I actually love cooking my burgers on the forman a lot better. No flipping and no greese to deal with.
When I first tried it on the forman I was afraid it would turn out horribly and not cooked all the way, but I surprised myself and it was great. Now I do them that way all the time. I can't say how long I let it cook since I keep forgetting to time it, lol. On 2011-01-14, at 11:17 AM, Alex Hall wrote: > Hi all, > I just had an attempt at cooking a hamburger.
