Grilling the Rocket Grill

My youngest son (23 yrs old) moved back in with me and he loves to eat fried, grilled food. He never cleans up after himself. Leaving behind a greasy mess from all the splatter. The Rocket Grill seemed to be the perfect solution to my problem, and it is. Testing the grill was easy. I bought the cheapest fat loaded ground beef that I could find. I grilled the beef until there was nothing left but boiling grease in the bottom of the parchment paper bag. The bag held up perfectly with all of the grease in the bottom of the bag, nothing escaped. The bag and all the grease got tossed into the trash can. I fell in love with the bag immediatly. Next I tried grilling a thick frozen steak. I followed the cooking instructions and in a very short time I was eating the most beautifully grilled steak. The meat was very moist, tender, and grilled to perfection, and all the fat was in the bottom of the bag. My son grilled chicken breasts on another occasion with the same results. The chicken was grilled to perfection, moist and tender, with no mess to clean up. Grilled cheese sandwiches are the best when grilled in the Rocket Grill. Simple and tasty. This grilling machine has saved our relationship. We no longer have dissagreements about him grilling. There are a few things that I dislike about this machine #1 The plastic knob for the timmer has broken. The part of the knob that surrounds the steel timmer shaft is the weak point. There needs to be a flexable spring steel insert inside the knob where it touches the the steel shaft. I have contacted Sunbeam about a replacement and expect an answer soon. #2 The smell of the machine the first few times it is used. Its that new freshly heated steel and plastic odor that does dissapear soon after it is used a few times.#3 The circular adjustable disks with the cooking instructions on them are not put together properly. They are in 2 different languages and both languages are on each disk. The kind of food part of the disk is in english and the part that is the cooking time is in french and it is just the opposite on the other disk. The 2 sets of disks were put together wrong. Both sets of disks have to be used to find the proper settings. I can`t find anything else to complain about. What I like the most about this grill is; easy to use, no mess to clean up, fast cooking time, great grilled taste and not the burned taste usually where the grill steel touches the meat, the bag protects the meat from the steel, my son can grill whenever he wants to and I don`t have to stroke out because there is no mess to clean. He is happy to because I`m not yelling at him anymore. I thought about the George Foreman grill but after using my friends grill I decieded not to purchase one because of the mess it left behind.
