Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of George Foreman GGR50B Indoor/Outdoor GrillCustomer Review: I can't say enough - great product! Summary: 5 Stars
Where do I begin? I jumped on the George Foreman grill train about 1 year ago with this grill and I will never get off. It works like magic. I turn it on about 5-8 minutes before I am ready to put the food on it and it never burns or cooks anything unevenly. I have taken the grill tub into my kitchen in inclement weather and the house did not catch on fire or smell like smoke for a week. Indoors or out, this is a great grill. My husband is the typical 'man of the grill' and at first he didn't even want to go near it because it "plugged in and wasn't a real grill." Now I can't get him away from it. HA!
Here's a fabulous grill tip: grill corn in the husk for 20-25 minutes (until you see the outline of the kernels, a bit black) and remove the husks with paper towels and all the silk comes off perfectly. The corn tastes smoky. YUM! I did this on my GF grill and it came out perfectly. Enjoy!

Since I ordered one originally for my parents, I have also already ordered 2 more; one for my sister and one for me :). These cook all meats in very little time with no propane worries. Yes, it can be messy to clean up unremoveable grill plate, but the taste is worth it. Luckily, I ordered mine online through walmart and had free site to store shipping. I just had to pickup at walmart. The price was only $65.00 but I have noticed even walmart price went up to compete with the amazon website price. I have cooked hamburgers, steak and chicken on my grill. All marinated meats have a much better taste, as would any prepared meats. Haven't tried veggies on it yet, but that is next. I find this grill is very light weight, with only 4 pieces to snap into place, no tools needed! I just can't say enough good things about it. Making my mouth water now just tasting my next steaks! Get yours today.
Customer Review: Grill Alternative Summary: 5 Stars
I owned the george foreman champ grill and it works great. I wanted to bbq this summer and didn't want to fuss with the propane or charcoal. I'm glad I went with the george foreman indoor/outdoor grill. It heats up and cooks up quickly. I made steak fajitas last night which took 10-15 prior to prep work, also grilled tortillas which came out "perfect" with melted cheese. The grill top comes off for easy cleaning with a drip pan that comes out so you can discard drippings and wash off. The dome top is heavy and not some dinky thing. The only thing I wished was different was the length of the cord but that's easily fixed with purchaisng a heavy duty extension cord. I suggest getting the vegetable accessory holder -- since the onions were a bit small to grab last night. For the price, efficiency/convenience, and taste -- you can't get any better! I'm even taking it camping with me!
Customer Review: Don't waste your money!!! Summary: 1 Stars
I can only figure that the reviews on this grill were written by George himself. Or somebody that works for thr company. The grill does heat up fast and abide by most condo law, but the good points stop there. The grill does not drain very well. Most food is boiled or fried in it's own grease unless you tilt the grill in numerous directions while cooking. Not recommended! Grilled food is not bad, but in no way compares to taste of gas or charcoal grill. Cleanup is not as easy as expected unless you hose it off in the yard with a high pressure nozzle. Grill surface is too large to fit in most sinks for cleaning. Nonstick coating is pretty good at not sticking to grill surface. After a few months of use it will start to come off while cleaning. I'm back to violating my condo bylaws. It's worth being a condo criminal to have a real grill instead of an expensive hotplate.
Customer Review: Best purchase I've made in awhile! Summary: 5 Stars
I've been wanting to buy a George Foreman grill for a few years now. I'm so glad I waited & discovered this model instead of settling for the smaller indoor only one. I was estatic when it came in the mail & couldn't wait to use it that first night. I'm happy to say, this grill DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Took all of 5-10 minutes to assemble & start grilling. It comes with 2 plastic utensils that are safe for the non-stick surface. The lid keeps the meat tender & juicy. It has a fairly large cooking surface, so I was able to cook for 4-5 people, yet the compact design doesn't take up much room on my balcony. On top of all this, it's such a breeze to clean. I just detach the grill from the base & give it a quick rinse in my sink. So far I've grilled steaks, chicken, veggies...everything turned out delicious! I still can't believe I only paid $50 for it.
