Features - Great for grilling burgers, fish, vegetables - Includes dishwasher-safe plastic drip tray and spatula - Also includes bun warmer - Patented grill grooves let oil run off while food is cooking - Interior wipes clean easily Product Description By cooking foods from the top as well as from the bottom simultaneously, maximum moisture and flavor is retained. The one thing that is not retained is the fat, which runs out along channels in the slightly slanted grill to a dishwasher safe drip-tray out front. The grill marks provide caramelized flavor and an appealing apperance for steaks, chicken breasts, seafood, veggies and more. While your food is cooking you can also warm up buns, tortillas, rolls and other bread items on top. After the party's over simply scrape with the plastic spatula and wipe clean with a paper towel or sponge. This model is an ideal size for cooking food for one or two people. Amazon.com Review Topped by a bun warmer with a transparent lid in bright blue, this Champ is a variant of the popular George Foreman Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine. The electric appliance's appeal lies in its simplicity and countertop convenience--not to mention its fat-fighting ability. The double-sided grill (a 6-by-7-inch nonstick cooking surface) cooks burgers, steaks, chicken, sausage, fish, shrimp, and vegetables top and bottom in minutes. (Recipes accompany the grill.) Grill marks not only look appetizing they contribute caramelized flavor. The bottom grill's deep grooves collect fat, and the grill is sloped so the fat runs off into a dishwasher-safe plastic tray stationed under the unit's front. The nonstick bun warmer draws heat from the grill and can be used while food is grilling or by itself. (The entire unit, grill and bun warmer, turns on by plugging in the power cord.) The warmer heats a burger's bun as well as other bread items, including English muffins, tortillas, pita bread, sliced bagels, and croissants. Because the grill is nonstick, cleanup is a snap: just a quick scrape with a plastic spatula (included) and a quick wipe with a paper towel or a sponge. --Fred Brack Customer Reviews Get one NOW! Date: 2001-02-04 | Rating: 5 I bought mine recently and LOVE it! I'm a single person who normally eats out of the microwave and get impatient when it takes more than 5 minutes for some dishes. But I do love to cook but ran out of time with my job nowadays and this does the perfect job of allowing me to cook quickly and clean up just as quickly. I'm very happy with mine! Of note, some people are bothered by the small size. It's just me so it's perfect and possibly perfect for 2 people. Get a bigger size if you cook for a lot of people. Attention Singles! Date: 2001-09-04 | Rating: 5 This little appliance is the greatest invention since the toaster! I received one for my 45th birthday. I was VERY skeptical. Oh gosh, "another appliance to stick in the cabinet." It sat on the counter and I stared at it for three weeks. Then I tried it. I now use it, at minimum, 4-5 times a week. It cooks any type of meat or poultry in 8-12 minutes; fish takes even less time. Chicken breasts, steaks, sliced pork loin, sausage patties, hamburgs, sliced veggies, salmon steaks -- you name it. Everything cooks to perfection. I don't understand the other reviewers who have said the meat is undercooked on the inside and black on the outside. Can't they read the timing chart in the Instruction Book? One tip: don't try to cook anything TOO thick: 1-2" works best. It's great with marinated meats and poultry. And try "rubs" as well. Barbeque sauce is okay, but a bit of a clean-up. However, cleaning this machine is a snap. Use a dry paper towel first, then a wet sponge (no soap!) -- keep the drip pan in place, then another paper towel. Takes about 3 mins. When you pre-heat it again for the next use, it's going to kill off any germs/bacteria that might remain. It gets easier to clean the more you use it. No, it doesn't make stuff taste like it came off a charcoal grill outside. But the meat has a great flavor, stays juicy, and no oven to bother with (not to mention pans). For a single person, this appliance is a must! I can cook a really healthy meal now in less than 15 mins. A must for any kitchen Date: 2001-03-23 | Rating: 5 This little grill will fit a NY strip steak and make it medium rear in seven minutes (three minutes preheating and four minutes of actual grilling). Steaks come out perfect with no mess or smoke. If you want another steak, just wipe the surface with the paper towel. In four minutes you will have another juicy steak. You can also fit two small hamburgers, but the bun warmer will take only one bun, so you are better off with one jumbo hamburger. The only thing that is missing is a timer. I use Pyrex digital probe thermometer (also offered on Amazon) to monitor temperature inside the meet and I always get a perfect steak or hamburger. I stick the probe inside the steak and place readout on the table in front of me, hamburger is done when the temperature reaches 160F. For medium steak it is 180F. Of course, this is not the same as grilling on the open fire grill but for quick and tasty meal I can't find anything better. You can also grill fish, chicken, bacon, and vegetables with great results.

Date: 2002-08-25 | Rating: 5 In terms of taste and convenience, I have to give this item 5 stars - - It cooks quickly and evenly and the food comes out immersed in flavor - - I happen to be a master at either over or undercooking almost anything I make... not a single thing I cooked came out burnt or raw in the middle. - - and get this - - we cooked a delicious chicken breast (with the bone) using nothing more than a bit of salt and pepper... and it came out just perfect... nice, juicy and flavorful - - and the whole meal took less than 5 minutes to cook - - and even less to clean up... ... the non-stick surface let's you wipe the schmaltz away in seconds, and before you know it you can store it away... Another amazing point is that its smoke free - - though I love the smell of roasted garlic and fried onions, it was nice for to be able to make them without smelling or smoking up the house.Only two things you should be aware of - - first I happen to a professional Jazz organist, and the grill (especially the lid part) seemed like something that might be too easy to get burned on, especially when you're using that spatula it comes with(Grilled chicken yes - - grilled hand - - no no - - bad one's next gig or boxing match !) and the other thing is that it doesn't have an on/off switch. It heats up almost instantly when you plug it in... I'd hate to find out what would happen though if you forgot to take the plug out - - so you definitely need to remind yourself to pull the plug when you're finished ! - - For this reason I was tempted to give it only 4 stars... but then I remembered that delicious perfectly cooked chicken in only 5 minutes... and the fact that the grill actually cost around the same price as dinner for two at Bennigan's, yet hopefully will last for years to come... so I relented. - - This *is* a great product... (*note - - size is ideal for a bachelor pad, or couple without children... it holds about two patties - - so if you have a larger family go for a bigger size.) |
