if i cook 80% or 85% lean ground beef on the george foreman grill, does it take out enough of the fat to make it like eating 90+% lean ground beef?

Hard to say without measuring. I use lean beef and see a good amount of fat in the tray afterwards. It all depends on how long you cook it and how much you press it down.

yea, sort of, but i just don't like using napkins to clean my pots and pans you know? i would rather have soap and make sure its clean.
also i made some burgers on there the time i used it, and i was sorely disappointed. some people love it, i rather use a real grill.
but what can you say, its sold like 100 million of them so i guess im in the minority

The 'fat' that comes off will also be blood and water and stuff...
Write to Allan Borushek and tell him to updtae the calorie counter to include foreman cooked meals.
I thin it'd be pretty hard to beat boiling it.. and then skimming off the fat that rises..
Anyway, I cant find the good ol' fatty stuff anywhere- I just bought 90% lean and have to add olive oil to get it up to scracth-

As far as the Foreman goes, I'm usually in the kitchen preparing the rest of my meal while the Foreman is going. I don't like my meat burnt on the outside so I unplug it once it is going full blast and will plug it in as it dies down some. I repeat the process until my meat is done, but since I'm in the kitchen already, it's no hassle. Not only does this make your meat much more juicy, it also makes the Foreman easier to clean. As for cleaning with the paper towel, that is not necessary. I prop mine up on the side of the sink, get the head of a scrub brush wet and go to town. I spray the Foreman off when I'm done and wipe it down with a dish towel. It is no more harder to clean by hand than a regular pan.
