We call it "the Foreman," but I suppose most people would call it a George Foreman grill. Acutually for the past several days I've been calling the $*^#^%&^!@$ Foreman b/c my husband decided to use it for some chicken that he had marinated in some gooey substance but then found he was out of propane and couldn't cook it outside. I spent three days trying to moisten the crud and scrape it off the damn thing. Yes, I know that they have newer models that one can put in the dishwasher, but ours isn't one of those.
