Your simplistic ways are your downfall. Why the

I'm an idea person, I'm always on the lookout

Ditto, Dave.  I nearly always use a cast iron
skillet to cook burgers.  Excellent heat
conduction, great browning, able to cook them to
just your preferred doneness.  A grill works for
that, too.  I'm not sure what "new ideas" dsi1 is
looking

for.  >>>>>> > It's just hamburgers.

David, mainlanders, especially from the south DEFINATELY
cook with heat retention.  They may not think of it, but
they know it, everytime they select a pan.

Steaks, pork chops, pancakes, pineapple upside down cake.....

Adding to the list: chicken or fish cooked in skillet.  Fried
potatoes, any number of vegetables.  Heat retention is important
in cooking no matter what culture.  Imagine cooking food in a
cheap-ass wok that can't hold the heat for a stir-fry.

I suspect the fish would really matter if cooked in some oil.  You
need the heat to get a good crispy result.

Either way, David is trying to change subject.  Dave says 'pulling a

Actually, I'm the one who said he's sounding like the new Sheldon,
who always scoffed at cast iron cookware.  This is typical David:
"Americans don't cook with heat retention.  Hawaiians, on the other
hand, certainly do".  Then posts a youtube link showing people
cooking food in a huge pit dug in the ground, as though Hawaiians
cook their everyday food in pits all the time.

 Sorry, thought it was Dave, maybe both of you?
 Anyways, note 'Americans don't...' then Hawaii as if a different
country...
 

In many respects it is a different country, same holds for Puerto Rico.
Why does that damage your national self-esteem so?
Maybe you should call the Navy and have them send some gunboats upriver to quell his culinary rebellion, eh?
