Age 76. I remember some of his fights...but especially "The Rumble in the Jungle" when he fought Ali in Zaire.

RIP Chef. My Foreman grill literally got me through college:

Roommate had one, soooo much chicken and grilled cheese went through it in those days. I made banana stuffed French toast in one of those once, made me a dorm chef celebrity for a week or so.


Thank you George. RIP.

+1 to this. They were clutch as a twenty-something attempting to cook for themselves/roommates.

I didn't even know what a panini was 25 years ago, so George wins for introducing me lol

I still have a bunch of IT clients in the restaurant business from my food service days & we sometimes swap equipment...I got this beast a few years ago in a trade & it is hilariously awesome. It's so big that I have to keep it in my basement haha. 570F cast-iron plates FTW! (bread actually gets crispy!!)
