Best Review on George Foreman GR1212 Jumbo Size Electric
I got this grill about 3 years ago. I LOVE it!! We have a large family, so the size is ideal. I have grilled pork tenderloin, steak, burgers, chicken, and even a roast! I have many times put frozen prok chops on there and they cook evenly and are never dry, a little garlic salt, black pepper-delish!!! All food comes out just delicious! I am not normally a fan of hot dogs-but they are SO good when thay are cooked on the Grorge Foreman!
It is very easy to clean, so it's never been an issue that the plates are not removeable.
Like I said, we've had it for about 3 yrs now, and use it prob twice a week. I'm now noticing that the non-stick coating is starting to come off-scratched looking. I think that's pretty good for the use we got out of it. I'm now shopping all the newer GF grills, but I really think I'm leaning toward buying this same one again. This one seems to be the biggest.
BalasHapusI put off buying a George Foreman grill because in my area, the local stores are pretty high in price. My brother owns a smaller George Foreman grill and swears by its cooking times,flavor of food when it comes out. So finding a deal on one here i bought it. I have used it a few times so far. It heats up in 4 to 5 minutes.It will cook a fairly thick steak or angus beef patty in 7 to 8 minutes. The grease tray catches all the grease. The meat cooks clear through. Just spray alittle non stick spray on both plates, preheat,and its ready in no time .The grill is easy to clean even though the plates can not be removed. A dish cloth and hot water is all thats needed. I am very happy with this grill.
BalasHapusJust bought this grill a week ago. Have grilled fish fillets, sausage, burgers, tenderloin steak and veggies. This is my first indoor grill and to me it is amazing. Steaks and burgers are juicy but not greasy. Cook times are real quick so be prepared to pull items off sooner than the guide suggests. Clean-up is easy and the size of this grill allows cooking for a family of four. I would highly recommend this grill. Would probably not waste my money on the smaller ones unless I was only cooking for one. With this grill I look forward to the winter and still enjoying the succulent flavours of grilled meats and veggies.
BalasHapusWe love,love this product. We actually are using this grill about 4 times a week because it is so simple and delicious.I really could go on and on about this. You will love it!

I really like my grill. The size is perfect for what I use it for. I can cook enough for the 4 of us at one time.
BalasHapusThe removable trays are not the way to go if you want grill marks, fast cooking and searing.
BalasHapusI just returned my George Foreman 360 Grill and replaced it with the 144 sq inch Family Size Grill. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! The steaks and vegetables came out perfect. It was fast, with grill marks and cooked in the time according to the chart included in the booklet. The 360 just steamed everything and took twice as long to cook as what the directions claimed.
I believe the removable plates are not making a good enough contact to the heating element and that's why it can't get hot enough to cook the food as advertised. The top plate is loose and wobbly and not snug enough to the heating element. Also, you have two surfaces to heat instead of one (the removable plate, and the top of the unit that has the heating element).
I read all the reviews on the 360 and thought that it was definitely the way to go until I tried it. It might be great for grilled cheese and quesadillas, etc., but for a real grill-type grill, the removable plates ARE NOT THE WAY TO GO! NON-removable plates get the job done.
If you read the reviews, read the ones that have the information according to what you want to cook. If all you want are sandwiches, read those reviews. If you want it for grilling meat and vegetables, read those reviews.
I wish the Family Grill were take apart like the 360, but you can't have everything.
I found the best way to clean it, is to take wet paper towels and place it on the grill as soon as you're done cooking. When it cools enough to handle you can use the little spatula that came with it on the paper towel to loosen any cooked on food, then wipe off as much as you can. Another clean damp paper towel will finish the job.
A few years ago I purchased a different brand with removable grills and had the same problem. I finally gave it away.
This has become a device we can not live without. It is great.
