The Hulk Hogan Ultimate Grill grill is not only a grill but a pizza
oven/quesadilla baker, waffle iron and lord knows what else (according to
the "AS SEEN ON TV!"😉. Yes, apparently it can do everything except clean
itself. And look! Only $149.97! (When did it stop being .95 and turn into
.97?!) All this for just $149.97! Run, don't walk! to buy your Hulk Hogan
"grill" NOW!

Its a testimony about the power of marketing. The GF was a grill that no
one wanted. The marketer brought in GF and cut him in. Then they
started pimping it on every TV station and sold zillions of them. Then
they gave him a box of money to buy him out.

Its the same phenomena that makes people pack into big box restaurants
down by the mall.

Oh, sorry! I haven't seen the Hope Diamond since I was 7. School field
trip when I lived in Virginia. Nice blue diamond. Going back to take a nap
with my cat now. <G>

Coming full circle:

<q Wiki>

In an interview on the Tonight Show, Hogan claimed that the George
Foreman grill was originally offered to him, but he failed to respond in
time, thus allowing Foreman to use his endorsement. This was backed up
by an episode of Hogan Knows Best, in which his wife Linda and the
family are worried about Hogan's wrestling career and plead with him to
take up a career in marketing.[9] Hulk explains about turning down the
Foreman grill, and his choice to invest in a shake-mixer instead, saying
that whenever he thinks about investing in something "big", he thinks
about what happened with the grill and the shake-mixer. However, he has
since endorsed a similar product known as "Hulk Hogan's Ultimate Grill."

Does it come with a swell "gravy boat" like George's does?

It doesn't require a cookie for viewing. It wants to place one, but if

Ah. Okay. You said nothing about drilling down, so it appeared that
your response was about the page that was linked.

I have pop-up blockers installed so I never saw anything distracting other
than the advertisement itself. Anyway, my post was in jest since I sure
didn't want anyone to actually *buy* this product. LOL

The popup blocker didn't deflect with the cookie request (which cookie,
as I said, wasn't mandatory for *that* page). Your browser cookie
settings did.

Actually the grill looks pretty good. 🙂

I don't see anything discussed or illustrated about if/how it drains.

It must drain *somehow*! At any rate, for an "indoor grill" the price seems
quite exhorbitant. If I can't use my Webber Kettle I'd rather just use the
broiler setting in my oven and an inexpensive slotted broiler pan.

My buddy watched the video at the Hogan site and said that it, in his
words, "shows that it has a drainage hole that goes into a tray that
slides into the bottom of the unit."

It's about $30 more than the Cuisinart that tried hard to romance me
away from the Foreman grills when I was shopping. I really dug the
Cuisinart for its griddle/handle/hinge design that would work better
with thicker cuts of meat.

http://www.cuisinart.com/catalog/product.php?product_id=295&item_id=397&cat_id=341

= http://tinyurl.com/zarpn

While in that photo it looks like the handle *and* top griddle are
hinged at the back of the unit, it's actually only the *handle* that's
hinged there. The top griddle is hinged only at its middle, and only to
the middle of the handle, so the top can float. So that when you close
it it's always going to rest evenly on your meat, and with the long
throw of that handle it will be able to take thicker pieces.
