ABSTRACT:
A disposable grill cover for indoor counter top grills having two cooking plates such as the George Foreman® grills contains a first and second sheet or sheet portion of aluminum foil of a fixed shape designed to mate with the two contoured cooking surfaces of the grills. The sheets are positioned over the cooking surfaces of the grill using tabs on each side of the sheets extending the same layer of aluminum. The contoured surface including ribs/grooves and bumps of the two sheets correspond exactly to the contoured surface including ribs, bumps and a rim on the two cooking surfaces of the grill to minimize heat loss. Cleaning the grill from fat, grease and odor from food residue is avoided before each use. A front extension of the first sheet extends into and covers the interior surface of the drip tray of the George Foreman® grill.
