Byamazingfoodstv


Here is my full review of the Ninja Foodi Grill. I later learned that there IS a dehydrating basket *sold separately* that I have not tested yet. Maybe for Part 2!

  4. The trick is to airfry meat from frozen. That way it doesn't get dried out, yet crispy on the outside. I started doing it years ago because I wanted them to stay frozen to not get increased histamine load, and found out they just turned out way better. I usually cook it at 180c for 15 minutes. Then crank the last 5 to 200c. That way it doesn't get burnt on the outside, and once it's cooked all the way through, the high heat makes it crispy on the outside layer. Perfect blend, especially goes for steaks. So good!

    Ps. color of chicken != cooking level. They can be pink and still be cooked properly. It needs to be checked with a thermometer or bounce. Color can just be from seeping from bones etc.

  10. I don't like the chicken in the grill either. It seems like everytime I cook chicken on the grill it is too done. I prefer to cook in the oven. Steaks on the other hand usually come out great.

  12. We just got one a couple of weeks ago on sale for 129.00. So far I love it. As for cooking times, it may be that they are trying to err on the side of caution. They don't want to be responsible for people eating undercooked food. I am also impressed with how easily it cleans up. And yes, it is large and a little on the heavier side. Still love using it though.

  14. Just bought my Ninja Foodi grill. I agree the cook times are incorrect in the guide. once you get past the timing learning curve, I love it. I've been using it 2-3 times a day. To deal with the fat drippings during grilling, when it's time to add the meat, I lift the grill out, and put in a parchment paper 9×9 "bowl". put the grill back on, add the meat and get to grilling. When done, i then take the grill out, lift the grease filled parchment bowl out. quick wipe with a paper towel, then put in the air fry crisper basket, and off I go. quick easy clean and no smoke 🙂

  22. I still use a George Foreman grill and I routinely cook chicken breast to 170~180 degrees and it's still super juicy and delicious. However, the trick I use is to put aluminum foil on the grill surfaces before cooking, which also makes for easy cleanup.

  25. We've been using ours for years and we love it. I've made steaks pork chops and chicken and it works great. It perfect for the kids too when they want chicken nuggets or mini corn dogs. I use it probably 4 days a week.

  26. time for the REAL QUESTION. Did you immediately fish that booklet from under your stove after filming? Or did you procrastinate. Either way, find any treasure under there?

    I have this air fryer and so far it's my favorite for cleaning, heat and ease of use. Out of the many I have tried, this takes the cake so far.

  29. How was the cleaning process? Was it easy, or did you had a hard time really getting it cleaned properly?
    Was it 'clean every time you use' kind of grill? I guess it would be magic otherwise…

  34. Chicken breast dries out very quickly, but I would never cook chicken from frozen, it’s too risky. I thaw the chick in the fridge before cooking, then I use the foolproof method for juicy chicken breast. Using a saucepan with a good lid, cover the chicken with cold water and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove from the heat to a heatproof surface. Leave the pot untouched for thirty minutes, then remove the chick breast and enjoy with your favourite sauce or gravy, or use in sandwiches.

    I prefer to steam my vegies, they keep more of their nutrients.

  37. You literally saved my life. I got one of these at a garage sale this weekend brand new, but no instructions or paperwork.

    But it's Freakin' Reviews to the rescue! Thank you, thank you so much! I love your channel – you present yourself very well, and your submissions are always entertaining.

  38. Excellent review thank you so much. I’m a long haul truck driver I was on the fence about buying one of these. One minor point “my own personal opinion” I would not object to overcooking chicken or pork. I would rather overcook by a minute or two rather than undercooked

  40. Got a smaller version of this for Christmas. I use it ALL the time. It's true that the cooking times are way too long in the manual. I really do recommend this and mine only cost about 100 dollars. After maybe 100 uses for both air fry and grill, still works perfectly, the nonstick is top notch when cleaning. And if you clean after every use, I've never seen smoke.
