1. No messy splatters. The George Foreman Grill cooks from the top and bottom so there is no splattering or mess making with this one. I used to always burn bacon. With this grill, I just let it do all the work. My bacon comes out crisp, there are no splatters on my kitchen walls and the fat drains away.

2. Fat drains away. If you're trying to eat low fat, the George Foreman Grill is designed to let the fat drip away into the handy, dishwasher safe, drip tray.

3. You can cook more than burgers on it. The George Foreman Grill is fantastic for making fajitas because you can cook the meat, peppers and onions on it all at once. The meat will be tender and the vegetables won't be sopping wet or dried out. You can also use it to make Panini sandwiches and quesadillas. It is a truly versatile appliance.

4. Makes grilling in winter easy. There comes a day in the dead of winter when you just need a fresh grilled burger or steak. The George Foreman Grill lets you have your beef without having to freeze your flanks cooking it on the grill in below zero weather.

5. Easy cleanup. The George Foreman Grill cleans up easily with a paper towel and the drip tray washes easily in your dishwasher. No grills to brush and scrub, no charcoal to light, no muss, no fuss.

The thing I like the best about the George Foreman Grill is the nonstick surface. No matter what you put on the grill, it won't stick. You don't need, butter oil or spray. It's just your food, with all the flavor and no added fat.

You can buy a small George Foreman Grill for only $20 or you can get a G5 with interchangeable plates (a regular grill, a steak grill, a griddle, a waffle maker or a baking pan) for about $120. There are also several models in between those prices. Whichever model you choose, you will not be disappointed. This is a must have appliance!

Here are some recipes for great meals that you can make with a George Foreman Grill:

Provolone and Roasted Pepper Panini

Chicken Souvlaki Gyro Style

Grilled Cheese Sandwich - Italian Style
