George Foreman Grill - Family Size GR26CB  — 

ANYONE can cook with the George Foreman grill.  You could be the busiest person in the world, but you could still find time too cook dinner with this product.  What would normally take you an hour to bake in the oven, you can grill in about ten minutes!

How does it cook that fast?  Well, I suppose it's because you have heat cooking both sides of the meat at the same time.  Because of this, you have to be careful to watch your food because it will overcook and dry out much faster than it normally would.

I've found that the best thing to cook on the George Foreman grill is chicken.  It seems to cook the most evenly, and maintains a lot of flavor.  Another good meat to grill on this is sausage.  You get the grill marks just like you would on the outdoor grill, but you don't have to consume all the fat that you would otherwise. 

You see, the George Foreman grill is built on a slant.  This allows for all fat and grease to just roll right off the grill.  The grill comes with a plastic bin that you place directly under the area where grease exits.  Wait till you see the amount of grease that comes out of the food!  Disgusting!  Using the George Foreman grill makes me feel confident that  I'm feeding my family a lot healthier food.  The proof is right there for you to see!

You can cook, not only meat, but vegetables too.  I often grill up onions and peppers to go with sausage.  That's everything you need for your meal right there on the grill.  I'm not dirtying up a lot of dishes in the process of cooking dirty.  When we're cleaning up, the only thing we have to wash is the grill.  It is a real time saver of nights when we have a ball game, or lots of homework.

The Family size is definately the grill I would recommend.  This thing is HUGE.   It costs a little more than the smaller ones, but if you have an entire family to feed, no way would the small ones be big enough for you.  I can cook everything at one time, not in sessions like I would have to do with a smaller one. 

My grill also came with a built in timer,  a cookbook, and a guide that tells me exactly how long each type of meat will need to cook.  At first I didn't believe that dinner would be done in the amount of time that they said it would, but I caught on quickly and now I love it.
