George Foreman grill
 

this thing is the greatest!

but i lost my drip pan / fat catcher where can I get another one without replacing the unit?

Re: George Foreman grill
 

Use an ashtray or look for one of those small cheap disposable plastic containers. Lots of them are pretty low to the ground. Cut it with an exacto knife or a pair of scissors if it isn't. A lot less trouble.

i agree this is a fantastic product, especially for a college kid

that's too sloppy even for a kid who uses a Foreman grill and eats Ramen.

tin foil - make a little "boat" out of it

Re: George Foreman grill
 

Very good.

P.S. the sink dealie may warrant an eventual bill from the plumber.

The tin foil idea is best.

I have had two of these, and neither of them get warm enough to cook meat like i like, and there's better way to make sandwiches. I vote no.

Re: George Foreman grill
 

I got one and I'm sorry I did. I don't know what possessed me to ... one of the few times I guess advertising really did a number on me.

Gimme a frying pan any day.

Interesting, why do you prefer the frying pan?

Re: George Foreman grill
 

You can steam in it, do sauces in it, it's vastly easier to clean, you can get more fond on it(good for gravies) because more of the meat contacts the heated surface, the heat gradation is easier to get just right, it doesn't take up so much space, it's easier to fit oddly shaped pieces of food in.

You collect it, let it harden, and then when you need it, you fry egg and chips (err, I mean freedom fries) in it.

Then you dump it down the sink.

Re: George Foreman grill
 

why don't you just goto any cookware store, i.e. crate and barrell or even the cookware section in a dept store, I'm sure you find a similar item that will work.

I used to use it a lot, but found it a b!tch to clean. Havent used it in like 2 years...

You can spread it on bread to eat too, once hardened (actually this is more true of the fat coming from a joint of beef). It's called 'dripping' down our way.

We use it all the time, let the grease harden. Put a wick in it and make it into a candle and give it as a christmas present

the key is to clean it while its still really got. After you pull the meat off just rub it down with a wet paper towel (obviously with enough thickness so you dont burn yourself), takes like 10 seconds and it gets super clean.

Absolutely the best/easiest way.

I like the Forman for cooking a burger when it's too cold to go outside and use the grill.

Re: George Foreman grill
 

yeah, it makes decent burgers. It's not too hard to grill a bunch of stuff on it. we routinely use it for burgers, chicken, and stuff like that even though it's not absolutely necessary.

Re: George Foreman grill
 

I have one and think it is useless.
