Ninja Foodi 2 Basket Air Fryer DEMO and REVIEW

- LINK to Ninja Foodi 2 Basket Air fryer: amzn.to/3bmN56F Hi Guys, today I’m reviewing the Ninja Foodi 2 Basket Air Fryer. With regular airfyers you can only cook one type of food at a time. With this Ninja, you can cook two foods at the same time since there are 2 separate baskets. Each basket holds 4 qts and comes with crisper plates. Cook food in both baskets at the same time or just one basket.
I’ve got potatoes peeled and cut up to make fries. They’ve been sitting in water for 30 minutes. I’m also going to make pork chops. These are boneless and I’ve put them in salt water so they’ll be juicy. It’s best to put them in brine because they do tend to dry out quickly. To my plain breadcrumbs, I’ll add salt, oregano, rosemary thyme, mix that up. To another plate, add all purpose flour and ground black pepper. Crack an egg, salt and pepper. Whisk that up. Take the pork chops out of the brine and put them on a paper towel lined plate. Pat them dry. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, Rub the seasonings into the meat, turn over and season the other side. Dip each chop into the flour, then the egg, let the excess drip off and then the breadcrumbs. Both baskets have the crisper plates in them. I’ll put the chops in one basket. 4 small chops will fit in a single layer. Slide the basket into the left side of the unit. The potatoes go into the second basket. I’m cooking one lb of cut up potatoes. I’ve patted them dry and tossed them 1 tbsp of vegetable oil. Slide that into the right side. Press power, 1 is illuminated, I’ll choose airfry, set the temperature to 390 and the time to 15 minutes. Press 2, airfry, temperature is 390 and set the time to 20 minutes for the fries and press start. Like most airfryers, this unit sounds like a fan. I’ll press pause so I can turn over the chops and shake the fries. It’s best to do this with most things you airfry. Turn over the chops, use silicone tipped tongs that won’t scratch the surface. The breadcrumbs look pale because I didn’t brush them with any oil. I’ll brush the other side with oil. You don’t have to but that little bit of oil will give the chops a golden brown color. Put the chops back in. Shake the fries up and Press start to resume cooking. The chops are done. The fries will continue to cook. Take the chops basket out. Press pause, Shake the fries and press start. The temperature is 165 and 170 for the chops. The current guidelines say to cook pork chops to 145 for rare to 160 for well done. So if you want it at 145, check the chops at 12 minutes. I used boneless chops that are not thick so they cook quickly. The breading is crispy. The meat is juicy and not dried out although the temperature was above the recommended 160 for well done. Definitely brine boneless chops, it’s the key to keeping them juicy. The fries are done, cool will be displayed and then END. They are cooked but most are not crispy. I’ll cook them for 5 more minutes. I’m cooking more fries in the first basket that’s why the timer is running. 5 minutes are up and the fries look more golden now and they are crispier. So 25 minutes is good for fries.
13 minutes for onion rings 20 minutes for tatertots.
Here are some other things I’ve cooked in this Ninja. I’m reheating fried chicken...and yes it’s popeyes. I used the reheat function at 350 degrees and set the time to 15 minutes. After 7 minutes, the internal temperature was already at 125. I moved all the chicken to one basket and added fries and biscuits to the other basket. 7 more minutes and everything was hot and crispy. When I reheat in my average toaster oven, not high end, it takes longer and the inside of the chicken is never as hot.
Here, I’m toasting frozen waffles using the airfry function at 400 degrees for 3 minutes. Turned them over and cooked for 2 more minutes. They were perfectly cooked. Really quick breakfast with homemade blueberry sauce. These are frozen breaded fish fillets, airfry function at 400 degrees and 10 minutes per side. Sorry I don’t have a finished picture but they were golden brown and crispy. In my toaster oven these would have taken 30 minutes instead of 20. I could have actually pulled them at around 16 minutes but I like them really toasty. It is definitely a time saver because it cooks faster than a standard oven and some toaster ovens.

I think this is the best reviewer on RUclips very fluent and straightforward 👏
Thanks so much 😉
Very well explained. For once this was about the product not about look at me me me!!
Glad you liked it 😁
I just bought this unit,Im going to use it tonight for the first time.Thankyou for this brilliant video.Cheers!Liked and subscribed.Thankyou again.
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you! 🎉 you are amazing. I needed this I bought one two days ago I was struggling how to use it.
You are so welcome!
Worth bearing in mind when thinking about the cooking time, it may seem like only slightly less time than a conventional oven, but you eliminate the pre-heating time which with my NEFF can be up to 10 mins if I don't use the boost function. Extremely important to note when thinking about running costs!
Love the way you describe how the ninja works. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I am absolutely obsessed with mine! I love love love it.
This is one of the most organized and thorough reviews I have seen, especially for this product, which I just bought.
Glad you liked it 😉
Your reviews are the absolute best on RUclips!! Your voice is pleasant to the ear! Clear concise presentation!
