Thanks ya'll...IT WAS A HIT!! I came in the kitchen and the college boy was cooking burgers for he and his honey...he didn't SEE the four chicken breasts I had been marinating all afternoon...They were fab...but you guys are right...it cooks quick...seconds meant the difference between done and BURNED...(oops)...I'm copying and pasting your ideas and posting inside a cabinet so I can get to them quick...THANKS AGAIN!! My grills don't come out...but I just leaned it over the sink and using the little scraper tool...scraped the mess into the sink then wiped out with paper towels.

I too think the GF is a "classic"! GF: paninis, chicken breast, turkey burgers, teriyaki skewers, french toast, grilled zucchini, you can even cook an egg on the GF by tilting it up...endless possibilities Blender: smoothies with every kind of fruit and yogurt are a yummy healthy breakfast (add spinach to a blueberry smoothie, they will never know) Crockpot: do you know you can slow cook a meatloaf in a crockpot? Stews, soups, casseroles, baked potatoes Rice cooker: add lentils to the rice and cook, add edamame too. BBQ: pizza and everything you would normally BBQ! Fondue pot: bring back the fondue--my kids love this cheesey goop! Toaster: turned on it's side and lined with aluminum can heat a slice of pizza Breakfast for dinner using an electric skillet: pancakes, sausages.

I think in every kitchen there is grease depositing on the surfaces, but, hopefully, slowly and in tiny amounts. We have a panini grill...Not George Foreman, but similar. I try to use ours close to our hood vent and let it help out with the steam, etc.

I can't imagine cob corn in a Foreman short of slicing them into halves or even fourths, unless you cut them into little disks which, eh. Seems like it'd take forever with dubious results trying to do it whole. I've thought a few times about a Foreman and nearly bought one with the removable plates that was on clearance but really couldn't justify it. Between an electric frypan the Nesco and the glass bowl convection oven, I'm not sure that it can do much for me in addition to what I have except 2 sided frying for burgers and such and actually the convection does almost the same. Plus I hear such mixed results with users. Guess it's a love it or don't even want it appliance. My biggest problem is the grease dripping into the tray. Not sure I'd want to deal with that.
