- My all-time favorite way to cook whole chicken...I've used this method for years on my Big Green Egg and have a couple of videos posted of that but the Ninja Grill surprised me at how well and how simple it makes cooking a whole chicken...thanks to my subscribers...jaytracks and Dave Marione for suggesting it and being the inspiration for this video...which was to find out what the largest whole chicken that could be done on the Foodi Grill. Love y'all all!!!

Thank you I'm doing this today. I'll let you know how it turns out.
It is my favorite way to cook chicken... let me know what you think and thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders i had 3lb bird turned pretty good. I don't have a pro but using my thermometer it took about 40 mins.
Thanks... glad to hear that... thanks for trying the recipe and sharing your results!!
gotta go... my mouth is watering.
Excellent!
I bought a Ninja Grill some weeks ago, partly or mostly after watching your videos. Its been sitting on my counter top looking all shiny and new. Until yesterday all I had done was stand close to it, stare admiringly and lift the lid a few times. Which I found strangely satisfying. Yesterday for first time use I roasted a whole chicken. At just over 3lb it fitted in nicely (without being spatchcockef). I poured a Lille olive oil, rubbed in chicken season and a little jerk seasoning. Roasted breast side down for 15 minutes then flipped for 20 minutes or thereabouts. It was so tasty and juicy. What surprised me was not a lot of juice in the pan when finished cooking and what there was seemed to be burnt. I thought here we go let’s get scrubbing but no just a quick wipe with a cloth and it was clean. Amazing!
TLDR Ninja Grill is amazing. Easy to use, produces lovely food and is so easy to clean.
BTW Love your videos Keep ‘em coming
I have always been impressed with ninja's ceramic coating... it always cleans up easier than I expect... your recipe and method sounds really good...thanks for sharing that and thank you for watching!!!
Excellent video presentation for the Ninja Foodi Pro Grill to prepare Spatchcocked Chicken on the indoor grill! Thanks John Sanders aka jelly007!
Thank you and thanks for watching!!
Thank you JOHN for explaining how to roast a chicken I am expecting my ninja today in the mail I did not get the one with the probe I got the AG 302 I already have a new wave that I bought on QVC and I also have a little black and decker of an air baker combo so I’m running out of space in my kitchen for more appliances my house oven is extremely small so to compensate I have all these other kitchen Appliances to help with multiple dishes.👍🏼
Love having a real down to earth man to watch and learn from. To relate with you is awesome. Keep them coming..
I just cooked a 5.27 lb. in the Foodi Grill on the Air Crisp mode. 350 degs. for 1 hour and 10 minutes. I did 30 mins. breast side down and the rest of the time flipped upside right. I did not stuff it. Salt, pepper, and greek seasoning. Yummers!!!!!
Thanks for sharing that... the grill does an excellent job!!!
Ohhhhh yes Lawerys is used in my house....lots as you put on.
Thanks!!!!
I do love the stuff...lol...thanks for watching!
Agreed! Another great find that my hispanic in-law turned me on to, years ago.... (found usually in ethnic aisle near refried beans/salsa & not spice aisle) An orange rectangular box w/ about 8 pkts inside. Called "GOYA.... & in smaller letters, con cuilantro" Has pics of fish, beef, chicken on box too, I think. I have some from a while ago, it's changed/updated a couple times over the years. Anyway, just a sprinkle on baked potato.... or up to one packet per lb+ of that on skirt steak.. chicken.. in casseroles.... anything... OMG, it's SO good. Like the spanish version of lawry's seasoned salt imho. Makes just enough difference that everyone is like, "oooh...so good... what did ya' put on this?!" ;) Still love Lawry's only tho, on burgers. Think 'cuz it takes me back to childhood & how my dad made them, idk. ENJOY. Stay safe & be well.
I cooked a 5.36lb chicken following your directions and it was delicious, however I did season overnight with lawrys, onion and garlic powder, paprika and fresh ground pepper . Spatchcocked is in my opinion the best way to cook a whole chicken on the Ninja Foodi. Thank you
It is a really really good way to make an excellent tasting chicken and the overnight marinate sounds like a really good idea!!! Thanks for sharing that!!!
Best chicken ever!! Crisp on the outside, juicy inside!
I know this video was 2 years ago but I just did another chicken like you taught me. Thanks for sharing all your recipes.
Thank you... very good to hear!!!
