Paul asks…
Dark grey soot underneith George Forman electric BBQ grills?
I have a George Foreman electric BBQ, and for the very first time since I got the BBQ last year I noticed dark grey soot underneith both grills! It was hard to clean, but I managed to clean it up. But my question is, is this normal? Should I report this to the company? Because I actually cook on those grills and I'm afraid to get food poisoning due to some left over particles contamination from underneith the grills onto the top of the grills where the food goes to cook.

You should report this to the company.

Electric BBQ Grills: Do they work well?
We were looking at gas bbq grills and found an electric one at Lowe's. Do these work just as good as gas grills and are they easy to maintain? Does the food taste good when cooked on them?
newportablegrills.com answers:
They do what they are supposed to but I don't think the flavor is as good. If you just want to cook the meat, that's fine. If you want more flavor go with gas, even more flavor you'll want charcoal.
Betty asks…
Have they sent BBQ grills and fireworks to the military persons who are overseas?
newportablegrills.com answers:
No one wnats the firework to go off in the mail AS IF, it is a bomb or IEd sent thru the mail, so don;t do it!!!! MWR has grills for rent in Iraq and Afghanistan and the meat can be bought for the units during the holidays since there is no more fast food and I have heard of family members trying to ship alcohol as well, and one soldier got a DUI because of it in a dry country.
Donna asks…
Why can't bbq grills use either propane (LP) or natural gas (NG) without a conversion kit?
I bought a weber grill that is set up for natural gas and I need it to work using propane. I wanted to just take off the natural gas hose and attach a propane hose and regulator, but weber said I couldn't do that.
newportablegrills.com answers:
Because Propane has a higher BTU (british thermal unit) content. So the orifice that "meters" the propane to the burners needs to be smaller than the natural gas. Also, we need more pressure to push the propane throught the smaller orfice, so a different pressure regulater is needed. If you put propane to a natural gas appliance or bbq, you would have one heck of a huge fire, and it would be extremely dangerouse. As for the answer two down from mine, that is incorrect. Natrual gas is lighter than air, propane is heavier. Natural gas will "float" all over, where as propane will sink to the lowest area it can get to.
