The versatile George Foreman Healthy Cooking Grill...

[asaratis]

Aside from its draining most of the grease from meats cooked on it, the GF Grill can be used for many of my favorite kitchen tasks. Since it heats from top and bottom with non-stick surfaces, it's a great way to heat up things that have long been cooked or don't need to be cooked...just heated. I've used mine to make grilled cheese and Cuban sandwiches, rejuvenate cold donuts, toast bagels, heat slices of chilled apple pie, make corrugated 'waffles' (requires leveling the bottom surface) and numerous other 'non-intended' uses, including heating ball bearings for installation on a tight fitting shaft.

My latest addition to the list is the reheating of cold pizza slices. Put a couple on the grill, set it to minimum to avoid charring and heat for a few minutes (five is about right). Slide the pieces onto a plate and enjoy!

I've also used it to grill shrimp and frozen/breaded fish sticks!

Seriously though, I remember our GFG not getting near hot enough to perform the tasks at hand.
But that was about 20 years ago so maybe they've gotten better.

Good for cooking shrimp but not so good for steaks IMO. They come out grey in color and tougher than a regular grill. Plus they're a bitch to clean.

Did you know that all 5 of George Foreman's sons were named George? The youngest is George VI. He also has a daughter named Georgetta.

Never tried the grill. But I did enjoy following his great boxing career.

That looks similar to my corrugated waffles!

Yes. Mine will burn anything left on too long.

Steaks do seem to suffer. Ground beef works okay. Mine cleans in a jiffy with a paper towel...both surfaces are teflon coated.

George Foreman was among the best of the heavyweights...and he had the sense to quit and become a successful business man. After being dethroned by Muhammed Ali, he quit boxing, came back 20 years later, nearly 50 years of age and regained the title. He is my all time favorite boxer.

Yeah, I like old George too. He had personality (still does), AND he's funny.

IIRC, when he went to the Olympics, he didn't trust the points system used in judging fights so he knocked his opponents out! No question about who won!

Good boxer, not very good grill.

Mine has collected dust since I bought it. Never really was impressed at all.

Why do people always say crap like that. Even see it on TV shows. It's a hot dog on bread.
