It's yours for the cost of shipping: a George Foreman Grill
Mr. Pcat and I don't like the one his Mom gave us for some holiday so we're looking to get rid of it.

First person to pm me who wants to pay for the shipping gets it. It's this one:


It's been used twice. We both feel that our stove-top grill, the broiler and the outdoor grill do a better job and without steaming.

1. i saw one at a garage sale for 5 bucks
one of those huge ones...i was thinking to myself....should i get it?
then some nice lady stepped up and purchased it in about 10 seconds...my hat was spinning on my head as she walked away smiling...
i guess it's just a space concern...

2. Somebody will snap it up
Those are great for people who aren't fancy cooks, who live on hamburgers and chicken breasts and don't want any fuss at all when they get home from work, tired and hungry. Just slap a burger or oiled chicken breast into it and walk away for the required time, come back when it's done, throw it into a burger bun with whatever condiments, open a pack of chips and start to chomp.

There are times that sounds attractive even to a food fussbudget like me, especially in summer.

Gadgets are a space consideration for me. I have 48 inches of counter space. If it doesn't slice, dice, mix, cook, and do a nifty tap dance, I don't have room for it.

(I do love the red, though)

3. You just described my toaster oven, Warpy.
That's what we use the TO for in the summers - 2 boca patties inside, two buns on the top (take advantage of the waste heat) and buy fruit salad at whole foods on the way home. And this week has been a lot of bocas.... it's in the 90s here and I may have grown up in the Mojave desert, but there's a reason I live here now....

I loved the red... it looked like hell in my blue and cream kitchen, but I loved it. It was pretty. I just didn't like the taste.

That is all.
