Sunbeam RG12 Rocket Grill Electric Grilling Appliance

Although this kitchen gadget looks a bit strange, it works like a charm. I am on my second one of these grills, I love it.

This gadget is a real time-saver, it has virtually no clean up. You simply prepare your meat, put it in the bag, cook it and throw the bag away.

I thought perhaps the meat would be greasy, but the bag has a way of draining the grease away from the meat. 

To be honest with you I must give you the bad points too. I am on my second one because on the first one rather than let the time run out I turned the timer dial and then it would not work anymore. So you must be careful with the twist dial it is sensitive. But I liked the gadget enough I went and bought another one.

Also, if I am cooking hamburgers or thin steaks or chops this grill can’t be beat. But, if the steaks are thick it takes a long time to cook them to medium and generally the outside gets overcooked. However, if you get them cooked to your liking they taste great. In addition this is not really meant for a large family but for two people it is great. The bags are only big enough for two hamburgers so that limits it. The bags are also rather expensive. I do however highly recommend this kitchen gadget.
