Anyone else use these things? They're pretty cool, just make sure you get the bigger one (which is still pretty small; the small one is about the size of a hot dog).
They're simplicity in themselves: just plug it in (it doesn't even have an an/off switch), wait five minutes until it's ready (the light will go off indicating when it's ready), and have the small tray underneath it to catch the fat once it starts cooking. And once it's cooled off after you're done, you just run a moist paper towel over it to clean it, and that's pretty much it.
Heck, the instruction book is actually pretty small, once you consider the whole thing's printed in two languages AND a bit of it are recipes. Unfortunately I hate to admit I've only tried it out for junk, as in hamburgers and hot dogs. Hamburgers I wouldn't really recommend for it because it dries them out; ok, they're *better* because the fat was dripped out, but most people like a juicy, rather than a dry burger, right? But then, you should be having veggie burgers anyway.
However, hot dogs kick ass, and as I had my very first one, I realized (never really thought about it until then) I had never had a grilled hot dog before. I've never gone back to boiling them in water since, and I probably never will again.
I need to do more with the grill though, the recipes are mostly simple; there's one for fajitas that sounds good, just need to get some fajita meat.
Anyone else?
