Default can JB Weld be used to anchor bolts in concrete or brick?

I have two pavers (one brick and another concrete) that I recently
obtained for a special project. I had to drill four 1/4" holes near
each corner for placement of an anchor bolt. When I did this yesterday,
I didn't realize that there was something called anchoring epoxy, so I
drilled all the way through. Each bolt has a head so I went all the way
through and then used a stop nut on the non-headed end; probably not the
best way. Anyway, now the bolt of course rotates when I try to secure
the paver to wood. I was just thinking of placing a small amount of JB
Weld into each hole to stop the rotation of the anchor and wondered if
this could work? Don't see the need now for spending twenty something
on concrete epoxy for something this small and it's pretty much done,
just need to stop the bolt rotation.

Thanks!
