learned that you can add pellets during a cook - just press the "flame" button for 3 seconds to start the ignite cycle again - love your videos CJ

[@CookingWithCJ]

Good to know, I didn’t know that. Thanks!

[@twizack22]

I'll be on the look out for a redo on the ribs with this bit of information. Wish I could taste test it too.😁😁😋😋

[@samlewis4195]

Thank you for this!

[@teresacormier4114]

I just add more and they lite up from the ones at the bottom. I find if I press the button again it just burns up the pellets

Thank you for making me a Rock Star! Just got my grill and tossed their book and followed your instructions from this video and they turned out perfect! When served, the table went silent for a few minutes and then, no one could stop raving about then. Thank you for making it so easy, I just followed your instructions and it turned out perfect! Can’t wait to try meatloaf!

[@CookingWithCJ]

That is awesome! Thank you for the kind words! Cheers

[@purplelotus3495]

CJ I followed your directions and the ribs were amazing. Thank you.

[@sharonmungall6704]

[@CookingWithCJ]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@gwcbilly]

Fair play I’ve been watching your videos for over a year now and the past month I’ve put into practice many things I’ve learned from your channel and now it’s showing significant results. These ribs are absolutely amazing. Especially when using the apple juice to spritz up the bark. Top channel my friend! Keep up the great work buddy ❤

[@DeathbyBambi]

Just got this grill last night. I'm gonna follow your exact recipe today, they look and sound delicious! Im stoked!

[@CookingWithCJ]

[@CookingWithCJ]

Right?! I agree. Thanks Bobbi!

[@davidruderman8158]

CJ is the man when it comes to using the Ninja Woodfire Grill. Used this recipe for baby back ribs and they came out amazing! Used his recipe for pulled pork a few months ago and that came out great too!

[@CookingWithCJ]

Right on! thanks!

[@timidchanteuse]

So glad I found your channel before I bought this. I just followed your instructions and these ribs came out great! Juicy and tender and I won’t be DoorDashing from my local BBQ place any more 😋😋😋

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thank you!!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

I like both types of ribs, savoury and sweet. Sweet and sour is also good, because of the flavour contrast. Those ribs look pretty tasty. Cheers, CJ! ✌️

Awesome! Cheers brother!

These look excellent CJ! Totally considering this Ninja for the urban setting I'm in!

[@CookingWithCJ]

Yessir! Thanks!

[@judithimgrund1988]

just got this grill and cooked a whole chicken. So good. Do more of these.

[@CookingWithCJ]

Definitely!

[@williammitchell5391]

Still not "fall of the bone" tender. Have you revived this recipe to help us in achieving this, CJ...taste is woderful...and full of flavor...but, still not what I would expect from a Grill Master like you..I want to keep following you brother...please throw me a lifeline!

[@JaeCruz636]

I guess you missed one of the bones falling out the meat? lol

[@williammitchell5391]

[@johnweimer3249]

Best cook by gut I have seen for this product. I am buying this because my wife has a lung issue and I cannot cook anything at all in the house that makes any kind of smoke not even a toaster. I was hoping this would be a game changer for me and this video tells me it is. I have all kinds of outdoor cookers and smokers, but it gets cold here and I also need some thing that I can cook things that smoke and cooks quick like burgers and steaks. I can’t do that inside on cast-iron anymore because of her condition. This video convinced me this unit is worth it. Thanks

[@CookingWithCJ]

Awesome, glad I could help

[@TheBeardedItalian]

The pullback on those ribs was amazing CJ! Everything looked delicious brother.

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thanks much! Cheers!

[@rtcoleman3626]

I'm buying my first Ninja Woodfire smoker grill because of you and your videos, I love them don't ever stop and the ribs I have to tell you they look awesome👍👍💯👈

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thank you!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Those ribs did look very tasty brother CJ!!! You could use a little pink curing salt "Prauge" to get a fake smoke ring. I use it when I bake ribs in the oven and they turn out great. I may have to get one of those Ninja Woodfire grills. Pretty cool little cooker!!! Cheers brother!!!!!

[@CookingWithCJ]

Hey thanks for the tip brother Troy! It is pretty cool. Hope all is well out there. Cheers brother!

[@songsforthedeck1116]

Please dont do this.

[@Aussiefilipina70]

Perfection Sir you know what you're doing and as a viewer we do learn from your videos thank you so much

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thanks much!

Followed this to the letter and they were delicious. Next time I’ll bake them just a bit longer but yummm

[@rickeymulkey8080]

Looking good! This new Ninja looking great.

[@CookingWithCJ]

Appreciate it! Cheers!

Eating ribs from my Woodfire grill, exactly as you showed us. OMG! They are so good. I also put a corningware casserole of baked beans to smoke, excellant! Thank You CJ, I watch, subscribed, liking, and learning. 👍👍

Yum! Can’t wait to try these!

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thank you!!

[@coreyray6723]

Many thanks. I do not have a ninja yet, but I do cook ribs in my confection oven. You showed me how to complete them. Place it back in wrapped in aluminum foil, surrounded by sauce and seasonings. Cooking for an additional hour. Then bake for an additional 10 minutes, I believe you said. I appreciate it. I was only ever doing the first step. they were always done, but not as tender as I would want. Thanks

[@CookingWithCJ]

Thank you!!

[@Ronny_Lopez]

That's it!!! I'm subscribed! Bro! You made my first rib cooking experience awesome! Followed this recipe as well as your reverse seared tri tip video! Thank you! Meat was falling off the bone, every bite was soft and delicious! You are the man, bro!

[@CookingWithCJ]

Awesome! Thank you!

On my oven, with one container of pellets there is plenty of smoke to create an excellent bark. The food does not need more smoke. Yummy!

People sleep on these crossover style grills but they are fun! I’ve got a masterbuilt 20qt air fryer that has a wood chip drawer that sits on the burner. Air fried/smoked wings beats out any other method I’ve tried! Planning on air frying/smoking a 20lb bird for thanksgiving! It can also dehydrate & has tons of space for lots jerky.

[@CookingWithCJ]

Definitely!

Look at all them delicious bad boy ribs! If we need to make 2 batches we make 2 batches either in one or in two different Ninjas or even an oven or another grill. No one starving here, so come on over and I'll cook, lol! Plus all the sides and what not is plenty for everyone. CJ , Thank you for always showing us such great food and how everything works. I really appreciate it. Sweet and Hot 🔥 😍 😋 Ribs. But I don't mind making another less hot batch for those who don't like much heat. Keep on cooking CJ.

I can’t believe the stuff that ninja comes out with!!! All of it seems to be fairly decent from the blender all the way to this grill even have a ice cream maker!!! And all of it seems to get fairly decent reviews!!! This grill smoker would be nice for traveling on the road and cooking outside of a hotel room on the tailgate. I looked up the price of that gimmicky knife $97 wow they’re pretty proud of that knife!!!

Yeah they put out some pretty good stuff. Thanks for watching!

followed your steps and our ribs turned out GREAT! This grill is surpassing all of our expectations and meeting the challenge. we were first going to use it for our motorhome..screw that. We're using it for both home and motorhome. Tonight we're trying the air fryer feature...

Using ours in when out in motorhome and at home. We were at a campground and cooking a small brisket, I had people all over the place, checking out our Ninja Woodfire grill and plenty on compliments. Later on seen a box outside a camper. YEP Woodfire Grill box from Best Buy LOL;

Heads up! When I want a smoke ring using my electric masterbuilt smoker I just add three to four charcoal briquettes to the smoking wood box and that does the trick. But like you said the ring doesn't mean more flavor it's just a visual coolness thing.
