Ok, the ribs didn't turn out so good, and I have not been able to come
up with a way to make them as good as the barbecue. Oh well. I do
have a couple of recipies to share with everyone that turned out
fantastic:

1-2 Frozen Burritos (5 oz. ea.)

T=4:00 U=10 L=3 M=7
Turn over after 2 min.

(Note: The burrito tastes crispy like you cooked it in an oven,
delicious!!)

Hash Brown Patties, Frozen (qty. 1-3)

T=5 U=10 L=4 M=6

Turn over after 3 min.

(Note: Tastes great! No extra oil needed. Shows the real advantage of
speed cooking)

1-2 Hot Pockets

T=4 U=10 L=4 M=5

(Note: (don't use 'crisping sleeve') Crispy and tasty as hot pockets
get)


Ok, now I want to see you guys develop some recipies and post them
here!!

Just a followup message:

I have had the Advantium 220v for a week or so and thought I'd share
my experience. You still need a toaster oven and conventional oven.
This will not substitute for those. It is, however, a great tool for
meal preparation.

A batch of the small blue biscuts that you get at the store takes 5
minutes to cook without having to preheat, and they taste the same as
they would out of a standard oven. Not having to preheat is a great
thing! Today I'm going to slow-cook (~3 hrs) pork spareribs in this
sucker and see how they come out.

I have heard that the 120v models lack power compared to the 220v
models and the cook time is approx. double. I didn't get a 120 model
for that reason.

The GE Advantium is an excellent replacement for a standard
over-the-range microwave, and funtions as a standard microwave also
(as long as you can get 30 amps of 220v, which was not cheap or easy).
You have to get a special electrical outlet to hook this thing up to.
You have to put in a different round tray for microwaving than you use
for 'speedcooking'. It comes with 3 metal trays and 1 microwave tray.

It is no good at all for toasting bread! Don't sell your toaster! Put
a piece of bread in, and in 5 minutes you have a really dry piece of
bread that is nasty. Isn't technology wonderful?

Cooking meat with it is amazing. You can really cook meat thoroughly
without drying it out. Chicken breasts are probably the best thing
that it does. You can fully cook 4 large chicken breasts in 9 min
(with no preheating) and have fully cooked delicious juicy chicken
that you cannot achieve with any other method that I know of.

I love to cook and I'm about 15 pounds overweight to prove it!!

Another good (from what I hear) product, but no support. anyone know of
any cook books, other than what GE has on their site? Has anyone ever
actually used one?

I am looking at the over the range 240v model.

thanks.

I just bought a 220v model, and man am I impressed (and broke, lol).
I just speedcooked chicken parmesan for 9 min, and it is so juicy and
well cooked, so much better than convection or microwave!! I must
say, the 7 min skirt steak that I cooked last night was awesome as
well. Score 1 for GE!!!
