OMG I have been using my Foreman for a few years now, and always dreaded cleaning it. So tonight I tried the three wet paper towels after I used it, and it worked G-R-E-A-T!!!! I will definately remember this tip!

Never spray Pam or the like on non-stick surfaces. It is against manufacturer’s recommendations and forms a micro-grunge that is super sticky, defeating the non-stick properties of the cookware entirely. If you must spray – use it directly on the food, so that the microscopic particles attach to the food and spread out, and not become one with the grill.

My favorite way to cook on the George Foreman is with Foil. I make packets and put it right on the plates. This is especially nice for fish. I’ll put slices of lemon down, then the fish on top of that, then another layer of lemon. Wrap it all up, then grill. It gets steamed in lemon juice, so lots of flavor, and cleanup? What cleanup?

Where have you been for the last several years when I needed your tip????? I closed the 3 wet paper towels into the grill after I used it this afternoon, and it cleaned up like a charm after I finished eating! I do not recommend spraying the grill with cooking oil (Pam or similar) as I tried that previously and it made it worse — I had to use my fingernails to scrape it off of the plates. Thanks for making clean-up easier.

I have found to clean my George Forman the easiest is to spray on some white vinegar while it’s still plugged in and hot and just wipe everything off with a clean sponge or dish cloth works great!!!

This works excellent for me as I do not have a scraper. Perfect if you use it 2 – 3 times a day like I do !

I don’t have a much trouble cleaning the plates as I do the area where the juices and fats run out. I’m sure I’m missing something when it comes to cleaing this area of the grill. I lay my dishrag in the grill after cooking in it. I lost the drip cup long ago. I just put the front edge over a paperplate to catch the drips.

I have a large, thick sponge that I fill with soapy water. That really makes a difference with the top plate.

I’ve been using the scraper to clean it up immediately after a meal, and it never gets everything out.

Now I can enjoy my meal when it’s still hot, instead of cleaning the grill!
