Who's got a George Foreman grill?

[TrueBlueLS]

I just cooked a porterhouse steak using my parent's appliance. It just wasn't the same as it would be off the BBQ.

 

[Doodoo]

I jus use it for burgers late at nite

 

[NetworkDad]

I do - i got the family size one as a christmas gift. Unfortunately, i haven't tried steak yet. But burgers, fish, and chicken have all come out quite well. Very moist and quick to cook.

No, not the same, but a great appliance nonetheless..

We make turkey burgers on ours.. 1lb ground turkey + 1 pack Lipton onion soup mix.. Yumm...

You can't get the charcoal taste on the foreman grill but I actually do enjoy sirloins and ny strips on the foreman grill. Just throw some crushed pepper on there and it is good to go. Cook it for like a minute on each side.

Damn, good idea - never thought of using the liption packs. I'll try that.

burgers, dogs, and chicken are fine on it. it does tend to burn marinade though.

I love it, bacon comes out great also not as greasy!

I eat steaks on mine all you have to do is properly season the steaks and they come out just fine

...who DOESN'T have a George Foreman grill?

It's definetly the best TV product ever.

 

[xSauronx]

/me has a hard time buying things he sees on tv

maybe some time, my house is full of stuff, is there an outdoor stand and grill cover i can get for it?

I've only cooked burgers on it, they come out ok. I have the family-sized one, with the timer. Now, question, do you close the lid when you're cooking, or leave it open. I tend to notice when I cook burgers on it, with the lid closed, it burns them, and slightly overcooks them, but I'm using the recommended times that came with the manual. Suggestions?

 

[FoBoT]

they are good for fatty stuff, like hamburger and bacon and junk

real meat like steak is different

 

[jarsoffart]

I got one... for free!! I haven't used it yet though. I've heard from friends that it's wonderful though.

 

[Pliablemoose]

They work pretty good, buy a big one if you get one though.

Have to pay attention to cooking times & seasoning.

Now to get that new Samsung microwave/toaster oven combo Text

This is a GREAT seasoning, I hear it's what's used @ Outback.. May be a regional thing. Makes steaks and burgers taste awesome..
I use the flavor in the white canister in the pic. I'll have to try the others!

Ah! And you can get a Free Sample too.

I have one and love it. I'm on my second.

The coating wears off on mine though. It doesn't seem to like marinated meat, which is often what I cook.

I like to cook salmon, seasoned steaks, marinated steaks, teriyaki chicken thighs, kabob sticks, bell peppers brushed with olive oil, etc.

I used mine three times, 18 months ago, and it has been the refrigerator ever since.

If the coating is comming off, you are letting your unit overheat. I don't imagine that flakes of teflon are particularly good for you, either. :Q

Teflon is very inert stuff and it will probably go through the GI tract without any problems. But the adhesive that is used to attached the teflon to the grill......

Why the refrigerator? Do you keep your other pots & pans in there, too?

Ouch. Shall I buy a new grill then?

Got one from my wife for Father's Day. We generally do hamburgers or steak, but those little preformed hashbrown patties come out perfectly!

 

[lilFajita]
