    Have you ever made anything quirky in a George Foreman? If you'd like to get a mini George Foreman i've found one for a similar price here (Amazon affiliate link) amzn.to/3ulSN5y and if you enjoyed this there's more kitchen gadget videos here: th-cam.com/play/PLfItiEY3o1msZB4DJXPXdg2qKBsG3nGav.html

    Years ago I spent about 120 euros on the Tefal Optigrill XL (on sale) which basically does the same but much better. You can remove the plates to put in the dishwasher, it measures the thickness of whatever you're baking (you can select the type of food before you start) and it shows a coloured light depending on how well it's done. It works REALLY well and now half my family owns the same device because of how easy it is to use. These grills can become almost daily devices if you use them right - you only need a little oil or butter & it's done way faster than in a pan.

    • @YaaLFH
      @YaaLFH 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      My George was half the price of your Tefal, has removable dishwasher safe plate, temperature adjustment and a "grill and melt" function (floating hinge can be locked in upper position).

    • @redavatar
      @redavatar 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      @@YaaLFH Yeah but it misses the main benefit I mentioned which is why it's called the Optigrill (as in optimal) : the coloured light. You put whatever you want on it, pick the food item, close it and it will tell you when it's at the exact right level of "done". Steaks, paninis, drum sticks, fish, hamburgers, sausages, etc. It's always spot on. I can also replace the plates with waffle plates in seconds to make waffles. I've had several "dumb" grills like the Foreman in the past and I often overcooked stuff or had to cut through chicken or whatever to see if it was done enough - this eliminates the hassle.

    I have the very big Foreman that comes with the flat side, like a hotplate. I'm in the UK, and it's my most used appliance.lives on the countertop. So useful for full Scottish breakfasts. Also, pancakes are so good on the flat side, no messing about trying to get a spatula in and under in a frying pan with 'high' sides.

    Iv had 2 formans over the years, 1st was great, finally everything started to stick to it & was time for a new one. My 2nd had removable plates & was no where near as good as my original, despite being more expensive. It just didn't heat up as well. Anyway that eventually stopped working, and wasn't replaced. This video has made me want a forman all over again! More George Foreman videos please

      If the teflon coating is not physically eroded away, put salt on it and heat it up. The salt will go brown and the antiadherent will work again.
      Same for any nonstick pan. Cook some table salt on it and discard the salt.

    Bizarrely you can make the best omelettes on a Foreman. Tip it slightly back when you first pour the egg in, slap the lid down and you know it's ready just by listening from the sizzles as it rises and hits the top plate. Nice and light and fluffy. Comes off totally clean too. A Foreman, a microwave and an air fryer will cover most things in a small kitchen.

Another one is tuna and chopped boiled egg in thick white sauce in the wrap parcel.

    I may still have a George Foreman shoved in the back of a cabinet somewhere - it was my main cooking device in the early 90s lol. My sis and I got an apartment and we didn't have a microwave for a long time. All cooking things are advertised as "easy to clean", but, other than the drip tray, the GF met that expectation. I just hated dealing with that drip tray. It's not bad for cooking broccoli, cauliflower, potato slices, but I don't remember how long I did them.

    I had one until recently, used it more to make cheese toasties then any thing else. It was my grandads and my gran gave me it in a clear out, think it was about 22yrs old x

    I live in New Zealand and I love cooking my bacon in my George Foreman. That one is a lot more fancy than mine.

    I rather want a nice panini from a local cafe now (but they've closed for the day!), they do some tasty paninis with a decent side-salad, totally unrelated to the video, but the panini moment just got me thinking of them... :P

    not quite a george formby grill, but one similar. had it so long ans can't remember when I got it, and use it regularly. never done meat or eggs due to being allergic to them, but potato cakes? omg - it does the best potato cakes!!! 😁
    (fyi: whatever mashed potato you have add half that of SR flour. that's it. roll to about an inch thick and grill until golden. best eaten hot with a ton of butter)

    I remember my dad having one of those, or something very similar. It had a hotplate on the side for non-grill cooking.
    With this one, cooking the personal pizza seemed a little unhinged, but then again you and Stuart did toast a sandwich inside of another sandwich with that fancy Mico toastie maker.

    A George Foreman grill is an essential component of "Emergency Bacon". When you have a craving for a bacon sandwitch at 3am, and all the fresh bacon is gone what can you do?
    Simple! place an entire pack of frozen back bacon in the GF and cook for 20 minutes on high. The top and bottom slice get almost burnt on on side, but all the internal slices are perfectly cooked. One of these grills woth a timer on it basicly sailed me through my 20's and allowed me to cook a lot of food when drunk at 2am

    I feel like the foreman grill was the air fryer of its time. Everyone had or wanted one

    If you buy the virable heat control one you can cook the fook slower so it cooks without being under cooked

    Already excited for the 'will it George foreman?' video! Love the waffle concept! Wondered if you'd try different types of waffles? I make a few different types to make them healthy as well as fun. Super ripe bananas, spinach, oats, egg and a dash of milk makes a great batter and so does sweet potato or butternut squash (roast or steam before blending with the other ingredients), oats, egg, milk (oat milk is best because it's naturally sweet) and a dash of vanilla extract. Would really love to see you try these and put your own spin on them! My 5 year old and I both love your videos and to see you make waffles the way we do would bring us so much joy!

    From memory, and it has been a long time since i worked in stores, they don't have to sell it to you at the price on the shelf/label. There used to be this idea that if something was labelled wrong they had to sell it for that, but all prices on labels are is "offers" to sell at a price and the company can basically rescind that offer. I think it might be a thing that once made aware of it, they have to go and remove the labels/items until it's fixed, but not so sure on that. The important bit is that they don't have to sell for the cheaper price, unfortunately. However, if they do sell you something for less than it should be, you also don't have to pay the extra/return it, the only exception being if you've spoken about the price "why yes sir, that one you've picked out is only £100" and then they charge you £10.
