Now, I might be making this part up, but if they are above the propane burners I would imagine they're there for heat retension and grease protection if you don't have any sort of metal plates. My grill has these V-shaped long metal plates that run the length of the propane burners and I believe they serve two purposes. They capture and radiate the heat from the propane burners and they, more importantly, deflect dropping meat bits and grease so my burners don't get all greasy and clogged up. In your first grill, those rocks might be taking on that role if you don't have something similar. If you have a metal plate over the propane burners to deflect falling grease, then I doubt you'll need rocks. This sounds like the start to my next post... :) If the rocks are underneath the propane burners, then I have no idea. :) Hi Peggy,

Should you have rocks in the bottom of your propane grill? I got one second hand, and it had rocks in the bottom, and then when I got my new one, I didn't put rocks in it. If they're supposed to be there, is there a certian kind, or can I just pluck some rocks out of the desert, and stick them in there? So that’s what those gray lines are from! lol
