 They did it right !!! December 18, 2006

I bought my Rocket Grill about a week ago from the TV add. I usually shop Amazon when I see something on TV that I like but this time it looked so good I just called up and did the deal on the spot. I could have saved a few bucks had I gone to ...zon first and ordered on line.
Even so I am very pleased with the item to the point I wanted to share the experience with those now thinking of buying one.
To me the best feature is that just like the other reviews, there is no clean up. I figured that was a bit too good be true and it almost is. So far, the only clean up needed was to sponge off the lid. A very slight residue of oil will settle on the inside of the lid as the heated steam from the cooking process rises and passes through. The lid is extremely easy to remove so this kind of clean up is almost negligible.
Let me tell you, I've tried a bunch of kitchen grilling systems. There are those where I would set it and forget it, infra-red convection whiz-bang thingies with huge plastic bell shaped lid, toaster ovens of different varieties and a score of others. They all have their cooking gimmicks and most do a good job of cooking as promoted. BUT THE MESS they made always ruined it. Clean up took longer than the cooking did so after a few tries, those devices were stored and not used. Eventually they would be given to a family member (heh), sold or donated.
The Rocket Grill is a keeper and I will use it regularly. Last night I made two frozen filet mignon steaks today I heated up previously cooked rotisserie chicken, made some hot dogs and a grilled ham and cheese sandwich.
Haven't needed to wash a thing. The secret is in the parchment pouches into which the food is put and within which the food is cooked. Essentially all the grease, fat, spatter, etc is retained inside the bag. Nothing but the steam gets out. No spatter, no cooked on grease, no crumbs, no kidding !!! Nuff Said ... get it !!! You'll love it.
So far, so good! January 19, 2007

My first indoor grill was a small George Foreman grill. It wasn't that bad. A year later I upgraded to a much larger Sunbeam (not this one, but a George Foreman clone). The problem with the Foreman type grill is that you have a lot to cleanup. Sure it only takes 2-3 minutes, but i'm lazy and I don't like doing it. Actually sometimes it takes way longer than that. I don't like how it cooked food. Sometimes the outside will look burnt to a crisp and the inside is still pink! I always thought someone should come up with something better.
Well, now they have (I can't wait to see how many people think I work for Sunbeam!). I saw this advertised on TV one day and it looked like a good idea, but I didn't like how you had to keep getting new bags for it. I also disliked how they didn't list the price of it on the commercial.
I did some research online and saw a video review of it and they had some good things to say about it so that sealed the deal for me. I bought it with 2nd day delivery.
I've only used the product for one day and just had to write a review of it.
The first thing I put in it was a somewhat large T-bone steak that was not frozen. I preheated the grill and had trouble getting it into the bag. The bag ripped about 1 1/2" inches. This is because it was tricky getting a large steak in the bag and it weighed a lot. I put it in for 13 minutes on the "Bone In" setting and when it came out it was near perfect. Honest. No pink for the well done setting, just the way I prefer it.
The fat was all in the bottom of the bag. I had a small little puddle of oil in the bottle of the grill, but it's easy to clean. The tray on the bottom you don't need to clean much. 95% of the fat and juices go into the bag. The tray on the bottom is less than a half inch in depth.
I tried a piece of frozen skinless/boneless chicken and when it first came out it looks undercooked, but again it was perfect. To me, chicken comes out somewhat dry on the Foreman grills, but not so on this so far. The food seems to be cooked evenly the entire way through. One side doesn't appear to be cooked more than the other.
Now the negatives. I can't see this being used as a replacement for a stove for a family. You can only cook one thing at a time with this. The bag is pretty small. I live alone in an apartment, so no big deal.
I can see this being very popular soon. Once they get the price down to fifty dollars and the bags are at every store it will possibly replace the George Foreman grill. Maybe not since the large George Foreman grills can cook enough grilled foods for an entire family. This cannot!
I don't like the idea of buying replacement bags. It seems like this is the way they'd make money off this thing. Hopefully they'll be easy to find in stores someday. I doubt i'll be going through my 46 bags in one month. It's not really that big of a deal AT ALL.
The price isn't that good yet. It's a new product, so it will be cheaper in a few months I think. I don't regret buying it yet and i'm looking forward to trying more things in it.
NOTE: I've been using it for a few weeks now. Almost every other day. Foods always comes out OK. Using bags doesn't bother me. I have a ton of them left.
I once turned the timer to the right and nothing happened. Apparently it was a one time only thing. I pressed it in a little and I guess it was stuck.
BTW when you put the bag in and take it out you CAN accidently touch the plastic up top where you mount the bags. It's just warm to the touch. It won't burn you. Just a note for those like me that were curious.
I've tried everything but fish so far (I don't like it) but will try that soon. Hamburgers are ok, but the ones i've tried (95% fat free) were nasty. I don't blame the grill though.
As if I haven't already said it, this blows away the George Foreman Style grills by far. Not if you need to grill a ton of food for a large family. Don't give me that thing about "ohh..but you need to buy expensive bags!". Big deal! Nobody is getting rich off selling you 20-40 cent bags.

I received the Rocket Grill, and right away went to the grocery store and bought stuffed salmon with crabmeat to experiment... with the "new gadget". Readers... YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE IT !!! Two PLUM pieces of stuffed salmon went into one parchment bag, and 4 (FOUR!) MINUTES LATER.. I HAD GRILLED STUFFED SALMON TO PERFECTION !!! What I enjoyed most, was that it was not HOT, but it was WARM and COOKED! and READY TO EAT! In 4 minutes, my mind could not process how soon the cooking and quality took place, but "HEY! I was EATING in 4 MINUTES" !!! Later in the day I made a grilled mozzarella and ham panini... this time only in... 3 (THREE!) MINUTES! I have NEVER EVER had a QUALITY SANDWICH AT HOME !!! Once again, not too hot, but perfectly WARM, the mozzarella was actually CHEWY! and not dripping... and the panini bread actually turned crispy, and as we all know, the cheese usually "melts..." and "sticks" to the bread. This time it turned into the BEST CHEWY MOZZARELLA and ham sandwich I have EVER had at HOME! I LOVE THIS THING! I cannot wait to make a THICK butterflied pork chop tomorrow, and the following day a NICE and PLUM bacon wrapped filet mignon! Also forgot to point out, this is perfect for small families, the parchment bag accomodates up to 2 (two) portions.
Also perfect to watch your diet!
Two words: BUY IT!

I am so glad I took the risk of buying this NEW item with only one review at the time. It does what it says to PERFECTION! Great for singles or familys on the go. There is ZERO cleanup. You can come home starved and drop in a huge frozen chicken breast and in 8-9 min you have a healthy dinner. Think it's going to be a great weight loss tool. All the fat drips into the bottom of the bag. If there were 10 stars I would certainly give it. It even makes great grilled cheese sandwitches in 2 min. The deal that Amazon gives with free shipping and the $[...] promotion makes it a STEAL!

This thing absolutely does what it says it does. Cooks fast, healthy, NO cleanup. Cooks things better than the any other home electric grill I've seen and actually puts real nice grill marks on the food. Works great for steak, chicken, pork chops, hamburgers and sandwiches. My old grill will be on the table at my next yard sale. I only wish I had invented this grill or had stock in Sunbeam. I'm seriously betting this thing is going to sell big numbers it's that good.
