Smoked Nachos

This video popped up on my EweTube feed, and I'm always looking for new ideas and this video had a couple. Most of the video the host is making grilled salsa, and then cans it. Mom always canned veggies from our garden, and crates of apricots, cherries, pears, peaches, etc when they were available at the market (she never made salsa, we were Norwegian/German!). I never really paid much attention to the canning process itself, so that part of the video was pretty interesting to me (and has some wheels turning about other things I can do in retirement).
But, at the 7:30 mark, he makes nachos in a way that really caught my attention. He used Tostitos "Scoop" chips, and put just a little shredded cheddar into the bottom of each, and then onto the cool side of the grill (indirect for us). The cheese melted, chips got warm and smoky, and then he used them to dip the homemade salsa; Wow that looks good! He didn't film the chips going on/coming off, I think I'd rack them all up at once on a SS grate and set them in all at once, then remove them all at once, bump the doorframe on the way into the kitchen, and dump them all on the floor (I have this skill set).
Anyone else do nachos like this? I'm planning on trying it next weekend (less the canning exercise).
