I feel that you were not true to your review. You seem to have an issue with every cook and still gave it a thumbs up. You also gave it a pass for not having to use a lot of dishes but you still had to use your oven on some cooks. Why spen so much money to still have to use your oven, the Pro model claims to be a dutch oven. I wan to thank you for this video but IMO this product is a BIG fail!!
Thanks very much for your point of view !!
Walmart, $70 something.. just picked it up
This is what a review should be like. Down-to-earth, straightforward, honest, not glitzy, but technically well presented. The ordinary home chef will relate well to this. As for the Ninja, it survived the various tests well. We have several Ninja products, and this one will not be an exception. Not in Canada? 😞
Thanks for the fantastic comment and feedback. And yes this product is available now in Canada 🇨🇦. Cheers. Marc
What a great presentation of the Ninja product! I was very impressed with the appliance. Thank you!!
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Thank you for your review! Love watching your videos! I made a pot roast with potatoes and carrots in mine yesterday. Was absolutely hands down the best roast I have ever made! It was falling apart! What I truly loved was the Ninja pot did not heat up my kitchen as it cooked all day long!
Love this comment !! Thanks so much for the feedback and the ongoing support ! We agree, that product is awesome ! Marc
Hey, could you tell me what setting you used and for how long? Some reviews have mentioned the high setting is too hot, and low setting too low..... Thx!
Gotta say, one of the best reviews I have seen. You covered everything I want to know before purchasing. Thanks.
Wow thanks so much for the wonderful comment !!! Marc
Thank You for the Awesome Review, I love that you tried several cooking options on the Product ! I just took the Plunge and Ordered mine since it was on Sale on the Ninja Link!!
Awesome! Let us know how you like it! - J
Excellent video! The soup looked delicious as well as the Mac and cheese casserole! Keep up the great reviews!
Thanks so much ! Marc
Thanks for the excellent review. I just bought one of these because I need a larger crock pot, but wasn't familiar with all the different ways I can use it. It's really helpful that you test some of the recipes from the booklet.
Thanks for much for watching and the comment !! Marc
I like that you test the Ninja recipes that come with their appliances. I've heard that some of the recipes are real clunkers, but most seem to turn out pretty well for you. Keep up the good work. I find your channel really useful.
Thanks so much, our goal is always to see if the product can do, what they “say” it can do. Thanks for watching !! Marc
Great review - very thorough. And importantly - very apt for amateur cooks like us who just cook for ourselves at home. Thanks for your content, & cheers from Canada 🇨🇦.
Awesome comment ! Thanks very much. Marc
I just bought this to replace my slow cooker. I love Ninja products. Costco had it for $70. I came across your video in my search to see all what I can do with it. I have to say that I totally enjoyed your review. I just subscribed to your channel. Good job to you & Jamie!
Thanks so much for the support! - J
Thanks for this great review! My Ninja Foodi Grill XL is truly one of the best purchases I've EVER made.. so was debating on buying this too. I think I will! 😊
Thanks for the wonderful comment and let us know how you like it! - J
I watch your channel consistently, I had to giggle when you liked to see a beep!
You’ve influenced me on several products to buy, or pass on.
Thanks, keep on a cooking!
This comment made my day !! Thank you so much for the ongoing support !! Marc
This is the BEST type of review for the product! Pros and cons, testing the recipe book on the spot! Five stars out of five!🎉
Thank you so much for that! - J
Wow! As always packed full of content in a small timeframe! Get-her-done! I wish I could cook fast like you! I did purchase this item and ended up returning it. The non-stick was something different and every time I wiped the inside with paper towel, it would leave tiny pieces throughout the pan. Never ever had a single dish, pot, or pan do that. I had also decided that I didn’t need another multi-cooker as all of my recent purchases has most of those options including air fry. Thanks again for a wonderful unboxing and video demonstration.
Wow awesome comment, really appreciate your feedback and your point of view. Cheers. Marc
Thanks so much for this review! I really appreciate that you made several different foods on camera. It helped me to see how versatile the cooker is!
I'm curious, how did the non-stick coating hold up over time? Is it still an easy clean?
