What temperature are you setting it on?
Thank god you don’t own a restaurant
And then we will make a grilled cheese in the microwave!
It's the same as putting it in the oven.
So, how did you do it???
A steak, in this economy?!
I do steak in my air fryer (when I can afford it) and it comes out just fine. Nice and juicy, not swimming in oil as it can if it is sautéed.
I have been cooking steaks in the air fryer for quite some time. I have to have my steak very well done & the air fryer does the job very well. I don't want pink steak on the inside.
If you cook it frozen in the air fryer it wins hands down
My #1 question has to be "will this set off my smoke alarms?" ..
There is something wrong with you people!
the real question is "can you reheat leftover steak in the air fryer?" yes, this is absolutely the best way.
You can absolutely put a London broil in the air fryer
At the end of the day, people really don’t care they just wanna eat
We can't afford recipes with steak until the tariffs are lifted, so I don't care what you test.
I prefer the air fryer to skillet.
Tin-eared presentation, guys: ignoring screw worm infestations, skyrocketing beef prices, and the possibility of buying beef that has been rejected by the EU. A real "let them eat cake" moment, even if they are using faddish air fryers. No wonder you guys are being outpaced by the more down-to-earth, prole Allrecipes (even Martha Stewart is aping their recipes and shopping tips)
Not all air fryers are built the same either. This video makes it seem easy to replicate those results but it won’t be.
Mine come out ok if you freeze them first and set the temp as high as you can. 8-9 minutes on both sides. Decent in a pinch.
The answer is no.
