I have had one of these for about 6 months. Its really great for when you get home from work and want to bbq but dont want to spend an hour waiting for coals to heat up.
Great video Barry, ribs looked awesome! I actually have this as got a deal earlier in the summer with stand and cover for c.£200. Buying the flat plate and making smash burgers has been an absolute bbq game changer, loved by everyone who we’ve made them for, and so highly recommend for anyone thinking of this.
My wife has purchased me one of these for Christmas. I'm so excited. Gonna be outside in the freezing Alabama cold on boxing day I reckon 😂 Great video Barry!
Got one for my birthday and it's great. Especially in places where you can't use charcoal grills. It's often not allowed in germany on balconys so this is a great chance to smoke, grill and so on. I also like it if you grilled and want to make chips on it as side dish. The flavors of the grilled meat will get to your chips or whatever you're making in it.
Ah maybe I will, I wanted to test several functions in one day. My friend has one and did it, it works fine. I wanted to see what the other bits did, it's a good bit of kit
@@mrbarrylewis Did yours come with a temperature probe? This was an amazingly timed review because I've been looking at this for the black friday sales, but a big selling point on the Ninja AU website is that it has a temp probe so you can cook brisket, steaks and roasts to temp rather then time for a perfect cook. I didn't see one in your unboxing though, so you might be missing a bit of kit? If you have one it might be something worth testing if you do follow this up with a longer cook vid.
You have to imagine that before electric and gas stoves people always had smokey flavor in all of the things they cooked and baked (even most beers used to taste smokey), so much so that they actually got so sick of eating smokey food all the time that they invented methods to get rid of smokiness. Nowadays for the novelty of it we actually pay extra for it lol.
I’m a bit of a cheap person and have always wanted a smoker . We recently moved long distance and had to downsize so I threw out my old propane bbq . I was looking at purchasing one of these instead of buying large smoker but instead of that there was a neighbor who put out an old propane bbq for “free” on their front yard. I picked it up flipped the flame diverter over , removed all the propane parts and use the flame diverter as a basket for limp charcoal. I put two foil pans in the bottom . One with charcoal and the other with water to do perfect offset smoked ribs , pulled pork and even a brisket. For you cheap people like me all you have to pay for is the charcoal and wood pellets for extra smoke
One little tip i was reminded of, watching you file your burger lol, if you find, when biting into a burger, it's all going everywhere and sliding apart, try turning the burger the other way up, due to how our bottom jaw hinges, you can find that with the "slippery" ingrediants on the other side, it won't slide about as much when you bite into it.
Hi Barry,my husband bought one about a year ago he loves it cooks food to perfection.better than using the cooker, the pellets are quite dear .enjo your new Ninja wood fire.😊
Don't know if you can find the ripe/red jalapeno peppers but I smoke them whole then dehydrate them, and grind into fresh Chipotle powder. Great in chilli.
The more I watch your channel, the more I realise how many ninja gadgets and exist and how many I want myself! I love their air fryer I have, I really want a creamie and now fear this will join the list of items I want 😢😂
True! I started with one now, I have two ninja air fryers and a tower air fryer. It was soon to be replaced with another Ninja, but this time, the double stack. However, now, seeing this, i may have to rethink 😅
We're very happy with our Traeger Smoker. It may have cost more than the Ninja, but bigger with a much larger pellet hopper. Everything hubby makes on it is amazing! The app on the phone allows him to put on the burgers or steak and then walk away. It will let him know when his food is done.
I do enjoy watching these videos of appliances I’ll never be able to afford 😂 however I would like it if you maybe revisited some of the old playlists like the cheap vs steep and the budget friendly meals, I really enjoyed the last cheap vs steep where you revisited an old recipe, maybe a few more of those
Thanks, i'm hoping to stay that way really, maybe there's a couple of brands i'd want to do things with but they aren't food ones so unlikely to happen
Yeah sponsors would not allow message about melting official stand in normal use :D But yeah I agree personal reviews are always better, even when they are not 100% objective at least they are not superficial.
We love using our woodfire grill in the summer. Corn on the cob is delish. I also smoked a whole chicken and it was probably the juciest chicken we've ever had.
Super fun! Love that you call it Ginger too 😄👍 Definitely sounds like a budget one might be better. Also that review where it was on fire is pretty scary 😬
I use mine all year round. So great and hassle free! For some reason they are selling the British ones with a 10ma RCD on when they should have a 30ma RCD.Just swap out with the correct RCD. This can be done by unscrewing, so won't void any warranty etc; as you can replace it if you ever need to claim. Mine never trips now.
