[Small-Appliance-Cooking] two questions about grills and bareecues

Thu Apr 26 19:34:28 UTC 2018

I didn’t know you could do that.  I don’t have a Forman grill, but I have seen one.  The thing I didn’t like about the one I saw was that it had a long narrow plastic tub that’s supposed to be a grease catcher.  It’s not attached to the grill at all, it just sits in front of it, up against it.  There are other ones by makes like Hamilton Beach that have a grease tray underneath that slides out like a drawer for you to clean and empty.  Pam.

Whenever I cook burgers on my Foreman grill, I wrap them in a piece of parchment paper before placing them on the grill.  The burgers come out nice and juicy and there’s no mess to clean up.  I just discard the parchment paper when I’m finished cooking, and wipe off the grill surfaces with a piece of damp paper towel, and it’s like new.  This tip will preserve the non-stick coating on the grill surfaces and you won’t have to scrape off any leftover crud and ruin the finish.  You can buy parchment paper at some supermarkets or from Amazon.  It’s very similar to wax paper but will not burn in the grill, so it is safe to use.

Penny,

As far as the Foreman goes, I don’t have that answer. I have a small foreman that the plates are not removeable. I suspect similar to the one you have. I do love it but like you it is getting harder and harder to clean.

When it comes to the grill…

I have done it two times before the grill was taken to the weekend spot and there I don’t do the cooking.

That grill was an electric infrared grill. It was very easy to use.  In fact I was home alone, called the hardware store we purchased it from and asked where to set the dial for the temp and off I went. 

That weekend I grilled myself kabobs and chicken. 

Since then I have purchased a grill right thermometer that is app controlled but I didn’t have very good luck with the app so that was not much help. 

I am still on the hunt for a grill or even just a cooking thermometer that talks and I can get the readings from with out a menue structure.

Question #1 

I want a grill like the George forman, but I can’t get the bigger wider model in Canada. So I know there are other brands and I want the grill plates to be removeable for easy washing and the grill that has an angle so that the grease runs off food into the grease collector.

I have used a George Forman for 10 years, loved it. But the finish is waring and I have to scrub it clean, it doesn’t have removeable plates. Does anyone own another grill like the George forman? I can easily cook three to four steaks in what I have so I can only get the smaller version of the George foreman in Canada.

Now Barbecues, does anyone use them and can you tell us what features makes it safer for blind people to use the outdoor barbecue?

I’ve heard that blind people can cook on them, but I’ve wanted to ask people who are into cooking, how do you do it, what kind of a barbecue is best, or does it matter?
