    Good tip on putting the temp probe in the smaller / thinner cut of meat first and then if necessary into the thicker item to finish cooking it. I have seen advice to put it into the thickest first but I fear that means my meat will overcook for my tastes.

    Thank you for your valuable tips... Instead of oil I use home-made Ghee that also has a high smoke point... but it is made from butter and has a nutty delicious taste... It is easy to make and keeps up to 50 years. I never use commercial Ghee that has additives and tastes awful...

  • @jbirdyhome-4050
    @jbirdyhome-4050 Год назад +2

    There are electrical/heating contacts on the bottom/back of the grill pan (the little square panel) so at the very least the foil or parchment should be cut on that square to allow the lower heating element to operate properly. Of course if you are using the unit in any other mode besides grill or griddle, then the upper heating element is the only one in operation. If you mean to protect the lower griddle tray while using bake, dehydrate, air fry, etc., then I guess it doesn't matter if the contacts are covered up.

    Question - I got my Foodi today, tried the airfryer, seemed OK. Later grilled 2 steaks. It said 'take food' so I took the food out. There was something about resting the food? I ignored all that and pressed the power button to turn it off. It said OFF and everything went dark. But 3 hours later I noticed it was still very hot?? Not so hot I could not touch it, but nearly so, like it was trying to keep food hot or something? Did I goof or is the machine faulty?

      Yes, insert the thermometer all the way into the meat and then place the meat in the grill and cloae the hood all the way down; you will not damage the cord. It may take cooking a few different times with didferent "doneness" settings before you find your favorite, but the settings are pretty accurate to the finished product. If you have a slice of meat that is a bit thicker at one end than the other, try to get the tip of the probe in the middle of the two ends.

    If you line the tray with foil, you eliminate the whole efficient way the Ninja Grill cooks...with air flow, not a good idea. This grill was made to be easily cleaned, foil is an unnecessary tip.

    • @NightTimeMommyReviews
      @NightTimeMommyReviews  3 года назад +10

      Hi Rebecca, lining the base pan with aluminum foil wouldn't affect the air flow as the heating element/fan is on the top of the unit. The air circulates with the fan. If you lined the air fryer basket this would be correct, however lining the base pan will maintain the air flow. Hope this helps.
