hotcheme Posted October 14 Report Share Posted October 14 i like it - it is easy to use and clean but it's whole purpose is to drain the fat from your food and that is the tastiest part of cooking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tilly Posted October 14 Report Share Posted October 14 Originally posted by hotcheme wow that is pretty cool - i can't believe i gave cooking advice - i haven't actually prepared food for myself in a year or so... well i was already going to make myself some chicken over salad for lunch/dinner and this thread triggered the grill...i'm really on an all out weightloss push right now so it fit. i mean for taste..although not terrible..it's not exactly an ideal eat to impress a date or anything but for JUST a meal if you are being conscious of fat then it's all good!BUT if i'm going to spend some loot on a filet or something like that I wouldnt feel confident using this!

trueqwest Posted October 14 Report Share Posted October 14 Food is good, but only when freshly prepared with spices. Afterwards, because of the lack of fat, it dries up something harsh. It really makes you get ingenius with spices. Definitely Emeril for beef/chicken, or go to Garden of Eden and try Bobby Flay spices. Be sure to marinate for at least an hour.Have you tried a sandwich on the grill? I've experimented with a few ingredients like french fries, thousand island dressing, turkey breast, and I get some great stuff. Almost as good as a Zam's/Tost's sandwich.All in all, you're not going to necessarily get a gourmet dinner off it, but is that why you bought it in the first place? No, it's purpose is convenience and to cut the fat. Definitely get one- Macy's, large family sized for $89.99:aright: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are beautiful the way you are, ask any of your friends. If you want to cut down the cigs, cheese, pasta, and stuff for health reasons thats ok. I am gald you are happy and wanting to keep in good health. Way to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elementx Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 My 2 Cents...I love the grill... Yes you have to marinate... Cause it takes some flavor away... But I am a ketchup freak so I I can deal with it... With my schedule the way it is and with my diet... The grill is great. It takes such a short time to cook my chicken and run out the door.. Without the MESS !!!Keep it... Even if you use it once a week it is worth the few bucks that it costs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
