THE BEST LAVA ROCK IN THE WORLD!
OUR LAVA STONES DON'T EXPLODE & ARE SOURCED IN THE USA
HAND-SORTED AND SIZED FOR FIRE - These rocks are sorted for size. No small rocks falling through your grate and less messy dust. Smallest nugget size 1-1/4". (You may see minimal breakage during shipping).
LAVAFY is a US Brand owned by Americans. We source our lava rock from U.S. quarries.
LOW MOISTURE CONTENT - Our rock comes from dry climates. This is very important as you do not want moisture caught inside your rock. (NEVER USE LANDSCAPING ROCK in your grill or any flame environment. When water trapped deep in the rock turns to steam, the pressure can actually cause the rocks to explode!)
HEAT RETENTION - Natural lava rock helps to retain heat, especially on cold or windy days. It also increases your grill's maximum temperature.
BETTER GRILLING FLAVOR - Super-heated rocks vaporize drippings creating smoke to add grilling flavor.
FRIEND TO WOOD CHIPS - Lava rocks are a convenient base for wood chips. Place wood chips directly on the rock. A separate box is not needed. When the wood chips burn up, it's easy to add more.
FLARE-UP SUPPRESSION - Multiple layers of porous rock absorb much of the grease they don't vaporize, reducing the amount that can catch fire.
