BURNING MY OLD FRYER OUT OF WATER

Wow, I loved my old fryer but it's nothing compared to this one! I can't believe what I've missed all these years. The things I air fry take it to a whole new level of crispy jars that I've never experienced before. The BBQ is fabulous too! I like to fry sandwiches and rolls in minutes. It also has a pan insert. You can cook pancakes and sausages on it. To be honest I have never used my oven since I got it. That's really all. The pens are self-explanatory and I didn't even have to read the…

Pros
  • NINJA'S MOST POWERFUL GRILL*: The 500F self-contained grill grill delivers direct, edge-to-edge grilling at high temperatures for the best grilling results**. (*Based on direct grate heating element **Compared to FG500 series grills.)
Cons
  • Empty

Sent back, never reached 500 degrees

Purchased direct from ninjakitchen prior to sale at Revain 7:30 preheat time and only 375 grill temp measured with IR gun. three different cooks and measured the same temperature. By the way, the infrared gun is calibrated. The steaks were cooking but it took longer. It is not possible to over-rare or medium sear a beef steak with crispy or charred skin unless the steak is about 1 1/2 inches thick. Steaks for sale are usually 3/4 inch but no larger than 1 inch, so the meat is always medium to…

Pros
  • SMART COOK SYSTEM + THERMOMETER: Foodi's smart thermometer allows you to achieve the perfect doneness from done to good with 4 smart protein settings and 9 customizable cooking levels. Get everything done at the touch of a button, no more guesswork and no more or less cooking.

Huge Efficient Indoor Grill & Airfryer (5 Stars)

To be honest I didn't know what to expect from this Ninja Food Smart Grill and Fry Pan other than it was going to be big. I took a chance that the kitchen lot he occupied was worth it - and luckily it is. It doesn't have the steep learning curve of Ninja Foodi's pressure cooker/fryer/steamer. The included instructions will help you determine the heat level, whether you should leave the top open or closed, and, if you bought the smart thermometer version, the temperature you want to aim for…

Pros
  • DRIVE OR COOK DOWN: Lower the hood to add cyclonic airflow for fast, even cooking, searing, toasting and melting at high heat. Keep the lid open to roast intensively at high temperature and only season with direct heat from below.
Cons
  • Neutral
