They did not cook on hot rocks, they cooked with hot rocks.
The Crow warrior Two Leggings recalled, when he was a boy, his older brother Wolf Chaser showing him the technique of boiling meat quickly using the materials found nearby: using his knife he dug a small pit in the ground then arrange four short sticks so they would hold the stomach of a buffalo over the pit. When filled with water the bag formed by the buffalo stomach was supported by the bottom and sides of the pit. Pieces of meat were dropped in.
Meanwhile a small fire was made to heat rocks nearby and as soon as they were very hot he carried them using forked sticks and dropped them into the water; as they cooled more hot rocks took their place and they were taken out and re-heated in the fire.
In this way the water was quickly brought to the boil and the meat was cooked.
The tribe commonly known as Assiniboine, from the northern Plains, got their name from this technique; from the Ojibwa words asinii (stone) and bwaan (the Sioux people) - so "Stone Sioux", because of their use of hot stones in cooking.

How do you cook the hard fruit in virtual villagers the tree of life?
You heat the rocks in the rock pit, then cover the hot rocks with the banana leaf things. It will take a coupe of villagers to get all the rocks hot at the same time. If you take too long, the first hot ones will cool down. After the fire pit is hot, it stays hot indefinitely. Shake down the fruit and the villagers will automatically place them on the fire pit.
