My reply:
Nice granite stones; i.e. beach cobbles, that is what I would use rather
than bricks. The snarky judges of my experience just make take off if you
failed to document bricks, their manufacture and why you used modern ones
rather than making some in period fashion just for the purpose. With beach
cobbles or rounded river rocks all you have to do is document thier
occurance in the geographic vicinity of where the dish is set and the fact
that people did indeed use heated stones for a variety of purposes, i.e.
keeping thier feet warm.