Thanks very much ! So far so good ! Marc
Thank you for the info and your time. I appreciate the "Average guy" approach to your reviews. Subscribed....Have a great Thanksgiving! (if you do that in Canada, not sure 🤔)
Thanks so much! We do, but it happens in October so we've already had our turkey. 🦃 - J
I like your no-nonsense approach.
Thanks so much for recognizing that ! Much appreciated! Marc
Nice video! I have so many other Ninja products, including the Ninja Speedi, so I won’t be purchasing this product; however, I certainly appreciate your demonstration - always thorough and detailed - so it’s easy to follow. I definitely appreciate that!
Thanks so much, I know you’ve watched and commented before. We really appreciate the ongoing support !! Marc
Awesome review. Thank you very much
Thanks so much for watching! - J
I have this and got it last Christmas. It is an awesome slow cooker. 💜
Awesome, thanks for the comment! - J
I have the possible cooker and I love it. In the UK there is only the one version (same as your pro version) although there is no sous vide setting sadly.
In the UK it comes with the steam rack and although the instructions tell you to use it to steam so veg in the rack, you can just throw potatoes into the pan with water as you did and it’s all good.
However, our instruction book clearly says potatoes cut into 1.5cm slices.
Or, whole ‘new’ potatoes (so quite small potatoes) and I’ve found it does cook them just fine in 15-20 minutes on the steam setting.
Another great video, thanks guys!
Awesome ! Thanks for the insight! Marc
What is the slow cook like? I normally put slow cook on for 8 hours and by time I come back the carrots and potato is really soft on my morphie slow cooker
Ohh we have this and love it for our family. We use it weekly!
Awesome. Thanks for watching ! Marc
Hey, great video and thanks for taking the time to do it. I was wondering, if you already have a ninja Foodi, what it the benefit of this device? Other than being able to put in the oven. Not sure how often it would use it and if it is worth it.
Hey thanks for the comment. We just buy a ton of appliances and review them. This is a slow cooker primarily. Not an air fryer like the foodi. Marc
Well done. You are entertaining. I wish you success in your youtube adventure.
Thank you so much !!! Marc
I bought the possiblecooker. Not the pro version as I can still steam in this one. Video shows the versatility of the cooker. I am sure I will enjoy my new Ninja cooker! I love the Ninja products!
Thanks so much for the great comment ! Enjoy your ninja ! Marc
Thanks! I will get one asap👍🏼
The link is in the description!! Thanks marc
I have this Ninja and many other brands, I have yet find their cooking times accurate. It is a learning curve.
Have to agree with that. Thanks for watching! - J
I agree they should say what size potatoes also when sautéing don't use the lid it makes too much condensation
👍 - J
Just got this at Costco for $80 So far I've only made chili, but it was great, brown the meat, and sear the veggies and then set it to slow cook. Made a nice large quantity. Loved it. It's going to be perfect for searing a roast before slow cooking
Amazing ! Thanks for watching. Marc
I love your tutorials
Thank you so much ! We love that you watch them ! Marc
I have the older model. It’s probably about 10 years old. It still works great. Thanks for the ideas.
That’s awesome ! Thanks for watching. Marc
Thank you for this awesome review, I bought this last week because it was on sale at Costco and was unsure of whether I really needed to keep it (already have 3 Crockpots as well as an InstantPot) but after seeing your video, I am definitely going to keep it. Probably will get rid of one of my crockpots though LOL Thanks again!!
Awesome comment thanks !! Marc
Somehow avoided ever buying a crockpot or anything similar. Looking at this one for my first, would you recommend it for a jack of all trades device? I have a Ninja airfryer and blender and love them so I have good prior experiences with the brand!
@firestarya I love the instant crock pot slow cooker. We reviewed it. I use it at home all the time. Marc
I was recently gifted this product. I've tried one recipe. It was the deviled eggs. Recipe was in the book that came with the cooker. Eggs were still 100% raw. Now I'm nervous to try anything else until I came across your video. Thank you so much for your review!
Thanks very much for the comment and watching ! Marc.
Thanks so much for your reviews! I just got one of these Ninja Foodi Possible Cooker Pro for $79.99 on sale at Costco here in WA state. I am a die-heart user of my ancient crock pot and my lovely cast iron ceramic dutch oven but my husband talked me into this and I can't wait to use it. Thanks so much for kind people like you that step in and give us help! Best to you!
