I bought this large George Foreman Contact Roaster (it's not a grill) because I have the smaller size and just love it. The smaller unit obviously has size limitations that the GV12 overcomes. I've cooked a large batch of spareribs in the new oven and they were wonderful. I'm looking forward to doing a 12-lb. turkey very soon. Two features I really like are the hole in the bottom that allows fat to drain off and the insulated body that keeps heat in the unit, not in your kitchen (important in Florida!). The only reason I didn't give it an "excellent" rating is that Foreman's nonstick coating is not perfect. It can bubble up on the edges (if meat sticks to it and has to be scraped off). I solved this in the small unit by lining it with aluminum foil and poking a hole for the drain. Cleanup is very easy if you place some wet paper towels inside the unplugged unit and let it sit for a while. I use a wooden chopstick to clean the drain hole. Very happy with my GV12 Contact Roaster.Read full review
The George Foreman GV12 is the most amazing kitchen appliance in the world. I cannot imagine why Salton quit making them. Just like the smaller version the GV5, there is absolutely nothing better for a quick meal without heating up the entire house with a traditional oven. For small meals or vegetables it is the bomb. I've never cooked anything in the GV5 that didn't come out moist, juicy and browned to perfection. I only wish the GV12 were more readily available. The one I purchased on ebay was damaged during delivery, I thought I was going to sit down and cry. I wanted it so bad!
Makes 4 of this size I have bought and used. Does the best job cooking and there's nothing easier to use. Cooks through and through without any checking on to see how it's coming along. Just learn how long to set the timer on the item being cooked and that's it.
Doesn't have a temp adjustment, burns food, Doesn't cook even ..big & bulky..I do not recommend this product definitely disappointed in this george foreman product.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I use it all the time. Never cook roasts in my oven. Perfect size. Cooks roasts quicker then an oven. Never over cooks. Meat comes out moist. Super easy to clean.
