I have the large size GF and I love it. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are melt in your mouth. Easy clean up too. I wouldn't give it away for any money. Enjoy

Sorry, not to have gotten back here sooner. Yes, parchment is a baking paper, that's usually available in all grocery stores. You'll find it either on the baking aisle, or near the wraps. I prefer the brand in the brown and green box--it's natural, the paper is brown, rather than the 'name' brand that's white. The natural parchment is usually cheaper than the other brand, as well. You can also pick up a roll of it in most housewares stores like kitchen Kapers. If you use parchment for grilling, it's one-use only. However, if you use it to line your cookie sheets or bread pans, you can often get several uses out of a sheet. Just shake off the crumbs, and store with your cookie sheets. Once it's messy, however, I toss it--it's cheap enough. I also use parchment under my pizza when I'm reheating it. And just recently, I had a slice of bread from a leftover sandwich that I wanted to warm up--but it had a little 'goo' on it from the meat. So I folded a piece of parchment around it and slipped into the toaster. Worked great and no--it didn't catch on fire (I stood and watched it the entire time the toast was down, just to be on the safe side) Now, understand, I've only done these experiments with the brown parchment paper. Don't know if different brands might work better or worse (or might catch fire in the toaster).

"George" as we fondly call our very large grill with its own stand, sits proudly in our kitchen. We have had "him" for several years and I bought it at Costco. We have definately gotten our money's worth out of it. For once a month cooking or bi-weekly, I buy larger quantities of bnls/sknls chicken and precook and slice like others do and keep in the freezer. Really speeds up last minute meals. Just wait and put the bbq sauce on the last 5 minutes or so. One thing we like to do that I have not seen mentioned on this thread, we cook french toast on our grill. Yum! and it makes enough to feed everyone and it is quick with the cooking on both sides. A comment about a previous post, all the juice that makes it in the drip pan is NOT grease. Much of it is actually water that has been added (probably to increase the weight) I buy the skinless breast and still get tons of water. It is just flavored water that is injected into the meat to make it juicier and more flavorful (and weigh more).

I always think that something built in like that that can break is something you have to fix at some point. And how is the venting on those units? I hate greasy smoke, so that would be a minus. I have something similar to a foreman that I use constantly -- the Cuisinart Griddler. It's something to consider in the middle. It is expensive though, I think around $110? $120? I honestly don't remember. I bought it years ago. But it has lasted longer than any grill I have ever used, and I use it more than most people use their grills, I think. Almost daily for something. Grilling muffins or naan or reheating tortillas or even a frozen burrito or something. Comes with 2 removable sets of grill plates - 1 flat, 1 ridged, comes with a tool to clean them. They go in the dishwasher. The coating is perfect after 3 years of daily use. I wouldn't buy any grill without removable plates. They stink after just a few uses! You can even open it out flat and cook eggs or pancakes and things on it if you need to. And the lid hinge swings free, ensuring that the lid presses flat down on everything, not pinches it at an angle, like a pair of scissors. I used it almost exclusively during my renovation, as my microwave tended to blow the circuits. It can get very hot (you can control the temperature, warm to very hot). And it caramelizes without burning (unless I'm very careless). True, it's not a substitute for a gas grill, but neither is the electric. But if the foreman has these features, or the features that you care about, and it's cheaper, then go with that!
