I did it with the lid closed to try & replicate the intense heat & the small opening of a traditional tandoor.

Are you finding it's taking similar times?
Yes exactly the same. I just thought you might have had more heat in there with it being a ceramic.

No - i doubt it. It's down to the charcoal given that you are cooking them so close to it. Not sure they are on there long enough to benefit from the lid being on, but I did it anyway - guess it might cook them slightly quicker, but it'll be marginal.
