griddle and grill away with george, November 26, 2004
This review is from: George Foreman GF20G Combo Grill/Griddle, Silver (Kitchen)
I am a george foreman appliance junkie, so when I discovered the new grill/griddle I did a price search, found the best price at Amazon and had it delivered. I LOVE this thing, it works super and is like having two separate appliances but with the convenience of having them together in one simple unit.
I found that I can fix sausage or smokey links on the grill at the same time I am making french toast on the griddle. With a bit of creative arrangement, I am able to get six pieces of french toast on the griddle and a whole package of smokey links or a lb of pattie sausage all the the same time. It was such a luxury to fix breakfast for three people and be able to sit down at the same time with the breakfast cooking all complete. Normally I am jumping up and down, making more sauasage or french toast during the meal, so this is a true luxury for me.
The grill/griddle comes with two separate controls, so you can have one side on high, and the other side on low or even off if you want to.
If you are familiar at all with any of the George products, then you know the basics of how the grill works..preheat..spray with olive oil or similar product and then do your grilling. Now with the griddle,you simply preheat, spray and pour your pancakes or fry your eggs. With a bit of jockying around, you will learn your grilling and griddle times and be able to get both sides prepared and finished at the same time.
The only way I prepare hamgurgs is on the George grill, so now while the hamburgs are grilling, I can take the buns, open them and grill them..just like in a restaurant.
I am 100 percent happy with the grill however if I were to list any negative things on the product, the only ones I could list would be.
1. the grill is very heavy and takes a lot of room on your counter.
2. With both sides turned on high, it pulls a low of power so make sure you have other power pulling appliances turned off or you will pop a fuse or circuit breaker.
This GEORGE is a keeper..and a excellent gift for anyone that likes to fix healthy foods.

Lean Mean Grilling Machine!, August 25, 2004
This review is from: George Foreman GF20G Combo Grill/Griddle, Silver (Kitchen)
Do you want to reduce the fat content in your diet, without sacrificing the taste of the food you are eating?
My husband received this grill as a gift for his birthday - and we now use it nearly every day. It's just so handy - and versatile - you can grill just about anything! It's great having the press grill on one side, and the plate grill on the other. You can make sausages on one side, and eggs on the other - or use your imagination to come up with other combinations - or, just use one side of the grill! A handy container catches all the excess oil which cooks out of your food, reducing your fat intake.
We now grill foods we never used to. Don't want a plain bologna and cheese sandwich for lunch? Throw it under the grill for a few minutes - and taste the difference!
The best features about this grill, are as follows:
* Watch the grease and oil from your food run off! It's the healthy way to grill.
* Non-stick surface - It's unbelievably easy to clean.
* You can turn on one side of the grill, without turning on the other. No need to waste electricity!
* Easy to lift handle - ergonomic design.
* Pancakes & Hamburgers are a dream to flip as there are no frypan sides to contend with.
* Attractive design - silver and black.
* The food just tastes so good!
This grill is quite large, so make sure you have the bench space to spare. Infact, we decided we liked the grill so much, that we have it on the bench permanently - which meant some reshuffling of other kitchen items.
We use this now more than the oven - it's a member of the family which we couldn't do without. If you love grilling foods, and want to rid some of the oil in your diet, and lower your cholestoral without taking away the taste of the food you are eating - the George Forman Combo Grill/Griddle is the way to go.
Get grilling!

Greatness in the form of a grill, August 28, 2006
This review is from: George Foreman GF20G Combo Grill/Griddle, Silver (Kitchen)
My fiance and I received this as a shower gift last week and the G2 made its debut this past weekend. It has exceeded all expectations. Cooked a full hot breakfast in the morning and by noon I was flipping patty melts. Cleanup was not too bad. Just let it cool off and wiped it with some paper towels and soapy water. I highly suggest that every human run out and buy this item. This weekend the G2 will be travelling to the football game to be introduced to some tailgating.
