I can hardly wait til I get my grill ! Coming on Thurs. I've been watching your videos, to get aquainted with the Maxx Grill and the recipes . Good job , Andy, they are very helpful !
Congrats on getting the grill version! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Thank you so much for the kind thoughts and for tuning in to my channel. Totally appreciate you!
Thank you for this grilling experience showcasing the Kalorik Max Grill, I started my day by calling the Kalorik company about their earlier model that I had for three years now, and all was well till I went to open the door to bake some mini muffins and the French door wouldn’t open, the mechanism that opens them was jammed up or something. I called Kalorik customer service only to find out there wasn’t much they could do for since it’s past 1 yr warranty but they said that they had a video they can send about the door issue.. I gave my email to send it, but after viewing, it wasn’t helpful at all. So now I have a perfectly working Kalorik but can’t use it because I can’t open doors wide enough to get the bake pan out which is totally at the bottom which isn’t good because most things will burn easily in that area. I called HSN to see if I had protection plan, I didn’t😢 I explained what happened to it and how last year I was about to buy another one but since I know that there’s door issues I’m not so sure I will.. she said “I think that we happened to have the Kalorik on sale as “ today deal” at $159.99…plus a $15.00 coupon off that but today only. Of course despite my disappointment about my last Kalorik oven, I just couldn’t pass up this great deal!!! I went online and it surprised me that it wasn’t the same one I had but it was a new and improved one with the Grill feature! I gladly ordered one that will arrive by 3/26/23 I can’t wait to try out mine. Hope I have the same success grilling chicken and steaks as you did with yours. And I certainly will be more careful with those doors now that I know how delicate & sensitive that they are!😂😂
You are very welcome Denise. Thanks so much for checking out my channel. I have heard of others having issues with the doors jamming up. That is unfortunate for sure. That's awesome that you have the grill version coming your way. That is a great deal for sure. The only thing that I have learned since getting the device is when grilling chicken or steak it is best to cook the pieces 5 minutes per side. If the meat is not up to temperature I move it into the AF basket, remove the grill, turn on oven/bake mode at 450 and let it continue until the meat reaches temperature. If you don't already have one an in oven temperature probe is highly recommended.
I'm digging the new set up. Maybe it's not new, I'll have to check out some of your other latest vids. Looks like you got alot more space to work. Are you still at your house?
Hey Shawn, thank you so much for tuning in! I am still at the same house. I have to move out by September although I'm aiming for August 1st. The new location will have a very nice kitchen.
I just got one of these as a gift at Christmas, and I'm very excited to use it. The only thing that irks me is that there's nothing I can put under the grill to prevent food from dripping juices on the bottom of the oven...It would be nice to not have to wipe that everytime. Have you figured out a solution to this since it says we should not use foil paper in the device?
I hope you enjoy your new device. It should never drip on the bottom of the oven. It should drip onto the crumb tray that sits on the bottom of the oven. It's difficult to get everything off the crumb tray if not next to impossible. I have heard of people wrapping the tray in foil but since it is against the manufacturer's recommendations it is not something that I ever do. One thing I will say is after you cook almost anything whether it's on the grill or otherwise it is of the utmost importance to wipe the walls and back down inside of the oven with something like Dawn power wash. Reason being is if you let it go beyond one cook the next time you cook it really polymerizes and is very difficult to get off.
@@susanhenderson2322 when you are using the grill grate nothing will drip on the heating elements because the grill grate completely covers the heating elements . When not using the grill the black drip pan should be positioned in a slot above the heating elements to protect them.
@@TheFoodExperience I ended up buying the max air fryer I believe it’s the other design all stainless with the buttons not the digital version and I haven’t cooked anything yet but I’m liking the look so far 👌
Thank you very much! That's definitely a very good question. I'm thinking it could probably work. I have one cast iron piece that I just may try it out with. I'm thinking if I heat up the grill with the cast iron on the grill then once it is preheated just crack the egg in the skillet as usual. In theory it sounds good. The only concern that comes to mind is the air frying fan. Since the grill is at the bottom maybe it won't affect it so much. Otherwise the eggs are going to run.
I am wanting one of these,so far I really like this one. What about different types of potatoes and breakfast foods, like eggs bacon hashbrowns, toast etc.
I bought this air fryer and was happy with it while it worked. Used it for approximately 2 months and it just stopped working. Less than 20 uses, poor quality so now Im in search of a replacement, leaning toward the Aria 36
Sorry to hear you did not have good success with the device. My original Grill has been working for about a year now and the second one for at least half a year now with no issues at all. Not sure what the issue is.
