I like my foreman, but removable parts would be very nice.
The countertops in my kitchen hold many many gadgets and electronic devices. This does not stop me from wanting more.
Basketball practice was called for rain so I am going out to dinner with DH with Outback gift cards that he got from his soccer team. YaY sports! Then when we get home I have to watch
Lost
and
Alias
again since he missed them with his pool league last night. I can manage this.
We don't have the one with the lift-out grill plates. I keep a small pitcher of water and a spray bottle close, and immediately after unplugging the grill I pour the water over the bottom half of the grill. It deglazes, and most of it can be just wiped away. Sometimes it takes a second pitcher. For the top half I use the spray bottle and wipe. It cleans easily enough
Oh, I'll have to try that trick, 'cos our grill doesn't have the lift-out plates either. Other than that, I love our Foreman grill, and have often wondered how I lived without it.

Agreed, but he did deserve it.
Huh. I think I'm the only one who's 'meh' on the GF grill. Then again, I'm pretty gadget-avoidant. I just prefer poaching or broiling, I guess.
Timelies all!
My dad has learned about Googling people's names. He seemed rather proud of the stuff he found. He needs a real hobby.
I really dislike broiling. I would love a stovetop like a cousin has, with a grill on it, but if I can't have that, I need some decent way to do fish and burgers.
Guess I'm the lone Foreman naysayer -- we had one, but got rid of it ages ago because we never used it. Anything a Foreman's good for can just as easily be cooked in a skillet (or a grill pan or broiler), both of which are easier to clean afterwards and don't need to be plugged in.

I'm an
exceedingly
lazy cook. Lazy, lazy, lazy. Which is why I love the grill.
Lucky Fury.
Hee. He's love on a stick.
His assistant asked if we had ever met, if I wanted to be introduced to Fury. I just grinned.

Maybe it's the NYC-esque lack of counterspace, but I've never understood why cooking something in a Foreman grill is easier than cooking it in a skillet. It seems like a lot more work to me.