Barry, just a note...Check your instructions for this. The instructions for our air fryer say do NOT use an extension lead because the power may short out! Might be what happened there? Enjoyed the vid!
My air fryer says the same thing, and while that's only a slight annoyance in the kitchen it seems like a pretty big design flaw for an outdoor unit, especially one with such a short cord. My front garden only has one socket, and you couldn't put this thing in range of it because it's right next to windows and covered by an awning (so smoke would just go right into the house). Maybe a heavier duty extension lead? Something designed for higher wattages, seeing as it's 2400 watts? I've seen like 20 amp rated extension leads for caravans when I've been camping, so something like that perhaps.
Pretty much all "small" appliance instructions now say this. The reason is that most people don't understand electrical wiring and issues created by running to much power on too small of a conductor. Basically if your device is running too many watts through ANY sort of cable and that cable is 'too long' or 'too thin' then at best you pop a breaker, but at worst you set fire to the cable. A proper thicc extension will handle the load fine, but most people don't even own one unless they do welding / woodwork / construction / etc. The reason the cable for the device is so short is that the resistance on the cable is so low at that short length, that they can use very thin conductors without risk of malfunction or fire, which costs them less to manufacturer, and firmly puts the blame on you for not following the instructions when you use an extension cord
seems like this would be perfect for one of those solar powered camper vans, rather than messing with actual fire/coals. and get the "cooking over a fire" vibe while in the great outdoors
I have the XL Pro version that has an app. Love it! Sadly it does smoke more than I thought, and since I live in an apartment building it caused complaints (used it outside on my terrace) . :( BTW; there is such a thing as an indoor smoker. GE Indoor Smart Smoker. Sorted Food did a review on it.
Hot plate on the base only comes on during Grill mode. All the other modes use the element built into the lid next to the fan, so you could have put your cupcakes on the base without worrying about heat from underneath being too hot
" the bottom heating element is only used on the "Grill" setting. No other cooking function uses the bottom element. Also, for Grill, the top heating element *is* on, when the lid is closed. The top element turns off when the lid is opened, but the bottom element remains on. Roast and Air Crisp use a high fan speed and are essentially the same function, though the temperature presets and range are different. Bake uses a lower fan speed. For all three of those, only the top heating element is on. ".
I love everything about this… except for the price. I’d love to have a full Barbecue/Smoker combo, but it’s not an option. This seems like a perfect compromise that doesn’t need to live outside.
Barry, I love you bud but why not just drag the thyme though a garlic press hole, it would save you so much thyme stripping it! - Keep up the awesome videos dude!
Some times the smoke is too much. It is better to let it ignite and burn off before adding food, gets bitter. You do not have to fill the hopper for short cooks, works better for long cooks, full grill. I suspect person whose table lit on fire that there were too many pellets left smoldering, if they left lid open that could be another error. That hopper gets scorching hot and embers keep burning until nothing left. I agree, that flipping cord is way too short and impractical. Cooking times in the ginga cookbooks are way off. Jalapeno poppers are awesome in it.
Ninja will recommend using their own pellets so if anything go wrong it wouldn't validate their warrant after the warranty runs out it's up to the person choices
One reason why it tells you to put the food in later is because the first (white) smoke when the chips are being ignited is considered to be 'bad smoke' since it often imparts harsh, bitter off-flavours. Thick smoke is bad, thin smoke is good.
DO NOT use extension leads, it's a high wattage device and could cause a fire by overloading the extension. Move the table closer to the outlet. I'm surprised it doesn't have a continue after power cut function. And now for balance you need to get an Instant Pot.
I'm going to be honest, when I first heard you call it a "ginger" product on the Creamy video I kind of just assumed it was a Britishism to refuse to say words properly.
Hey Barry great video, but top tip don't put the food in until the ignition sequence prompts you to as the initial ignition can cause an unpleasant acrid smoke that makes the food taste rank. I have both this and the outdoor pizza ovens and both are fantastic bits of kit
The powercut part is the bit that gets me the most, I can understand people wanting the experience of smokey barbecued food but without all the mess of charcoal ash and whatnot, but, if a powercut mucks it all up, that just seals the deal for me, charcoal all the way in my world (but then, I'm always biased towards real fire, that and I also have several large sacks of lumpywood charcoal I got cheap from the same place I got them large this of tomatoes!)... :P

