George Foreman - Indoor grills

Hello

I've done a fair amount or 'Googling' for recipes for the G.
Foreman and indoor grill recipes. I haven't found a great site.
Just sites with a few recipes here and there.

There's a yahoo group that I hear is a great place to ask questions:

Thanks serene.

I appreciate your help but I'm not a Yahoo Groups person.
I'm more usenet or web sites.

Have a wonderful New Year and thanks again.

I really (first of all) need a time table for cooking various
foods. I didn't get one with grill becuase it was a 'hand me down'
grill.

And some good recipes to try.

Thank you for taking the time to help me & any information you can
share.

Happy New Year to all

I use a Foreman-type Grill all the time made by Hamilton beach. :-)
I use it so often, it stays out and has a place of honor on the counter
next to the stove.
`
I use it mostly for meat, but also for stuffed mushrooms, eggrolls,
cheese sticks, and sometimes sliced squash.

I'd be happy to help you with suggestions, but a usual rule of thumb is
about 1/2 the skillet time.

Cheers!

Mine too. :-)

But I've done so much over/under cooking...
I need help! LOL

Do you have a web site with recipes or any favorite recipes you
might like to share or tips, tricks?

I'm a "burning" beginner or you could say a "raw" newbie.
I've only had the 'hand me down' a short while and can't quite get
the hang of it. But your tip will help!

Thank you and Happy New Year!

I belong to two Yahoo groups (I'm not a Yahoo Groups person either). But I
wanted to get specific help when I bought a foodsaver and a vita-mix. These
are no nonsense groups. I hope you re-consider.

I did a Yahoo search because I find it's more effective than Google in most
cases.

Among the other results for "george foreman cooking chart", this page looks
useful. (Note that it hangs the browser for a bit to load the background
MIDI file if the system's soundcard is the "patch-caching" type and has to
load sounds from disk into memory, but that's normal behavior for any page
using background MIDI with that type of soundcard).

Just a couple of tips.

1. The instructions which came with my Foreman grill didn't satisfy me, so
I bought a book called "Indoor Grilling", by Better Homes and Gardens. It's
great and very helpful. I bought it on half.com, which is part of eBay, at
a very good price. (I use half.com a lot.)

2. To simplify the cleaning job:
As soon as you have finished grilling (and while the grill is still hot)
place a couple of soaking wet paper towels flat on the surface (cover the
whole surface) and close the lid. By the time you've finished dinner all
the crusty stuff will be soft and able to be cleaned off with more paper
towels.

I'm gonna check out Half.com (new to me) & look for recipe book.
Thanks, also, for the cleaning tip. :-)

Experimentation... <G>

Err on the side of caution.
You can always cook stuff MORE, but once you have overcooked, it's
ruined!

I like my beef rare, so I only cook burgers for 3 to 5 minutes depending
on how large they are.

Chicken breasts, 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how THICK they are.

Buffalo wings cannot really be over cooked.
I cook them thawed for 6 to 7 minutes, frozen for 10 to 12 minutes.

Fish? Watch that! It's REALLY easy to overcook!

Mushrooms and other veggies, 1/4" thick, about 8 to 10 minutes.

The grill cooks hot and fast!

Care care care!
it's better to undercook and add a minute or two than to ruin by burning.

How do you do the stuffed mushrooms? Do you not lower the lid? It
sounds good, I have some stuffed shrooms I want to make tonight and I
might use the grill.

Oh yes I close the lid! :-)
That's why it works so well. The tops get crispy and it's a hecuva lot
easier than starting up the oven.

Here are grilled portabellos:

I did those for 10 minutes. Regular white mushrooms are good at 6 to 8
depending on their size:

I am really sold on electric indoor grills!
Saves electricity and effort.
