“New results of independent testing show that the George Foreman Grill removes up to 42% of fat from quarter-pound burgers made with 80/20 ground chuck beef, translating to a reduction of approximately 89 calories per burger!”
I was super excited when I was sent the George Foreman Next Grilleration GRP4 Removable Plate Grill. “A spacious yet sleek 72" grill that offers easy clean up grilling for the whole family”. I of course decided to make burgers that night for dinner on my new grill. I like that it is large enough to fit 4 burgers on at a time. But I did find that the burgers cooked better when I just did 2 at a time. Also, the ready light comes on at about 7 minutes but I felt like it wasn’t quite hot enough at that point. I recommend letting it heat up or at least 15 minutes before starting your burgers.
While cooking my burgers I enjoyed seeing all the grease run off the grill and into the tray, and I really like that the grease only goes into the tray not down the back or sides. It really is great to know that you are eliminating that much fat from what you are eating! If you are looking for a way to make a low fat burger look no further.
My absolute favorite part of this grill is that the plates are removable. We 
have had other George Foreman grills in the past and I have had such a hard time cleaning them (trying not to get the base wet). So being able to remove the plates was great. I can quickly and easily hand wash them, or even throw them in the dish washer! I am really happy with our new grill and I can’t wait to cook even more on it in the months to come!
