The George Foreman Grill, also known as the George Foreman Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine is a popular indoor grill promoted by well-known boxer, George Foreman. It is often marketed through infomercials, using the tagline "I'm so proud of it, I put my name on it", and is manufactured by Salton, Inc.It features a clamshell design with top and bottom teflon-coated heating surfaces. The meat rests upon the highest points of the teflon on a flat surface. There are large indentations that lead to a slanted surface so that liquid fat will sluice down and away from the primary grilling items. These slants in the top grill lead to the bottom grill, and in the bottom grill to the fat tray. The floating hinge allows the grill to remain in close contact with both the top and bottom of foods of various thicknesses. The George Foreman Grill is available in several different sizes and configurations, including indoor electric grills with deeper cooking surfaces to compete against similar infomercial grills like the GT Xpress. Since its introduction in 1995, over 100 million grills have been sold. George Foreman himself has made over $150 million from the sales of his grills, more money than he made during his entire boxing career. The grill is said to "knock out the fat".In 2006, the George Foreman "Next Grilleration" Health Grill was launched, aimed at the new generation of health-conscious young people, this model contains detachable plates that can be washed in the sink or dishwasher.Foreman's grill has many uses for hamburger and other meats, but also can be used as a panini grill or to cook sandwiches and quesadillas.In the UK, the George Foreman Grill is very popular amongst students due to its low cost and ease of cooking.
