Just got one of these for free off my parents who never even used it, cooked up some burgers this evening and OMGWTFBBQ! amazing!
I think this is going to be a KEY part of my kitchen in the years to come :)
Any other proud George Foreman Grill owners?

Wow, after the super juicy hamburgers I just had and the sper good meat I had at my bros house with it... Maybe you cook it too long? I'll have to watch out for the dryness... |

I've got one. BNIB. Now taking offers...
No seriously, do you guys actually use yours? I'd rather just throw stuff on the BBQ or in the microwave. |

Microwave always ftl in my book and I live in an apartment with no balcony which makes using a bbq especially difficult. |

yeah she doesnt wants me to use it.. she is one of those "Diet" types.. as soon as she sees there is so much fat coming out the meat shes like wow this machine really is good. and then you get a dry piece of meat.:( |

I found it dried meats out too much too. It cooks the outsides very quick & on more than one occasion i was ill cos the insides weren't cooked properly. I have a nice griddle pan & I tend to just use a low fat cooking oil, gently baste the meat & cook in there & I find the oxygen around it gets a better overall cook, and non-dryness. |

Wow, Ill.
My burgers were pretty perfect just a minute ago, but after hearing these reports, I'll definately have to keep my eye on this piece. Gonna do some chicken on it this weekend- I expect it to do well, chicken cooks pretty quickly.
Dryness of meat is one thing that REALLY annoys me so if this ends up doing that to other stuff, I'll be kind of annoyed.
ALSO, no fat dripped into the pan on these burgers (which i thought was weird) but i cooked em for the amount of time suggested and they came out perfectly and were good, so yall might just be cooking for too long. |

| Another vote for too much drying of da meat, yo. :( Which is sad, cuz you can cook up mad food quick on these babies. |
