Got the ninja foodie. It’s ok. Not particularly fond of the air frying but the pressure cook feature is the bomb. If you want a crock pot type meal now it only takes an hour instead of all day. And it makes soup in half an hour. Gotta be careful though. It’ll turn the veggies to baby food in five minutes.

I'll stick to the Weber....... For deep frying? Well you could if you wanted to, I just prefer grilled food to anything else.

Yep!
Well, actually I don't. But my wife is a professional game-cookbook writer, and bought one a couple years ago, and uses it at least a couple times a week, and it didn't take long to convert a number of previous recipes to the air-fryer, with excellent results.
As somebody already stated, they're compact convection ovens, which have been around a long time. They use accelerated movement of very hot air to do some of the same jobs that take far longer with deep-frying--with far easier clean-up.

Salmon filet pieces turn out great when my wife does ‘em in our Ninja Air Fryer (she bought it for me for Christmas cause I like to cook and wanted one! Haha).

I use ours to do french fires and tater tots, and to reheat fried food. That's it. That and wings. Worth it for wings alone. This! I do wings in mine all if the time.

tikkabut,
Sounds good! Will forward to Eileen.
She's used it on a bunch of stuff so far, including veggies, game and "tame" meat, and after a little adjusting the recipes it's worked great.
But as noted, that's what she does for a living, so isn't hesitant to try things several times to get them right....

So just the peeled deveined models? Wifey uses the ez-peel raw ones. I’d be afraid pre-cooked ones would be over-cooked. Scallops get just cooked enough to be hot inside. I think the last shrimp were 21-25 count.
What fresh Hell is this?

I’ve got a go-wise, the American test kitchen runs tests on them…. the Instapot is the latest winner for bigger servings…
I’ve been using one for a couple years now.

We really like ours. Don't remember the brand but it wasn't expensive. Haven't tried chicken wings yet because they cost a fortune.... way more that skinless boneless chicken... kind of a bummer they got so popular...
Try reheating pizza in one. Maybe 2 minutes and still crispy.
Please don't feed the trolls!