@@sadie4me2 totally understand and while it may seem there are a bunch of people that have issues they're at least 10 times that many that have no issues. I think it's something to do with possibly the electricity in combination with environmental factors but I honestly cannot be certain. You may want to try a different brand since you are one of the people that is experiencing the issue.
The grill grate has cutouts on the underneath side that wrap around the heating elements to protect them. When used as a grill that crumb trade is the drip pan.
Was shocked to see E4 come up when we were cooking a pizza (we've done one before without issue). It stopped and we had to unplug it as we couldn't do anything with it. Any ideas what that meant?
The only thing I could see in regards to error code E4 refers to voltage too low. Try another outlet if possible. If the problem still exists you probably need to get ahold of the manufacturer.
They really operate about the same however I really like the addition of the grill. Steaks come out perfect on it every time. If you're not too concerned with the grilling function then you will save money by getting the regular Maxx.
I let the oven come up to 500 first, but grilling still hasn't been what I expect. No dark grill marks, and I'm not getting I've been using pork shoulder/butt. Plenty fatty. It comes out tender enough, but the fat just doesn't seem to liquify.
I'm not sure why that would be so long as you are doing everything the same way I am doing in this demonstration. The only things I could mention are the obvious like making sure the grill grate is installed the correct way where the cutouts on the bottom are covering the heating elements properly. Also making sure that you are in Grill mode and not steak mode. So long as those check out and you are preheating like you mentioned then I really don't have an answer.
I apologize for the late reply and hopefully you have it figured out by now. RUclips never gave me the notification about your comment. To adjust the time or temperature during cooking you just press the selector dial. It will first go to the time and second press it will go to the temperature.
I like peanut oil because it is in neutral flavored oil and handles high heat very well. Other oils like vegetable oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, avocado oil and a couple others can be used as well since they are neutral and handle high heat. Anything except olive oil is my rule of thumb.
Could be a couple things. There could be something wrong with your device if it is new. Also it depends on what you are cooking, the temperature you are cooking it at and which accessories you are using. I really need to know more information. At least one example including product being cooked, time, temp, if you preheated first, what accessories were used and what slots.. please let me know.
@@thedarkalpha8755 oh right on, congrats on the new device! Were you grilling the burgers? Burgers should be cooked anywhere from 350 to 370°. Above that and you definitely will get smoke. I think the burger grease won't smoke till about 400.
How is the smell when cooking? It’s supposed to be odorless and smokeless. Need something for hotel rooms. I travel for business and a smelly room will cost heavy cleaning fees
It is fairly odorless but not absolutely odorless. As far as smokeless goes that all depends on what you are cooking. For instance if you are cooking chicken, chicken fat has a smoke point of 380°. If you cook the chicken higher than that temperature then you will have smoke. Generally speaking I do not notice smoke when I cook but I am very mindful about what I am cooking and what temperatures I am cooking them at.
The Gap is there intentionally for ventilation purposes. There is no loss of temperature near that area. I have completely tested it with a temperature probe. If you have an OCD issue then maybe that would be a concern.
@@kaycoffey3368 I honestly have not cooked a leg quarter on the grill. I will say that when I cook chicken on the grill I try to stay at around 380 degrees to avoid the chicken fat causing smoke which will happen if it's cooked too hot. Make sure the grill has completed the preheat. I recommend cooking the chicken five minutes on one side and then flip it over. After 5 more minutes you should hit it with an instant-read thermometer to see where it is at. I have a feeling it won't quite yet be 165 degrees. If it is not yet at 165° then cook it the remainder of the way until it has reached 165 degrees. Put the chicken in either the bake tray or air fryer basket into the regular airfryer slot. Turn on air fry mode at 380 degrees and probe it every so often until it reaches. Hopefully you have an instant-read thermometer or similar.
Agreed, most everything is better cooked in cast iron or on a cast iron flat top griddle. Although I will say the grill on this air fryer does a wonderful job. It's not like regular air fried meat.
This is not a review of cast-iron versus air fryer. This is a review of the equipment and how it is used. If you want to comment that has nothing to do with this review, then go find some other RUclips channel.
I tend to use 360. But really trips me out is a lot of people cook it at 400 or higher which is too hot when air fried. 400° is great in a pan or a flat top.
I was using corn that has already been shucked from the market. Worked just fine and the corn was super tasty. Had a nice crisp crunch but yet super juicy inside.

How come no drip pan under the grill plate for the steak? I would think the fat from the steak would get all over the heating elements.

Why over cook the meat?
What is overcooked for you may not be overcooked to the next person. Different strokes for different folks if you catch my drift.