Thank you soooo much for such a wonderful comment !! Marc
Would love to hear your feedback. I'm trying with getting one since it is on sale, again.
I, too, have cast iron Dutch ovens, instant pots and crock pots.
But I'm thinking this could be like a summer oven, to avoid heating the kitchen in the summer.
It seems to me that to steam the food should sit on a rack, but sitting in the water is more like you would cook in a saucepan on the stove top. I like your reviews and that has helped me decide that this item doesn’t really do anything that my ninja 7 in 1 grill or my 11 in 1 smart lid foodi cooker cannot do
Good point. We didn't have the rack as you heard but that makes sense. Glad we could help! - J
Mine came with rack!
I have a ton of racks sitting around my kitchen and don’t need another-I’ll just use one of my existing racks, I’m sure at least one of them will fit. Problem solved and I don’t have to find space to store another rack!
Could adding warm water instead of cold faucet water make a difference in the cooking time process of the cooker
Its hardly any water so it’s still steaming. Exactly the same as doing it in the microwave. It’s not even barely submerged in the water
Could you make the potpie with the bake setting?
I don't see why not! - J
I have the foodi X-LARGE grill so this is the kind of thing I’m looking for as it fills the gaps that the XL can’t.
Nice. My only complaint with it, now that I’ve had it a couple months… is there’s no medium slow cook setting. Only high and low. And the high, is quite high, like make your stew boil high…. Thanks for watching. Marc
Hi there...I am buying this after watching this video...Thank you :) ! Question first...I want to make Cocoa Brownies in it....Do I use normal 8x8 brownie tin or Pyrex type glass square in it? I am confused to the 'steam bake' or Bake option...I've searched comments & reviews here on RUclips and Ninja website...I can't find how to make brownies in it... Water in bottom of pan? ....Hope you can help...and thank much !
Thanks so much for watching. Unfortunately I don’t know the answer to that question. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen Thanks for letting me know...appreciate the quick feedback. Thinking of the Kitchen Aid oven/air fryer you reviewed...I did read of the one serious mishap...haven't seen others comment on negative of this unit-except for initial outgassing of plastic smell first two uses...Do you still use your's ? Thanks.
Omg it’s my fav small appliance I’ve ever used. Works unbelievable, we use it every day here. I’ve had it for 6 plus months. Zero issues. Marc
Could I use this as my main slowcooker start in morning and come home after work and have a meal?Thankyou!
Absolutely, I do that often. Marc
I just ordered one for My mom ! To replace a broken slow cooker ! & got a good deal on it ! & we have a roast to put in & try it !
Awesome !! Let us know how you like it !! Marc
I have a glass lid for my Ninja Foodi. I use it sometimes when I saute veggies. You do have to be careful with the condensation but having a lid speeds up the process.
Good point. Thanks for watching! - J
I just got mine a couple of weeks ago and madly in love with it! But I must say that Ninja let the ball drop not including a rack with this cooker. But I got one that fits it to a tee, so I’m cool.
Yeah it's an awesome product. Thanks for watching! - J
Would you mind sharing the rack you got?
@@Anotherbaglady16 It’s the rack from my old ninja cooking system I think. I gave that one to my neighbor but didn’t include all the parts. Discovered that I still had it in my cabinet and it fits the possible cooker like it was made for it.
Do you happen to remember which system it came from. May be able to order that specific rack, which sounds like would be perfect.
@@michaelpedigo3491 It don't matter which one. Any of the old ninja cooking systems will have a rack that fits the possible cooker. Try and see if you can find one real cheap on Ebay or Amazon.
How hot is the sear setting on high? I was hoping I'd have a temperature dial for that
I can’t really say for sure. There’s no way to monitor the temp. Marc
Great video
Thanks so much !! Marc
How good is the steaming function compare to Cusinart STM1000?
We actually haven’t reviewed any cusinart products. Yet…. Thanks for watching
Can you please tell me if you can do a prime rib and please show! Thank you!!!
