Guide Review - George Foreman Grill

These very popular grills cook quickly on both sides at the same time and excess fat is channeled off into a tray. They come in several sizes, from a very small single size to a 200 square inch party size. Clean-up is easy if food isn't allowed to cool on the surface, and something like cooked-on cheese might be difficult to remove.
Grill chicken and burgers for sandwiches, or grill fish or meat for a family meal. A great gift for a student who can use small appliances in their dorm or apartment. Some models come with a warmer for sandwich buns
