FIRST TEST! 🔥 Ninja Foodi XL Grill / Air Fryer Unboxing + Review (AG551UK)

[@ozell90]

You should preheat your grill and pan and then add your food. When the grill is pre-heated you will get nice grill marks.

[@aichan5235]

Air fryers are not that load. its because since this machine is geared more to "grilling" it has to pull out alot of wattages to power it, hence the advertised "500F" temperature. I own all the ninja products from foodie to applicances to coffee bars. I have the ninja foodie air fry, and its not load like this one at all, in fact its like the sound when you microwave food. If you are into air fry, i recommend that one.

[@richardmail2462]

Great video , I would leave the grill in the machine while it heats up though , you get the grille marks then .

[@Nitrochic73]

I'm thinking the grill plate should be inside while preheating.

[@themaker1000000]

You’re right

[@Nitrochic73]

I love this grill! :)

[@kellyjohnson5667]

Agreed

[@toriasummers2670]

Thanks for this. I ‘think’ for the sausages you should have put the grill plate in whilst it was heating up - they may have given you browner sausages quicker, just a thought!

[@stevenparry2931]

Think you should have the grill in whilst heating up

[@EJbtinkerbell]

Lovey review , question on these machines, is how do you keep your other food warm while the rest cooks, If using oven, does that no defeat the object , as your then using 2 appliances , I'm trying to justify in getting one of these thats all :)

[@jamesarens2651]

Your supposed to pre heat grill plate too

[@Gismotronics]

Thank you. I am thinking about buying of these, mainly for steaks. In that case, I would be pouring the fat back on the steaks or making a sauce out of it. It would be good for roast joints I think. I also like the idea of air frying veg. So, yes, apart from the noise, I'm tempted.

[@themaker1000000]

I have this ninja, and during the warm-up it makes a little noise, but not that loud. The recording increases the noise.

[@RoyaGal-eh2ze]

Hi, I want to buy a Huapaz, and after searching for a while, I found this device, which has a grill option in addition to the Huapaz option, but the biggest reason why I chose Ninja Max is the large surface it provides. I wanted to know, if we don't consider the optional grill, is this model a better option that has a larger surface or a normal model that has more depth? And that you can cook pizza and cake in this model?

[@banditman1200s]

Just purchased one what a must have for your kitchen 👍🏻

[@johnr5458]

Really helpful, thank you. No messing, to the point. Will a whole chicken work in this model?

[@sport7553]

This must be the best of the air fryers on the market

[@fredreed2001]

How do you use the Air Fryer to make Pierogia?

[@puffypuff9779]

Can I ask why you use a different air fryer on your KZbin shorts ?

[@michaeldavison4212]

would it help to find out how it work before you post a demonstration ?

[@mrz5705]

There's always a doggie to inspect what you are doing... (Beautiful Westie) 🐶

[@yokotoyama]

My mother had just recently bought this thanks to Qvc or HSN, don't remember which one had it on sale last night. She is so excited to try it.

[@BeckyExcell]

It is seriously as good as they hype it up to be! Love it so far, hope you guys like it too x

[@SimplicityForGood]

I cannot choose between the Ninja Foodi Dual Zone airfryer AF300EU and this Grill Max from Ninja you show here. What are the pros and cons basically between them that you would say is worth to consider before deciding? Thanks for getting back, trying to get one for Black Week/Friday now! 😊

[@bethaniebentley1340]

I've just started the low fodmap diet and omg im feeling so overwhelmed with it all. Someone on a ibs facebook group recommended your channel and I'm so happy to have your videos as guidance.

[@CatStockings]

If you have the money for it, I highly recommend getting the monach low fodmap app, it's about $15, but has the most comprehensive (and up to date) fodmap information and the money goes to fueling the low fodmap research. You can use it and other apps in tandem to make grocery shopping much easier. The best place to start at is take foods you already love and doctor them to a low fodmap diet. For example, I love mac n cheese with chicken tenders and a veggie side, so I looked up recipes for that specifically to start with and went from there. That's the only general tips I have, most of my knowledge is based on U.S. based products. I will say that Fody (I usually get their products online) has one of my favorite low fodmap chicken bases I've found. Their products are high-ish in sodium, though, so if you have to be mindful of that, you'll probably want to avoid Fody.