I can’t see why not. I’ll add it to our list. Don’t forget to scribe and hit the notification bell so you don’t miss it ! Marc
I just bought one today and I’m not sure if there’s something wrong with it? The thing keeps preheating past 5 minutes on Sear/Sauté on High and Low? It became so hot I manually turned it off. Is it supposed to do this? Thank you for any advice.
Hmmmm that seems abnormal. I’d call ninja and see what they say. Marc
Hi! I do love mine. I don't see myself using my old crockpot anymore unless I need it for a big group of people. I don't have an instapot.. I still use my Dutch oven tho.. On occasion. I make a lot of dishes with dried beans and I have found it very convenient from soaking to finished product. I'm thinking that if I had an instapot I probably wouldn't have bought this as just not enough kitchen space for so many 'convenientces' 😊 It's not really what I would call an oven. An upgraded crock pot with a skillet option more like. If you want more of an oven type product then a hot air fryer could be good. I have 2 of the ninja brands with one in our travel trailer as it fits perfect into a space that originally had a microwave in the outside kitchen. I use them a lot. Best to all!
Thanks for the great comment! - J
Thank you.
No thank you! - J
agree, a beep would be nice....also a steam rack would be nice, what's with that?
Yup. Biggest issue I have with it. No medium heat setting. Just high and low
When slow cooking, does it automatically go into keep warm when finished?
Yes it does. Great feature. Marc
My previous comment was in regard to uncooked potato. Thanks!
Would you be able to brown ground beef in this or would it take a long time?
You totally could. Marc
It has a sauté option, which is basically a frying pan on a hob, but without the extra washing up. So yes, you can brown meat in it.
Have an older version Ninja crockpot/slow cooker...still works well. May upgrade ..new style ...ehhh...not a fan how pot sticks up. ..my old one is flush w the base. Like yr reviews are independent 👏
Thanks for the comment! - J
I agree, that is a strange choice/look!
Unm, I think the high temp on a multicooker range is about 250 degrees obove the boiling temp I definitely would turn the bake oven to speed up the browning of my onions you can add a extra 50 or 100 degrees more heat.
👍🏼👍🏼
Avocado oil is great stuff!
Agreed! - J
Great demo
Tho what does broil mean , not heard of it in u.k
Hey thanks for the comment. It’s the top element / burner inside the oven that gets very hot. 500f roughly. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen thank you , so same as grilling
Grilling would be heat from below at various cooking temperatures. Broiling is heat from above, and very hot. - J
@rosipage1606 yes. Apparently the uk term for what we call broiling is grilling. Distinguished from outdoor grilling or barbecuing (as some say) where the food is placed over top of the heat source.
Broiling/ what you call grilling has the heat source directly over the food. Moreover, it is usually at very high temps. Approx 260-288 Celsius.
Is this also good for slow cooking bone broth?
Don’t see why not ! Marc
I use my original Ninja multi cooker that sears, steams, sautes, slow cooks, bakes about 3 times a week. The original lid can not go in the oven. I melted the handle then read the instructions. The original is a 6 quart. I think for way more than 50% of the population, a 6 quart is more appropriate for size. Also most people don't have enough storage room for this new pot. Ninja should go with a 6 and maybe a 4 quart size. My biggest problem is no matter how careful one is with utensils, the interiors do get chipped and scratched. I wish they would go quality stainless instead of non stick. I do love being able to brown my meat then switch to slow cook. One pot is super. If I needed to brown meat in a fry pan then switch to a casserole dish, I would skip the multi cooker because I would not be saving dishwashing. That's their number one selling point...saving clean up!
Thanks so much for the great comment. I agree with all your points. Cheers. Marc
Why cant you deep fry? You can set it to 325 under the bake option. Also what temp is the slow cook.
Maybe you can. Try and let us know. Cheers. Marc
Those potatoes seem pretty thick compared to say regular russet like I see in supermarkets around here (Ohio, US). Your potatoes are rounder than most potatoes I've seen, which tend to be more elongated and oval shaped.
The book may have been written with those longer skinnier potatoes in mind, which may have had something to do with yours being undercooked.
Thanks for the comment. That seems like a reasonable explanation, although they seemed significantly undercooked for the shape to be the only reason. Cheers! - J
Does it have a delayed start option?