Thanks so much 😀
I purchased a Ninja Max Dual 9.5 L AF for 2+ months , wish to learn more from an experienced person like yourself. Thank you for your professional advice , demo, review and recipes. Cheers !!
Glad to help 😀
Already have one, and love it! Still learning how all the functions work, but am more than pleased so far.
I have seen several reviews This is, hands down the best one by far
I just got this today, it’s my first air fryer (I’ve never even used one before) and I can’t wait to use it tomorrow when I get home from work. I’m hoping to like it because I stopped frying about 10-12 years ago because i wanted my family to eat healthier and I didn’t want to deal the mess and disposal of oil. Fingers crossed that everything will go well.
Thanks for sharing 😁
Update?
She's busy munching;)
Hands down best review ever 🙌. I'm looking to purchase a new airfryer, but I was torn between the corsori or the dual ninja. Everyone just loves the corsori but what made me watch your wonderful review was. You stated you can air fry a meal at the same time prefect. One question for you do you feel like the exterior is plastic and it should be steel. I looked at it in the store and wasn't sure. Sorry so long but this was the best review I seen so far for this airfryer.
Me bachelor..need food...Ninja good...me dumb...fries good
I own this 8 qt air fryer since May, it’s the best air fryer ever!!! been using it since I got it, now I just have to wait and see how many months or years before it breaks but hoping it’ll last for yearssss
Thanks for sharing 😁
Do you have to flip the food over as well?
These insightful gifts generously offered, most assuredly, after watching this video, I/we feel nurtured by the thoughtfulness gifted from this entity.
Thank you
This was a lot of fun to watch,. Thanks for making it. Mine is coming in 2 days, so of course I'm super curious and excited.
Great review and instructions! I already bought one at Costco on sale before I saw this but watching your review helped me feel I made a good decision for my needs.
Want to get a air fryer after I get my instant pot, I will probably be getting this , crazy that I saw this on the top 100 while just browsing Amazon then I see this video, so informative and straight to the point as a upcoming air fryer noob lol I think I understand most things now
Glad it was helpful 😁
I have one of these; can't imagine anyone serious about dehydrating fooling with this thing. Each side holds about 1 sliced banana--for a bunch of hours! Fortunately, I have a real dehydrator that's not only easier to use, but has a realistic capacity. Great review here-
I know this is an old comment, but for anyone reading this unit does dehydrate fairly well. You can buy stackable mesh trays (Amazon) that'll fit in each drawer, 3 levels each for a total of 6, and dehydrate much more fruit or jerky than trying to just lay a single layer in the bottom of each basket.
🤤🤤🤤 (pork chops)
Anita, great review 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I couldn’t figured out this air fryer an l was getting frustrated 🥺
You saved the day… and I am keeping the air fryer.
Thank you for sharing this information 🙏🏻❤️
Glad it was helpful 🤩
Great review with a lot of details often overlooked by others. I just ordered my unit on Amazon because of your review.
Thanks 🙏
It looks so very complicated. Got it last Friday for the family. Step kids know how to use it from being at their grandparents house. Wife figured it out though I told her that she had to use it before which didn't make her happy lol! Family said they will teach me though it looks hard to use. I would return it but family wouldn't be happy with me
Definitely the best review so far. Thank you Anita, you're a star.
Thanks 😁
Great review! Would’ve liked to see you do a whole chicken. Can’t tell if it is big enough. Thanks.
Excellent review and instructions! I have the original Ninja Foodie XL and I’m definitely buying this💕
Awesome! Thank you!

GREETINGS FROM THE NETHERLANDS
Absolutely the best information about this air fryer! Thank you for posting! Do you have a recipe book?
I just bought this air fryer last week. This will be a big help when I use it the first time. Thanks!
Would you recommend it?
I ordered the 10 quart unit the other day and your presentation was a great introduction!!! Thanks
Glad you liked it 😀
Wow you're very informative You're definitely my go-to person
Thanks 🤩
Ehh... it's really nothing to write home about. I have this and about 3 other Ninja Airfryers including the Foodie and XL oven. On this dual 8qt basket .. the baskets are VERY SMALL. if i wanted to cook a couple of pieces of fish I can only do about 3 pieces in each bin. That includes using the racks. They have a NEWER dual basket which can hold up to a 6lb chicken in each basket. It's a 10quart. I may be interested in that... both the 8qt and 10qt have 1690 watts. I dont know why Ninja would make a larger basket using the same wattage. So that's something to consider as well. I wanted to love this but.. it's just too small.
Hey, thanks for pointing out the size difference.
First! And I've been shopping for this, you've read my mind!🤯🤯
🤩
Please can you make a video for how to bake cake in the Ninja foodie 2 basket air fryer next .🙏🇺🇲
Thanks for this. I really learned a lot!
