I made steaks on the GFG last night. My SO who loves steaks, and is a die hard charcoal grille fan, acually said 'that George Foreman makes a good steak!' I pointed out he had a little help from me, because i did dust them with olive oil and season them. If the SO liked the steaks, anyone would. He's so picky about his meat.
Melissa, you gotta go get one! And Ken, I really think Sandie needs one as well
Colby..My next two investments will be a crockpot (I found a 5 qt one I may get soon) and a GFG. My hubby has been reading this thread and he looked at me the other day and said 'We have GOT to get one of those!' :LOL: Actually, when hes home from work at mealtime (a rarity) hes an excellent cook
so I think he'll probably take over ownership of it once we get one :laughing2
I had a GFG for a few years, was excited about it at first, but got really tired of the pain that it was to clean.
Then I found the Health Zone grill by ?Windmere? (maybe). Not only are the grill surfaces removable, they are also dishwasher-safe! Now, it doesn't tilt like the GF grill, but I just stick a big knife under the back feet when I cook something with lots of fat (that's not too often, though). It also has a little removable drawer instead of the drip tray, and it's bigger than the trays so you don't have to change it as much.
I bought mine at Canadian Tire, but I have seen them at Zellers and Costco as well. It was about $60. It works as well as the GF grill, but without all the cleaning hassles. You just wait until it cools, then pop the grills and the drip drawer into the dishwasher. Even if you don't have a dishwasher, it is easier, since you can put the stuff right into the sink.
This is so wierd! My husband was telling me last night that his board was talking about these grills (he's on a body building board) and now he wants one. I said that's great because I want one too. He was suprised that we were talking about them on a cat site, but I asked him how much more strange it is that they were talking about them on a body building site. Anyway, I bet I'll get one now! Where can you buy them?
If you don't want to cry while peeling onions (according to Martha Stewart) chew gum. I would like a GFG, but as the hubby is the main cook & he doesn't want one I doubt we'll ever get one
