Response
It is preferable that food be defrosted before
placing on the George Foreman Grill. Make
sure that the Grill is preheated, see preheat
instructions, before placing food on the grilling
plate.
As stated in the manual, the Power Light goes
ON to indicate when the Grills elements are
heating. The Power Light goes OFF when the
proper temperature has been reached. The
thermostat will cycle ON and OFF throughout
the cooking process to maintain proper tem-
perature.
Yes. In order to protect the non-stick surface
use wooden skewers. We recommend that
you soak the skewers first in water for about
20 minutes. This will keep the skewers from
burning.
After cleaning your George Foreman Grill
according to the User Maintenance
Instructions make a paste of baking soda and
water and spread on the surface of the Grill.
Allow it to sit for a few minutes and then wipe
away with a damp sponge or cloth. 
Preheat your Grill for 8-minutes. Place the hot
dogs lengthwise on the Grill. Close the Lid and
cook for 2-1/2 minutes or until desired brown-
ing is achieved. 
Yes, self-browning hash browns can be pre-
pared by preheating the Grill for 8 minutes.
Add hash browns onto the Grill surface, close
the Lid, and cook for approximately half the
time stated on the package for oven prepara-
tion.
Yes. In fact, this is one of the biggest advan-
tages of this Grill. Very different food can be
cooked at the same time with no infusion of
flavors.
Fresh peppers can be grilled for 2-3 minutes
for skinning purposes. Grilled cheese sand-
wiches can also be cooked on your George
Foreman Grill.

George Foreman’s PowerBurger
A flavorful hamburger that we think tastes even better than its all-meat
cousin! It pays to eat meals that minimize meat. To reduce saturated fat
in a typical burger, you can cut back on the amount of meat and make up
for it with plant-based ingredients. Bread crumbs and chopped vegeta-
bles have been added in this recipe. You could also try cooked rice, other
grains or cereal. In addition, choose whole wheat buns; they typically
contain one less fat gram than regular or even reduced-calorie buns.
If you settle for nothing less than a cheeseburger, Swiss cheese 
is 1 gram lower in fat than Cheddar, American or Monterey Jack with 8
grams of fat versus 9 in each ounce of cheese. However, reduced fat
cheeses like Cheddar or Swiss contain half the fat with 4 grams per
ounce. Mustard contains 1 gram of fat per tablespoon versus a whop-
ping 11 grams of fat in a tablespoon of mayonnaise.
Top your burger in healthful style with dark, leafy green lettuce, shredded
cabbage, fresh cilantro, basil or spinach.
1/2 cup chopped vegetables such as yellow onions, 
green onions, zucchini, parsley (can be sautéed)
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
•In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine the vegetables and bread
crumbs. Add the ground beef and mix well.
•Shape the mixture into eight 4-inch wide patties.
•Preheat the Grilling Machine for 8 minutes. Place the patties on the
grill eight at a time. Close the Lid.
•Cook for 8 - 9 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink and the
juices run clear, turning once.
•Yield: Serves 8
This recipe is from The Healthy Gourmet (Clarkson Potter) by Cherie
Calbom.
How To Use George Foreman’s Lean Mean
Fat Reducing Grilling Machine
1. Before using the Grilling Machine for the first time, wipe the Grilling
Plates with a damp cloth to remove all dust.
2.To preheat: Close the Lid and plug cord into a 120V AC outlet. Both
Power Lights (LEDs) will illuminate indicating that the elements are
heating. Allow Grilling Machine to preheat for 8 minutes.
3. Use a pot holder to carefully open the Lid.
4. Slide the grease catching Drip Tray under the front of the unit.
5. Carefully place the items to be cooked on the bottom cooking plate.
6. Close the Lid and allow the food to cook for the desired time.
(Consult the Recipe Section at the back of this book for some sug-
gestions.) The Power Light will go on when the Lid is closed to indi-
cate that the elements are heating up to cook. Do not leave appli-
ance unattended during use!
7. After the desired amount of time, the food should be done. 
8. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet. 
CAUTION: To avoid any sparks at the outlet while disconnecting
plug, make sure the Power Lights are off (not illuminated) before 
disconnecting the plug from the outlet.
9. Use a pot holder to carefully open the Lid.
10. Remove the food using the Plastic Spatula provided. Be sure to
always use either plastic or wooden utensils so as not to scratch the
non-stick surface. Never use metal tongs, forks or knives as these
can damage the coating on the cooking plates.
11. When cool, the Drip Tray may be removed and emptied. Be sure the
liquid is cooled before removing Drip Tray.
