Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

Phew! I'm glad it all worked well for you, Alison

Yes, the amount of fat is amazing isn't it ..... no wonder they call it a health grill!

Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

I've got a small one of these without the removable plates but I find it very easy to clean. I usually do it the following day by heating it again for a few minutes and it cleans up really easily

I always cook my sausages on it. It takes a whole pack which I share with the dogs and loads of fat comes out into the drip tray. Its really good

Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

I've just bought a small one, not with removable plates as the reviews seemed to suggest that those models were slow to cook. Also the one I bought has a temperature control, which I thought might be useful. 45 Euros, so not a huge spend. About to try it for the first time today, cooking bacon for a BLT!

Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

Gee had one of those years ago ended up throwing it out
was to hard to clean
bought a turbo oven insted can cook enverything in and the fat drops sown to the glass so no fat cleaning is a breeze and you can see how its cooking
and it browns lovley

I love that you share with the dogs!

Do you poke the sausages with a fork to let the fat drain out or does the grill just do a good job of that anyway?

Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

Have to say that though I am happy with mine it annoys me that they market it as "healthy". Using a normal grill with a rack the fat drips down to the tray anyway so it's not as if these Foreman grills do anything special. But I find it easier to keep clean, as I hate washing the grill rack.

Ania darlin' if you line your grill tray with foil, it keeps it clean and you merely peel the foil off the tray and throw it away before relining the tray with more foil.

Re: George Foreman Healthy grills

Uncle Joe, I do line the tray with foil. But the rack still needs cleaning!
