Hey Gatekeeper,

I heard the Foreman grill is the bomb.

How long does it take to cook up the meat on that thing?

Ted:

I'm not sure, since I haven't opened it up yet. From what I've been told, though, you can cook a nice big burger in five minutes or less ... and watch the fat drip away.

One of the local burger joints I go to now and then uses a grill that's like the George Foreman grill. According to the proprietor, it means a 1/3-lb. burger contains only 12 grams of fat ...

That's about 8% fat...what percentage is he starting with?

my blood pressure is so low I should be dead.

And I eat plenty of salt.

I don't think salt causes high blood pressure. I think it is stress and genetic history.

If you were serious...
You remind me of 100 kg stupid Finnish drunk 40-year old men.

That logic is so ingenius.

TMM:

I have no idea what percentage he's starting out with. All I know is that 12 grams of fat in a 1/3-pound burger with mustard and ketchup on it isn't bad at all compared to burgers at McDonald's and Burger King, which range from the high teens to mid-60s for fat content (a Double Whopper with cheese has 65 grams of fat alone).

My heart's going to burst just thinking about it.

Gatekeeper,

Do you know if you can cook the meat from a frozen state in that grill? That's my big thing, I have to be able to heat it up from a frozen state without thawing it first.

George Foreman came up with the best invention ever!!

I'm just using this space to show my appreciation for the GF grill. . Speaking of, I think I'll cook up a chicken breast or a burger later on. With my hot and spicey pickles really kicks ass.

A freakin' bun-length hotdog has %25 of the RDV of fat for a person needing 2000 calories a day. Toss in a little chili and some cheddar and you're good for the day. But I love my chili-cheese dogs. Gues I have to cut down to one instead of two (let alone three).

I hope so. I do it all the time You might lose some flavour- but I'm not sure. I'm not a flavour expert. The most flavour will probably come from using meat that was never frozen. Just buy it fresh and throw it on the grill.

Everyone loves it. Wish I had one, but first an electric griddle for making pancakes and a pasta maker.