Wonderful 😁
what a great video. well done! Thanks for doing this. Just got mine today!😜
Thanks 🙏
I thought yo uhad to set the one side to finish the same as the other instead of the chops cooking first ,the chips would be done the same time .
I couldn't help wondering why you/she didn't utilise the ability to have things finish at the same time being as this is one of the good features of this air fryer?
Thought that too! That’s what the sync button is for or the match button if it’s the same food your cooking in the two trays.
That’s what I was thinking. By the time the chips (fries) were cooked, the chops must have been cold 😐
Meat needs resting time, that’ll be why
Interesting helpful video thanks, you mention frozen food would set to low heat to start for few minutes then increase the temperature when the food is warmed through or set normal temperature. Have you or will put video on the Ninja 400
Thank you so much I just bought it.
Enjoy 😉
great review! thank you
Yes
I wonder how the upper of the air fryer to be cleaned?
How about cleaning the upper element part of the fryer? I assume that the fan blows oil up into the ceiling part of the basket zone.
Only 805 views in 1 day!? Your 105k subscribers need to step it up!
Preheat, preheat, preheat. Just a little advice. Your food will be much crisper:) awesome video, very informative on this model
Thanks for sharing 😀
Please tell me how to preheat this air fryer! I’ve looked everywhere!
@@TennesseeYaya just get it up to temp then throw the food in there. Easiest case scenario run for four minutes, turn off unit throw food in and restart so its already hot inside. But all preheat is just that, heat unit before throwing in the goods :)
Bro I got mine today and made Chicken it was hella good 👍🏻
Great presentation, unfortunately, they were sold out on Amazon I did add it to my shopping list thank you for reviewing 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Thanks 🙏
HSN has it.
Go to Cosco
Thank you!
Thanks for great information
Thank you for reviewing this item, well explained and informative,; furthermore, thank you for saving me from the reading of instructions 😆😅
Glad it was helpful 😁
Excellent video...thank you.
You’re welcome 😀
I also gently wipe around the top of fryer not the elements you'll be surprised.
Very helpful. Thank you
You’re welcome 😁
Hello. Could you do a comparison between the 5 in 1 foodie grill vs this unit?
Hello!👋
Thank you for this excellent video!
Can you please do one more using the dehydrate feature to see how fruit like apples came out????
Pleaseeeeeee🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
No one covers what the bake fuction does or how to use it. Seams like it changes the speed of the fan but everything else is same.
Just curious - is there a reason why you're not using the smart finish function? It's supposed to insure both items finish at the same time.
nice review . thanks for sharing
sending my love and support from philippines 🥰🥰🥰🥰✨✨✨✨
Can someone tell me how to switch from Fahrenheit to Celsius on this model please?
Hi, it’s not possible to make the change on this model.
I got this one yesterday and one side stopped working, only the fan works but the heat doesn’t.
So instant pot has a dual one as well...havent seen any videos comparing the two of them as yet
do you have a video on reheating fully cooked burger meat [beef or turkey] and heating frozen raw turkey burgers
Can u make jacket potatoes in this and if so what temp should i use and for how long and what temp to air fry chips and how long, sorry ive only just got mine today so i dont know any help i would appriciate it thank you.
The best reviewer. Thanks.
Thank You 😊
How do you make freanchtoast
French toast???
???
Wish they start making all size silicon pan for every New Ninja Cooker or Air fryer they made.👍♥️🇺🇸🦅🇲🇺🦤
I hope so too!
There is another type of air Fryer that has 2 baskets! It’s the Instant Vortex!
Would anyone be able to change the unit of degree of cooking from faranheit to celcius?
Can you only cook junk food in an air fryer
How's cleaning? I have a Cuisinart (had it for several years). It works good, but it is a royal pain to clean.
Excelent video, thank you. To use only one basket, how do I program to turn off or disable the basket that is not going to be used, to avoid unnecessary energy consumption? Thank you
Its default mode is set to 'off' you have to turn it on to cook rather than turn it off to disable it. I hope that makes sense.
Great video! Now I feel ready to give it a try. Question...are those labels on either side of display supposed to stay there or am I supposed to remove them?
Keep them there, why take them off? It's there to help you so you don't need to keep reverting to the booklet every time you cook something.
It looks cleaner without them...but that is the OCD coming out in me. They do serve as a quick reminder.
Aren't the too baskets are supposed to finish cooking at the same time ??
Only if you want them to and program them that way. It's really flexible.
Is it normal to hear a ticking type noise, every 30 seconds or so, similar to an flat top stove burner heating up? Doesn't sound like a fan issue noise. Just curious.
Do these things not show when it’s preheating?
hello, your nija air fryer has food description and temp when i click on the amazon site i dont see that on the box. Is it a different machine.
how well does the dehydrate function work? definitely a cool feature if it does a good job
Why don't you use the smart finish?
I ordered mine off Amazon….I did not get the timing chart or the recipe book😩😩
❤❤❤❤❤