Just bought a Foodi Grill, yesterday. Based on watching your shows. I have two instapot pressure cookers I love (and I'm experienced already with pressure cookers) and wanted to add an air fryer but have heard too many bad reports from folks who bought the new Instapot Vortex and Omni air fryer ovens (breakage, didn't work out of the box, hard to clean) - so went with the Ninja Foodi Grill. Didn't go for the Pro. Have a good thermometer already and like to do my own checking. My first attempt at using it will be a spatchcocked 3 lb chicken (locally grown, organic, free-range, fed on locally sourced non-GMO feeds). Our remote rural area is famous for locally grown free-range etc. meats of all kinds. I bought 20 of these fine little chickens from the grower because there is just my son and I. Saw a video on baking and roasting and yours on grilling. I'm going to grill. Wish me luck!
That will be a delicious bird...I guarantee it!!! Let us know how it turns out and thanks for watching!
Thanks for demoing this product, and more importantly, showing that not everything goes as planned (e.g. the chicken wasn't quite done in some parts despite the probe saying its area was done). I like these types of videos.
It is something you have to look out for...anytime your using a thermometer of any kind it is important to check several places, I always use probes as a guide which prevented me from pulling this chicken early...I believe everyone needs an instant read thermometer of some kind...thanks for watching!
Outstanding, common sense vid...good deal. Just purchased the 5-in-1 Foodi Pro Grill w/meat probe a few days ago, loaded it up with some thighs...turned out excellent! They got gone quick!
It is a very good machine!!! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!!!
Great video and chicken looks delicious. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome...the chicken was fantastic!! Thanks for watching!
If you take out the grill part and just place the chicken on top of some carrots in the bottom pan and air fry, would allow for a larger chicken.
Probably so... thanks... and thanks for watching!!!
Thanks for the great review!!
We just got our Ninja Foodi Grill last week, took it for a test drive grilling chicken breasts tonight and it worked so well that we want to try a roast chicken next--your video was very helpful!
I hardly know how to cook without Lawrys seasoned salt and seasoned pepper--I put those on just about everything. The Weber Beer Can Chicken Seasoning is also a great one.
Costco sells an avocado oil spray that is a lot better than that Pam, might want to check it out.
😉
Thanks... glad you ennis the video and i hope i helped...I have a lot of different avacado sprays...I recently did some research and found the kind I like is one of 3 or 4 brands that do not use propellants...I haven't saw one at Costco but I will look for it next time I'm there...thanks and thanks for watching!!!
Hey John Your chicken looks great! I love your narration too! Going to get scissors that cut the bone! Thank you once again! Karen
Thank you...glad you enjoyed it and that is an excellent idea...(it's really the best way to cook a chicken in almost every cooking method if you ask me)...thanks for watching!
I just went out and bought a poultry shears!
Could you do a video on making homemade jerky with the dehydrator function? Really enjoy the videos
I have considered it and may try it soon...thanks for watching!
I always do my whole chickens in my NuWave oven. I didn’t even think about using my ninji grill. Good video.
Glad you enjoyed it...and thank you for watching!!!
Hi John,
Great video. Thanks I started using McCormicks Applewood grill mate rub and it reminds me of Lawrys but with very little salt. It adds great color but it’s the flavor that knocks it out of the part. Going to do this tomorrow with my new Ninja with the probe.
Suzie
LOL.. you make my heart laugh John! Great lookin' chicken right there.
Thanks Richard...glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching it!!
I’m exhausted watching yes
I get that way too...lol...thank you for watching!!!
🙋🏽♀️Another Great & Useful video Sir!!
Love your Salmon and will definitely try this Chicken soon!
I have to watch my Salt intake so I will switch to a Salt free alternative. 👍🏽
Glad to hear you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
hey John, who needs a cookbook when we have you ?!?
Lol... thanks!!!
It looks like a work of art on that plate
Thank you...and thanks for watching!
Nice work, easy vid, I’m buying this!
Thanks... glad you enjoyed the video... and thanks for watching!!
I laughed and learned.
That is good to hear!!
Excellent! thank you sir
You are welcome...thanks for watching!!!
Great video love it!! Now I’m gunna go buy one 🥰
You will not regret it...I use mine a lot more than I ever expected...thanks for watching!
Good looking bird. The only issue is finding a small chicken. It is next to impossible to find a chicken under 5 pounds in my area in any grocery store. The exception is buying an organic chicken. They tend to run a little smaller.