I think we addressed that in the video but no, I don't believe it does. - J
Well, if the pot cooking with side heat, bottom heat, and steam which steam is hotter than grease, of course, it going to cut down the time on your entrees, or meal planner.
Thanks for watching! - J
i don't know what it is about these cookers but the pasta comes out perfect. i was scared because i tried a one pot mac and cheese on top of the stove from a recipe and i had to throw it out and rush out to fast food to have dinner for my guys. first time i tried it in the ninjafoodi pressure cooker thing it was perfect aldante and again using a you tube recipe. it is some kind of majic
That's great! - J
Can you cook things like hamburgers or a casserole in this? Thanks.
Casserole 100%. Burgers maybe. Marc
Does the slow cooker act like a crockpot on low? My foodi (pressure cooker) has slow cook function but it's like a true slow cooker on low it would take about 15 hrs to cook, on high it's really fast and usually cooks at 4 hrs so just wondering if this is same? Or can u put something in on low for 8 hrs and have it cook like crockpot?
I would say this functions like a slow cooker and crock pot. However, I found the “high” setting too high, and the “low” setting too low. I wish they would have had a medium setting.
So I stopped using this, and I use the instant crock pot we reviewed. It’s far superior. Marc
What Is The Best Dutch Oven? Instant Precision Dutch Oven Review
ruclips.net/video/kgSI2vjWmIk/видео.html
Can you use the pot on a stove top?
Not 100% sure, but it can go into the oven at 500f. So I would “guess” yes. Marc
It sure looks watery.. the soup or whatever. What is the white stuff.. starch from pasta?
See my reply to your other comment
hi, may i ask how long is the proof?
Unfortunately, we would have no idea about anything when it comes to proofing. - J
Nice embroidery on your hat.
Thank you !! Marc
No score….lol. I went with the Instapot Dutch oven as this just seemed too big for my needs. It was a hard decision, but the cast iron pot won me over. I thought about the Speedi, but I’m more of a one pot/casserole/soup/stew girl. This is next on my list if the Dutch doesn’t work out. Great review.
Thanks so much! - J
How are you liking the ditch oven?... Im deciding between that and this as a gift for my wife for Xmas!
@@DirtNassty I actually love mine. Some people don’t. I don’t think you can go wrong with either but I was in the market for a regular Dutch oven anyway. But honestly I was torn. I know I wasn’t any help. lol. I’m more of a one pot cooker anyhow. Soups, stews, casseroles…so for me it was perfect. I think the ninja one is more versatile but also bigger. So for me it was too much. I don’t cook for a big amount of people. If you have a bigger family or kids or company a lot, the size might be better for you.
@@vernabailey3671 Thanks for your input! I already have the thoughts you mentioned as well! I seen a couple reviews saying the display on your Dutch oven was very dim and hard to read, is that true in your experience?
I love the instant Dutch. We reviewed that too. But the display can be a bit dim. Marc
Great product review. Speculation on the triple heat bit about it being able to cook faster than a regular over? It looks like it heats from both the bottom and the sides. Most ovens generate heat from the bottom (or top if you're using the broiler)... but not from the sides. That's the only thing I can think of. It that's not it, then its purely promotional BS babblespeak from the manufacturer.
They wouldn't do that, now would they?? Lol. - J
Hi. I just received this and mine came with the roasting rack. But no instructions on how to use the roasting rack. Not sure if I should use the bake opt or the slow cook. Anyone know
Interesting question.
Did you get on the Ninja site to see if they had any info? Or contact them directly?
have you tried roasting a beef in it yet? or chicken?
Not yet. But I will !
When making the chicken pot pie, why did you place it in the oven instead of using the “bake” function on the unit? Thank you.
For the purposes of the video, we wanted to test the capability of the pot being able to go into the oven. Thanks for the comment! - J
@@TheAverageKitchen -Thank you, as I have just purchased this product and your video is extremely helpful🤗
Thanks so much! - J
"In the sear/saute it didn't beep." Why would it beep when you didn't set a time. You set it to high, then pressed start. How the Bleep would it know when you wanted it to beep?
Really not sure what ur asking.
Can you fry foods such as fish and chicken thighs using the Possible Cooker? Thank you.
Fry them ? Like in oil ?
