiant heat augments the convection heat trapped inside the hppd.
