George Foreman Grill Question !!!!!

[NickV344]

I'm thinking about buying a george foreman grill to cook my chicken and stuff. Has anybody used one to cook chicken? if so how did it taste? and also what else can I cook on one of these? I need some ideas and input. thanks fellas.

It always cooks it too dry for me...but i suck at timing so its probably something I'm doing wrong. I use my stovetop grill to cook mine. I cut chicken breasts into strips and then just thrown them on the grill, I use regular peper and and cayan pepper, and then just Sprinke some good ole hot sauce. Been doing it like this for about a month and not getting tired of it yet.

Edited because my dumbass can't spell.

yea...hot sauce is the sh*t on chicken....Franks red hot sauce mmmm

[Fat Guy]

I liked my grill. It tended to be quick and easy and my chicken was always tasty. Franks is the sh!t … I love that stuff. However it is a little to high in sodium for me but I still grub it.

thanks fellas. but can you cook bacon, eggs, etc. on the grill???

You can, but it's a pain in the ass.

Are you f*ucking kidding. I thought that everyone had a George Forman Grill. I got one at home and one at work. You do have to get the timing right though, otherwise it will come out dry. Somehow I have profected this one. Get one there well worth the price, trust me!

My George Foreman is one of the best bodybuilding supplies I have ever purchased.

.........I like mine too, but Man, are they a buzzard to clean! Anybody got some dynamite cleaning tips?? I saw a new model for $100.00 the other day that lets you remove the grates and put them in the dishwasher - that would be great!! (pun intended).

When I warm it up to cook food, once it's warm I use the scraper that it came with and scrape out the channels, then wipe the outer channel with a wet paper towel. Very easy, takes like 1 minute or less. It's very easy to clean once the unit is warm, as nothing sticks.

how long does it usually take to cook chicken on it ?

depends on the size of the piece of chicken, best thing to do is invest in a probe to check core temp. of foods and remember all food should be 75 degrees Celcius at least

[Rob]

wouldnt it be the same to cook it on the bbq?

If you want to cook outside (weather permitting) fire up a huge grill for 1 piece of chicken, deal w/charcoal, lighter fluid, etc.

No thanks.

and if you want to cook eggs then they sell a 60 dollar one that has a griddle attached. But yeah i cook everything on mine. Even my top round steaks go on the foreman

I have 2 foreman grills... a massive "double" grill that will cook an entire turkey, and a nice small one just big enough for 2 burger patties.

I like the small one better personally as it takes up less counter space and is a lot easier to clean.

I cook mostly burger patties (extra lean ground beef held together with 100mg of egg whites), chicken breasts and salmon steaks.

It all comes out nicely, but you have to check your food a lot or else you overcook it and it becomes dry.

can you guys give a list of stuff that you have cooked or can be cooked on the thing ? all i hear about is people cooking chicken on it is there more things it can be used for?

[SwoleCat]

Everything you can cook on the stove basically. Chicken breasts, thighs, turkey, steaks, pork chops, hamburgers, turkey burgers, fish, etc.

wrap my chicken in aluminum foil before cooking. keeps chicken moist and best part is that there is NO CLEANUP.. none!!

[NickV344]

thanks fellas you rule

[stayinstacked]

I got the biggest foreman they make, the Jumbo George, I wish I never bought the **** thing as it takes up the entire countertop on either side of my sink, its such a bit*h!! I dont like it for chicken, but for lean beef it's the way to go, mine has the non stick surface starting to wear off of it!!

[Syndicate]

Mine is de-sticking as well not sure why, I've gone through 2 about now.

...Come to think of it, I think that's why I find mine a beeyoch to clean. I've used it so much that the non-stick stuff is disintegrating. I'm gonna pick up the "dishwasher safe" model and give it a whirl. I'll report to the crew later!