That is exactly what I have to do most of the time and you are correct they are a little hard to find in my area too...thanks for watching!
Dear..Thanks! Great video!
Where you buy the thermometer? Please can you tag the link?
Hi John. I followed your tutorial for the whole chicken tonight and it came out amazing. I was very generous with the Lawry's and it made the skin a little too salty (who would have guessed that?). I used my probe thermometer to 155 and double checked with the instant read just like you said and it was cooked perfectly as it hit 165 in resting about 10 minutes. The breast may have been just a tad on the dry side. Next time I'm going to brine it a couple of hours 1st and go a little easier on the Lawry's. Thanks for a great step-by-step. Fast, easy, and delicious.
That is really good to hear David, glad you enjoyed it and those are some excellent suggestions...I love Lawry's but it does have a good bit of salt...thank you very much for trying the recipe and sharing your suggestions which may help others...thanks again!!!
I used Lawry salt over 40 years on all my meats but I never ever put that much on that it turns it orange. Lightly season with it then you have more of the chicken flavor than salt. I had to reduce that light amount with having high blood pressure. But to each there own taste.
Great demo thank you!
I agree and I use it rather heavy... I do love salt too much!! Lol...
Your welcome... thank you for watching!!!
Good stuff Sir
Thanks and thanks for watching!!!
Do you think 2 game hens would fit without Spathcocked Method? Game hens are soooooo good and cooked whole one of the best tasting chickens out there in my opinion!
I would think so but hard to say without trying...thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching!!!
This was absolutely awesome! Thank you! I love that watch, would you mind sharing who makes it, please sir? :)
Thank you glad you enjoyed it and the watch is a Samsung Galaxy Active 2...thanks for watching!
Thank you, you were very thorough!
Thanks... glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for watching!!
Thanks... glad you enjoyed it... thank you for watching!!!
Now we know you know we know great video once again
Lol...that's right...thanks for watching John!!!
Amazon carries a real good Lawry`s all purpose chicken seasoning that size.
I have recently purchased that and can't wait to use it!!! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Which one would you recommend over the other: the Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fryer or the Ninja Foodi Grill?
I think they are both excellent devices for what they do...I use my grill more than the oven but that just might be me...but they both do different items...for instance I can do 12 inch pizzas in the oven and can't in the grill but the grill fires a better steak in my opinion and gets hotter...510° Fahrenheit...hope this helps and thanks for watching!!
Get both if you can...I got foodi grill and am getting air fryer oven
I’m trying this on my new grill thanks
You'll love it...thanks for watching!
A much better price on the chickens, that last one was almost 15 bucks, Thank you for posting
Yeah...I did some shipping this time...lol...thanks for watching!
how long did you cook it for once it started ccookig on 400
Not sure but all cooks will vary and that is why I love a instant read thermometer of some kind... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
Great Video John. Have you had any issues with your grill plate? Mine started to flake a bit. I need to contact support I suppose. I've used that seasoning salt on quite a few things :)
I have not had any issues with my plate...and the Lawrys is a staple here...lol...thanks for watching!
"Aint a family on 🌎 that wouldn't eat this" I agree
That is the truth!!! Lol...thanks for watching!!!
What knife are you using? It looks nice.
I have Shun knives... I do like them a lot...thanks for watching!!!
Did you dry the chicken after you rise it
Sorry for the late answer but yes..that helps it brown and crisp up...let me know how it did...thanks for watching!
How long to cook the chicken???
John, love your videos. Question::: 170 degrees is as high as the probe will work??? I probe baked potatoes and they need 202/210. Thanks.
Yes...170 is the limit...thanks for watching!
John Sanders thanks. I’ll pass then. My ninja bravo xl probe goes to 210. What I don’t care for is the construction as it is very lightweight design. The Foodis are built with heavier materials.
I think you meant Nuwave Bravo XL but I knew what you meant and I agree that would be nice for some recipes...thank you for watching!!
Can you bake bread in the Ninja Foodi Grill? And let dough rise? Can you please make a video?
I'm sure you can and I will try to have a recipe before long...thanks for watching!
John Sanders 👍👏😍❤️🙂 Thank you very much. Happy New Year! 🍀
And happy New Year to you and yours too!!!
have you tried doing it in the crisp basket?
No...the chicken would not have fit in the basket...thanks for watching!
