My George Foreman grill, I mean.

It finally happened. I made some pork last night, and forgot to put in
the top griddle. D'oh!

When I put the griddles in after washing them, I always put them both in.
Well, of course.

But something must've distracted me last night, and I never installed the
top one. I didn't notice this until I noticed it sitting on top of the
range (right next to the Foreman!), where they had been drying (no, not
with the burners on); at about the same time I noticed the smell of smoke.

Man, oh man, was the top of that pork ever done!

And then some.

Not the rest, of course, which had been grilling normally -- for only a
couple of minutes of the intended 10-minute session.

I readjusted my approach and salvaged the pork.

And cleaned up the Foreman this morning.

Surprisingly, the cleanup wasn't too bad. But avoidance would've been
better.
