Have you ever used or reviewed the Fuego gas grill Fuego Element Hinged F21C-H? I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on it and in comparison to this Ninja grill as well. Thank you, I think your videos are excellent!
Love your reviews. I own an original Ninja Foodi Grill and I am considering the IG601, mostly for the griddle and bottom heating. Do you think it is a worthy upgrade? Amazon has been censoring reviews again, but it seems people are complaining about things like :Probe errors, lid closing errors, food sliding down into the grease traps, and the ceramic finish peeling off.
You get about a year of nonstick on the grill grate no matter how well you take care of it. I've gone through two now. Neither were ever in the dishwasher. The second never saw any kind of oil spray. They both failed in a year after using on average twice a week. Other than that it is a great machine.
Thank you CJ, Merry Christmas!
How long does it take to smoke a 5 lb chicken
Is cooking area the same size as the Ninja Pro Connect XL?
whoops wrong video, where did you get the guard for the grease trap?
How to cook falling off the bone tender baby back ribs
I use the smart probe doing chicken, it's rarely cxooked properly when i do, prefer use the manual setting
I bought the latest IG651 and it didnt come with that narrow grill part covering the grease trap to prevent food falling in.
thank you for another great video, i had this machine , but ended up getting rid of it because of the cleaning problem as im a massive clean freak ,, but after i regretted it , nothing else came close , so ive just re orderd another , , you ,mentioned powerwash , is that a kind of cleaning product , or did you litterly mean a powerwasher ?, i did use a steam cleaner on the last ninja , but that just made everything chalky and actually look even worse, any advice from youre side would be well appreciated , , yours looks , just how i would like to keep mine , , thankyou my friend , from the UK
Hey CJ where can I grab one that has 240W for Australia?
Do you prefer the FG551 or Ig651?
What is the difference between 5-n 1,
6-n 1, & the 7-1?
The 7-n 1 appears a lot larger.
Can a big chicken fit in for roasting?
Can you shut the lid to grill steaks so smoke does not escape into my white kitchen or grease escape when cooking bacon.
Would be nice to understand the differences.
Can I put a whole chicken in there?
I have this=only problem=dripping grease in the back? On my counter! Anyone have this problem?
Thank you so much for this video, I wasn’t sure which model I wanted but I’m sold on the XL pro!
Has not arrived in New Zealand. Pity
Can you put the bottom grill element in the dishwasher even though it has a heating element?
$130 off via his link on Amazon right now… that is an awesome deal!
Mine won't cook! Says close lid. Not sure how I can close it more than it already is. Expensive piece of junk. Junk, I wonder if it floats! Customer support sure is busy so can't talk to anyone either. Sorry CJ I loved your videos but this machine has pissed me off
Hey mate thanks for the informative videos. We enjoy watching them. Quick question do you know if the Ninja Silicone Mini Mould would fit in Foodi smart XL pro grill ? Look forward to your reply.
I never seen the ninjas infomercial. I only seen your videos so good job!
Hey bro, I just bought a version of this but without the temp probe, does this mean I can’t add one on later? I can’t seem to find that out.
I have the IG651 and I also appreciate you videos. I have an issue with mine when it comes to dehydrate. i put it on the settings, adjust the temperature and time. I hit start by pushing the dial in. It reads ADD FOOD on the screen, I add the food close the lid and the screen still says ADD FOOD, I wait a minute the ADD FOOD does not go away, I still wait and then the machine shuts off, I repeat this process and in stead of waiting for the ADD FOOD display to time out and turn off, I push the start button and it turns the grill off. Any idea what is going wrong here? Thank You
Hey CJ can you please link me the power wash cleaner devices you use to clean griddle
I wish they sold an accessory Griddle with higher walls that's the only Con maybe a deal breaker purchased from Amazon so I still have time to return it.
Love your videos I used your recipes.
I would like to know how to cook a rump roast on this cooker
Amazing video my friend. I am willing to put this (huge) air fryer in a checked baggage for a flight. I was wondering if it is okay to take off the top part without breaking it appart hahaha. I saw two screws on the back of it, however I am not sure if I could take it out without causing any further problems. Just by taking the top part off would easy the pressure above the airfryer inside the baggage (P= F/A). Since the Area (A) is small with this top part, with some impact, it may force the entire equipment.
Have you ever disassemble one of these?
Yo CJ what's good, I love your video on this and I am going to buy this machine so I can diversify my menu and save money instaed of going out alot. I really enjoyed the break down and I am going to watch your other food videos on cooking other items. Thank you very much. Sean
In the top, there is a fan and element as well?
I love all things Ninja! I have the Foodi, the knives, cookware, bakeware, food processor and the coffee maker. . I have the 5 in1 and am thinking of upgrading to the 7 in 1. I love the fact that it has a griddle. Thanks CJ for making these videos. I appreciate you.
Hey man. What is the roasting temperature range?
Can you cook slow and slow on it.
I want to smoke some meat. Then finish it up for hours in doors
It's almost a year now since this video. Any updates? It's on my shopping list and ready to purchase but I really respect your review. So since this review, how is it working for you since then? Would you raise the bar or lower the bar or neutral?
CJ, any idea where I can get the little cover over the grease collector that I see in your video? I can't find them on Ninja's website. Anything heavy, like a steak, keeps sliding down into the grease catch/collector. Thanks in advance for your help.
Tooo bad for them because Iwoud have bought it just because I know you know your FOOD … So sad for them!
Hey dude, I really appreciate your Ninja videos! – I just bought this fryergrill and have been using your videos a general guide. Very helpful to visually see your real-world presentations. I have learned a lot and you helped speed up the learning curve… I just love how well food cooks (and tastes) in this thing. And I love the contained mess and smells as well. I even bought silicone fingered gloves that I saw in one of your videos! Very useful solution to handling the very hot plates after use… Thanks again bro and keep up the excellent mouth-watering work! 🙂
So quick question … when it’s on the bake option is the fan blowing harder or the same as air fry or is it more like a lower convection style fan speed?
Thank you for this review, I'm a newbie to the Ninja Foodi's and decided to take the plunge because I feel so bad having hubby have to grill outside in 110 degree heat here in Phoenix. So far I've made cheeseburgers and Philly Cheesesteaks. Steaks are next. Looking forward to watching you cook different recipes on it!
I just bought a couple of these as Christmas presents
What’s the depth with the lid completely open?
I have the 6 in 1 xl grill. I got great deal on the 7 in 1 pro. This one doesn’t have thermometer. Would you recommend using the 7 in 1 or sticking with my old foodie?
So can you line the top with foil to avoid having to clean as much?
Hi CJ! Is a major difference with this XL that you can cook with lid open? Whereas the original you can not? Thanks
Hey CJ. I literally just bought the 5 in 1 a week ago. After watching your video. It's going back and I'm picking up the 7-in-1 smart XL grill in the morning. I'm hoping you have another link to a physical review as you mentioned at the beginning of this video. I've heard some people have gripes about the air fryer basket and how it catches oil and simple little things like that. But all the reviews seem very positive that I've seen but I would like to see your review!
This guy does the best demonstration of the grill
Does this one allow you to add the plug-in temperature probe??
