Faithful readers of this blog (and I seem to have one or two) will recall my post about the grease tray for my George Foreman grill that fell afoul of a dishwasher's heating coil a few weeks ago.
A long, narrow hole was melted into the side of the tray, rendering it seemingly unusable. I searched for replacement trays online, only to discover the company apparently no longer manufactures trays for grills that will soon be old enough to vote.
Being stubborn -- I refuse to say cheap :-) I'd simply prefer to spend that money elsewhere -- I decided to try something in an effort to salvage the tray. I took some aluminum foil and wrapped it over the hole in the tray.
It worked like a charm. The grease stayed in the tray, didn't leak beneath the foil, and all is fine in Formanville.
Score one for a bit of ingenuity.
