Good looking burger!

Obviously everything is amazing, as I would expect from any of your posts, but I gotta say my heart soared when I saw those tater tots.

I've done it this way and it's really not a problem if you have a HOT fire to start. Part of the appeal (for me) is that there is a lot more surface area for crust to form, yes, that crunchy goodness on the outside of the burger. If it is cooked hot initially to sear, then it holds its shape, although sometimes a piece may pop off (which can be eaten before the wife catches you). I do turn the heat down after the initial sear though. For a slower cook, I don't see as much advantage with this method.

Very nice Bob. Automatic win worthy. Even though I highly frown upon iceberg.

I like butter crunch lettuce in place of iceberg, when I can get it.

You know, the only time I ever buy iceberg lettuce if for Throw Downs, or when I am at a steak house and order the Wedge salad. Otherwise, I never buy it. BTW, I so rarely buy it, but, the iceberg heads suck now. My mom would have killed me for showing up after shopping with the tiny, loose, light heads of lettuce.