They do sell starchy water as a product, it's used for ironing to help keep creases in clothes (like trouser creases)
Thank you for confirming you bought this yourself and this isn't a sponsored advert. Sponsored stuff is rueing youtube.
They gotta pay their bills somehow
Thanks, i'm hoping to stay that way really, maybe there's a couple of brands i'd want to do things with but they aren't food ones so unlikely to happen

I thought RUclipsrs were supposed to warn when it's paid advertisement, is that gone now?
This looks super interesting Barry!!
Smokin'!
I'm 100% sure they don't show all the negative reviews on their website.
Those potato wedges,burgers & rids looked delicious 😋Not sure about the cupcake 🧁🤔Great review and thanks for sharing Barry 🤗👍

@mrbarrylewis np
Wonder if you can cold smoke with it to make smoked cocktails...? 🤔
You should pay better attention. He said it could cold smoke at the 21:17 mark in the video.
Do you know what Barry , smoked chocolate could be a thing . We saw it here first 👀 I’m calling dragons den 🍫💯🤣👍🏼
Waited till after summer to test the ninja bbq I love it 😂😂
My 3 year old was watching with me. When it came to the eating of the burger he asked, why does he not have a plate? 😂
This looks tempting. I have a smoker and a bbq, but if I'm cooking for one person, this would be much easier.
You’re right about indoors without the smoke function Barry.
Yes it's the Carbon Monoxide that is the problem.
Yeah, just don't use the wood pellets and I reckon it would be fine, but then it defeats the point of using it I guess
@ Son’s a chef and uses loads for family meals without the pellets, outside with (British weather NOT permitting!) Makes amazing pizza too.
Thanks for the reviews.
I was feeling the cold…. Very comprehensive video… Who else would do smoked cupcakes…lol. I wish you would have done a smoked pizza!!!
6:27 they do sell starchy water!!! You use it to iron shirts etc, you spray it on to get crisp creases (no pun intended!)
I would love to smoke a turkey breast. My personal favorite is pecan. It’s a sweet and fairly strong wood but is definitely worth trying.
I use mine all year round. So great and hassle free! For some reason they are selling the British ones with a 10ma RCD on when they should have a 30ma RCD.Just swap out with the correct RCD.

Love the video! I was entertained to see how long it would take for the vinegar to be wiped off the lense haha
Love the vids super entertaining and informative! Have you looked in to cosori any, mate?
Were you able to taste the different flavors of pellets or did they both taste the same?
In the US this grill has gone on sale at Costco for around 200 dollars.
dunno what the people who melted the stand did but we rest ours on a plastic table when we use ours and it gets warm at best

Great review! Would love to see a review on the Karinear Pellet Barbecue Grill It's £149 on Amazon and should run of a power bank when camping.
seems like this would be perfect for one of those solar powered camper vans, rather than messing with actual fire/coals. and get the "cooking over a fire" vibe while in the great outdoors
When will the studio reveal be?
think you should get a METAL stand for it just in case I would be worried about fire risk on a picnic table
Sorted Food once did a gadget review for an indoor smoker, if I remember this correctly...🤔
I'd like to try the shush one

GE makes an indoor smoker. They are $1000 but Amazon (US) has them for $594 right now.

Since I use my toaster oven to make pizza. I'd be interested to see this make one.
Wee need to see roast potatoes in it !!! Or a Christmas dinner for 1
they do sell dehydrate starchy water... its called potato starch powder.
btw that's one anaemic power cord.
Why is there a snow leopard on the top of your kitchen cupboard at 3:06
So how many times are you going to use that in a year in the UK
Dill will make cream taste like Ranch Dressing! 😋
Did you push the ignite button to see if it'd turn off the ignite?🤷♀️🤔🤷♀️
The potato water can be used to make bread deliciously and moist. As well, it can be used as a thickener that is naturally gluten-free.
Using metal tongs on non-stick cookware is a war crime Barry 😮

Its great if you have a smal garden or balcony.
Ginger is a redhead. NINJA is an ancient Japanese assassin, or a food appliance!😁😁
You need to checkout the GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker , I am a owner of one and yes you can smoke indoors!
As you complain about UK weather, over here in the US I am currently obliterated with snow, I feel exactly your pain...

It looks like a redesigned Ninja foodie with a spot for wood pellets. I like my foodie but it is not without downfalls, like most small appliances.
That burger!
In Finnish sauna they whack each other with herbs😆, so whacking a barbecue isn't that crazy.
That's amazing lol
Do the Slushi, looks cool!
I also found it was very sharp underneath and it scratched surfaces very easily ☹️☹️
Ninja will recommend using their own pellets so if anything go wrong it wouldn't validate their warrant after the warranty runs out it's up to the person choices
One reason why it tells you to put the food in later is because the first (white) smoke when the chips are being ignited is considered to be 'bad smoke' since it often imparts harsh, bitter off-flavours. Thick smoke is bad, thin smoke is good.
Don't they sell starchy water in dehydrated form? 🤔
Will ask my son to try making porchetta in his.
I know you’re calling them ginja but you should listen to Tim Minchin’s Prejudice. It is seriously funny
Yeah, it seems decent enough but if I was into this, I'd get a pizza oven as that would be the main thing I'd cook.

DO NOT use extension leads, it's a high wattage device and could cause a fire by overloading the extension. Move the table closer to the outlet.