@@TheAverageKitchen Yes…or “oven-fried” if that is possible.
I can’t see it to be honest. It’s a slow cooker, so I doubt it would get hot enough. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen Thank you. I just unboxed it and it supposedly replaced several things. There are no instructions how to use it as a Dutch oven, though it states that use on the box. I could not find info online. Any input re: Dutch oven use will be greatly appreciated. The odd thing, when I searched specifically; Ninja Foodie Possible Cooker for frying info, only their air fryers showed up. No info at all on Possible Cooker.
Ok. Geez. Keep us posted !!
I just got this at Sam's for $90. In the states so maybe a new one is coming
That's a great price! - J
To me I’m not sure why anyone would buy this over a Ninja Foodie 14 in one kind of machine. I appreciate you and Jamie showing me this though. Cheers.
I wouldn’t buy it either !! Marc
I bought mine as a replacement for a broken crock pot. What I like about this is that it's much like a traditional crock pot in shape-- its nice to travel to family events -- but can sear & saute as well as slow cook and other functions.
I don't care for the Foodi 14/1 type for bringing meals to share-- risk to breaking & losing parts with travel is much greater and use on a buffet/potluck table is awkward.
Also--8.5 quarts is larger than most crock pots, so spillage/sloshing is less likely than with smaller pots if filled with what you'd put in the smaller pots.
Can this boil pasta?
Highly doubt it. But I never tried. Marc
It’s a stovetop safe pot so you can sauté on stove which may be quicker especially for those lucky enough to have a gas stove top.
Good point! - J
I think when Ninja tests the recipes they count the preheat temp into the recipe. If you start with a hot vessel you are cutting back on actual cooking time. Make sense?
I would agree. Cheers. Marc
I was thinking the exact same thing. That could be why the potatoes weren't cooked through.
Is it an instant cooker also?
No it’s not. Just a slow cooker. Marc
Can it go in the oven with the lid on ?
I believe it can up to 500f. Marc
You sound like you're from Qc with how you said "sous vide" lol
Well. I speak French sooooo lol. Marc
@@TheAverageKitchen ah ben tabarnakkkk!!
😂😂
Kohls has a deal going on Right now (Nov 15, 2023 in AZ, USA) and if you have their card, you can save up to 40% off!
Good deal! - J
My bad: the deal is for 30% off if you use your Kohls card. Also got a coupon on their website for $10 off $50 purchase in “home” dept.
And another one; an extra 20% off total!
These r all on their website. Sorry for any confusion and I love your reviews!
Can you cook rice with it?
Can’t see why not. Marc
Mine came with the rack. I got it at Costco.
Nice !! Marc
Mine came with a rack also. Sam's Club purchasw
Can you cook rice?
I’m guessing yes, but never tried. Marc
Can you bake cake in it
Maybe ? Really not sure. But I doubt it.
Is the baking option on this device only for baking desserts or can you bake meats in it such as chicken etc? I just bought one havent used it yet
You can slow cook roasts / chickens all day long !! Marc
Looking forward to follow up videos with this appliance. Throw the booklet in the trash.
Thanks for the comment and the support. Cheers. Marc
" i am going to follow these recipes to a T...."
*never follows the recipe in the book. lmao
Touché !
can you cook a turkey in it?
Possibly, depending on the size. But I think a traditional oven is the better choice. Marc
Can u make rice ?
Of course you could add rice into a recipe, so I assume you mean making rice on its own. I think you could, but it's not really made for that. Thanks for watching! - J
Should be a rack! Do you have to buy separately? If yes, ninja got greedy!
Yes you would have to. Would be a great feature, disappointing it didn’t come with. Thanks for watching. Marc
My only question is if it can cook rice
I think it "could" cook rice, but not sure you would since it's meant to be a slow cooker. - J
What’s the difference between the pro and the ninja possible cooker?
Great question, but I’m really not sure to be honest. Im sure ninjas website breaks that down. Marc
I would say that you did not cook the soup for 30 minutes. You were adding cold ingredients after you set the timer and Im not sure how much time elapsed, but, you should have set the timer for 30 minutes after you put the lid on. My 2 cents.
Good point. Thanks for watching. Marc