Hey Jelly 007. Love your videos. I have a question. Do you have issues with this grill smoking up your home. I have seen several 1 star reviews for that reason.
I have had it smoke a little when I was doing hamburgers back to back but it is no different than any other indoor grill I have used and quite honestly it is a lot better than a couple of them...thanks for watching!
John Sanders ok I really want to make the investment but paused when I read people saying that the grill filled their homes up with smoke. But I guess as you said it’s no different than other grills
In case anyone else was wondering. You have to dump the grease after cooking your food if there's a lot. You also have to use an oil/spray with a medium/high smoke point like the avocado oil he uses
Is the cookbook you mentioned different from the one that came with the grill?
The only cookbook I have for this device is the one that came with it..thank you for watching!
You mentioned a cookbook at the beginning of the video.
I can’t wait to try this. Thank you for always putting out great relatable videos!
Hello John, I’ve been hesitating on whether to go for the ninja grill pro or the regular one, the one without the temp probe. I’m a beginner at cooking and I understand that the pro version pretty much tells you when food is ready. With the regular one I would have to check on the temperature with a separate thermometer. Is it worth getting the pro for this or for other reasons? Thanks for your videos, they’ll be very helpful!
I like the pro for that reason... however ... everyone needs an Instant read thermometer whether the device has it or not just to double check other points or to make sure it is in the coolest part of the chicken... or whatever protein... it can also be used on other devices... thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders Thanks a lot John, one last question. My kitchen is rather small with no counter space available for the ninja grill. The only place available would be the top of my refrigerator. Do you see a problem there in terms of the temperatures the grill can reach? I have a two step ladder which is tall and firm enough so I could handle the food just fine, But I don’t know if the grill’s temperature could be an issue for the refrigerator. What do you think?
I've never had one in the situation so I'm not sure I have an answer... maybe you should ask ninja... they could answer a lot better... hope this helps...
@@JohnSanders Ok John, I’ll ask ninja, thank you!
Where did you get the Ninja grill pro? Does it come with the thermometer thing? Does it Air Fry too? I am seriously thinking about getting one. By the way, I love Lawry's!
I got it from the Ninja kitchen website and the pro model comes with the probe...Lawrys is my favorite go to...thanks for watching!
@@JohnSanders Did they send it (or any of them) your way free?
John Sanders, you’re the man!!
Thank you... and thanks for watching!!!
How long did you cook it for ???
Are you related to the Colonel himself?
I wish...lol...
@@JohnSanders The man was actually legendary haha
Was the skin thin and crispy?
I thought it was... and very good!!!
What was the total cook time ?
I think right astound 45 minutes but it is different with different size chickens so you will need to rely on the temperature more than the time...thanks for watching!!
What was the total time
why didnt you try to fit the bigger chicken in, i mean we already know a small one fits like this :(
I show and explain that around the 7 minute mark...thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders Thanks for making the video!
thank god you did something right
Thanks... and thanks for watching!!
CornishHen: Will a whole 24oz cornish hen fit in the grill?
I feel like it would but I have not attempted...I have purchase some for that but they are frozen...maybe soon...thanks for watching!
Good video jelly007, but man you cross contaminated everything from your spices to your oil sprays to your watch...C’mon Man!
Thanks and that is a good point...I keep Clorox wipes somewhere close and use them quite often just not on camera because I'm not trying to suggest what I do is adequate or enough and I recommend everyone do their own research on things like this and there are videos that can show how to do it much better than I can... but... thanks and thank you for watching!!!
How long was the total cook time ? Thanks
Right at 40 minutes...you can see it on my timer near the end...thanks for watching!
Dude wiping i you out hands on a dry towels does not get rid of the raw chicken on your hands and the. Your touching everything. No no no
16:05 is when the chicken is done.
You talk too much about your scissors lol
I do like my scissors...lol...thanks for watching!!!
You talk tooooo much man...just do your things!!!!! Thanks for sharing it..:)
I get it... worked on it forever... just can't seem to balance trying to say what I think needs saying and get it done with less... but I appreciate the comment and thank you for watching...
@@JohnSanders haha that was a funny comment, but you keep doing what you are doing I enjoyed listening to you.
Thanks!!!
Sooo much talking
Sorry about that but thanks for watching!!!
hello . ur not to grill a whole chiken. you lost all concept......%$#@
Don’t wash chicken please🦠
anitab cleaning the chicken in vinegar and lemon juice produces better food
