I have the ninja XL smart grill. It does a lot and it is the easiest air fryer for the kids to use too. I've made just about everything in it from steaks to flatbreads. It's a footprint but instead of warming up the big oven for / whatever / I can just bake, grill or air fry. Edit: often in a fraction of the time.

r/cookingforbeginnersCan an airfryer completely replace an oven?
8 months ago

I have the ninja smartXL and it replaces just about everything I do in the oven except bake bread. Only because I bake a few loaves at a time. I would 100% go for it. Less heat in the house too.

r/airfryerIs the Ninja Foodi Max Grill & Air Fryer DG551 EU good for long-term student use?
7 months ago

I have that along with a cheaper air fryer. The ninja foodi is a wonderful device. Particularly for cooking steaks. But it can be a pain to clean and it doesn't do well for things like french fries or chicken nuggets. I would go with just a generic cheap air fryer to start. We use our cheap air fryer every day. The ninja foodi only gets used when it's too cold to grill outside.

Imam ninja foodi xl sa 2 korpe, smart verzija. Najčešće spremam piletinu i pomfrit. Ubaciš čitavo pile, ubodeš termometar i to je to. Ima recepata milion, spremaju ljudi svašta. Recimo bilo šta svinjsko ne volim stavljati u airfryer jer mi bude suvo, dok piletina bude savršeno sočna.

We have a Ninja Foodi Grill XL which is also an air fryer. It gets used all the time, and we clean if after every use. I like that it has multiple functions in addition to air fryer.

I have the Ninja XL Grill. The larger basket and grill functions make it useful for meals for 2-4 people. In the USA most people don't have convection ovens, and an air fryer is a small convection oven. It heats up fast, and doesn't heat up the house like a full size oven. The grill pan makes it a good indoor grilling option. Steak, sausage, chicken, fish, does a good job on all of them. There are many foods which are especially good in the air fryer, and faster than other methods. Frozen convenience foods like tater tots, chicken nuggets, shrimp, fish sticks, any frozen appetizers, etc. All get crispy and cook faster than a regular oven. Roast vegetables. It's one of its best features. Reheat pizza and fried foods. Grilled cheese sandwiches. Pretty much hands off and quick. The small ones will be too small for more than two people. They do take up space. But they are a great convenience tool for what they do well.

r/airfryerWhy do you guys prefer dual air fyers?
6 months ago

I've seen the dual zone ones recommended before. Personally, it either cuts the usable area down so you can't do large things, or it makes the air fryer too big. Our air fryer recently died and needed to be replaced. We don't have as many of the name brand options where I live but ninja is available. Picked up the foodi grill because it looked convenient to use and it is head and shoulders above the old drawer basket style we had. It preheats faster, seems to circulate the air a bit better so things are crispier and it's so much easier to load things in and take things out. The grill plate works pretty well too. I'm not a huge ninja fan, but this air fryer makes me willing to at least consider the ninja brand for other things. There aren't too many occasions that we would need two different things cooked in the air fryer. Either it is being used for the protein, in which case the sides are getting cooked on the stove, or I'm using it for a side in which case the main is cooked on the stove. Or I'm reheating some leftovers and nothing else is getting cooked.

It's been about 4 months now and every time I use it I still think about how I'm glad the old one died because this one is so much better. As a side note, it does an awesome job with leftover pizza, just toss some cold slices in there and run the preheat and about a minute after preheat is done and it's even better than when it was fresh pizza!

I have a ninja foodie grill with an aircrisp feature and there is definitely a preheat function. Maybe it's just a ninja thing.

Thank you. I don't know anyone else who has a ninja but is it only me that's aggravated when I have to clean it after grilling? All my marinade gets stuck. I see everyone using parchment paper on Instagram but I don't think we can use that in the ninja. Ugh

r/airfryerHow to dry potatoes for fries?

I've been soaking it with the dawn powerwash spray because I am lazy but I am worried it's going to ruin the coating. I wish we could use the paper but there's no way. Our ninja machines are so different than the other air fryers. I like making the boneless skinless thighs in the marinade that includes Greek yogurt, but I find the yogurt is the worst with getting burned and stuck.

I make air fryer sliders all football season long. Wings are also fire. I have the Ninja Indoor Grill/Air Fryer that also works as a dehydrator. It's bigger than a standard air fryer but I actually do use all the functions.

r/AppliancesToaster oven or air fryer which one is better?
3 months ago

Love our ninja appliances. We have the foodi indoor grill/airfryer machine and it is great for convenience and minimal cleanup. It is used frequently throughout the week. It can grill, roast, bake, air fry and even dehydrate food. We also have the outdoor woodfire grill/smoker which is just as nice. It's easier to make smoked food than my cabinet smoker and is better in adverse weather conditions.
