The last couple of newsletters (December 27 & 28), there has been a bit of talk about Foreman Grills.
One common complaint has been CLEANING them.
The Foreman Grill cleans easily, if you do the following:
As soon as you unplug it, take a double layer of paper towels (that's two paper towels, one on top of the other) the length of your grill. Wet the paper towels with water from your tap. Place the wet paper towels on the UNPLUGGED, but STILL HOT grilling surface. Close the lid, and wait for the grill to cool down.
As the grill is cooling, the heat from the grill causes steam with the water on the paper towels, and will steam the grill clean of anything that is stuck on. Once cooled, simply remove the paper towels, and discard, and wipe the grill clean with another paper towel.
I've been doing this since shortly after I got my Foreman Grill, about three years ago, and with this, I see no need to "update" to removable grill plates, for easier cleaning.
Also, meats can be marinated, or have dry rubs put on them, before cooking on the grill, which makes them come out very tasty and juicy. Just remember to watch your grill, and pay attention to the recommended cooking times, adjusting slightly for thicker or thinner cuts of meat, and you'll never have a problem with your food coming out dry.