[@nickking2491]

Hi Becky, for air frying chips do you need to part boil them first?

[@dirtyprinz224]

What size cake tin can fit in that I want to try bake a cake in it

[@Iceman2504]

Thanks for the cool video and unboxing! Thumb up for the cute lil dog helper! :)

[@aamadras]

Has someone been able to find a dehydrator rack for AG551 anywhere or has used a DIY solution ?

[@forklift86]

Love the Ninja. However the touchscreen can be a bit random when you try to scroll temp and time up and down. My self my son and his girlfriend have had the same trouble with it but its not a huge problem youjust have to perservere with it

[@alexstl514]

Hi Becky! Really nice review! May I ask how loud is it? Like so loud I'd wake my neighbours up or just a bit annoying? Thanks in advance and Merry Xmas from Germany!!

[@zeenamarsi5738]

Thanks for sharing this. Can you grill a whole chicken in this?

[@yourlotusflower4414]

It has to be spatchcock chicken

[@fisher7814]

Great vid thanks Becky, did you put your chips back in to heat up when sausages were done?

[@BeckyExcell]

We kept them warm in the oven at a low temp! Thanks so much and thanks for watching x

[@sonypixs]

@@BeckyExcell Probably best to do the sausages first 😊

[@CarlvsTravel]

Aren't the chips cold? They've been out for like 15 minutes?? I still don't quite understand air fryers...

[@BeckyExcell]

I had the oven on low to keep them warm! Yeah you can't cook both at the same time (I could air fry the sausages with the chips I guess?) so we pop them in until everything is done x

[@blueblood3108]

So you cook your chips in it, then while you're cooking sausages you put the chips in your oven to keep warm while you wait? Is this really worth the expense when everything is cooked independently? I'm thinking about getting one but after seeing this I'm not so sure. Apart from capturing the juice from sausages, what's the main selling point?

[@CarlvsTravel]

@@blueblood3108 preach!

[@jj9nf]

Totally agree. Why spend such a ridiculous amount on something that will end up art the back of a cupboard. I love gadgets, but realistically priced.

[@Phil_AKA_ThundyUK]

It's a good product but definitely get extended warranty if it's an option as it's very expensive and the default warranty is a very poor 12 months.

[@sologvarme]

Can you make som sweet cake or something?

[@shashikalathimmegowda8111]

Which is good XL or tge old one

[@paigebaird4606]

I seen your ninja foodi flying over Manchester airport.

[@suzannekazmiruk183]

I’ve been thinking about getting an air fryer for a long time too. Yours looks amazing.

[@BeckyExcell]

Thank you - used it every day so far 😆 x

[@skywing959]

Very nice! Glad you finally got one! Looks very posh too, my Power XL one is much more basic. Regarding the noise level, some are worse than others. The one I have now isn't too bad, no louder than a microwave. But I had an Actifry before which sounded like a vacuum cleaner.

[@BeckyExcell]

Thanks for letting me know - this one definitely is almost on par with a vacuum cleaner 😆 Getting used to it a bit more now though!

[@twnll]

Love yr curious doggie!

[@LL-ki9em]

Why don’t u just use a stove top grill to save some counter top space

[@Studiggler]

hot sausage and cold chips 👍

[@Killswitch73]

£149.99 amazon prime day deal

[@rezzob]

“literally over a year” as oppose to metaphorically?

[@andyt9296]

If you read the instructions you would know what you were doing instead of questing. There is a tray for air frying so you don’t need to move the chips around while they are cooking

[@lulututu2981]

Hey! Do you have this? I'm thinking of buying it now sure though. Do you recommend?

[@scubadawgy]

Actually, the instructions do say to shake the ingredients around frequently when using the air-crisper.

[@stevelane1956]

Excellent review and we particularly like your assistant, we have two, mother and daughter Schnauzers!

[@abbrakadabra7943]

Anyone know ifit willcook a whole chicken?

[@xBuffaloBillx]

Make sure it's Spatchcock chicken

[@yvonnepulvenis9910]

while your sausages were cooking the chips must have been cold, would be a downside for me

[@naughtysauce4323]

It's all about planning, cook your meats first then your sides. Or you can buy the dual basket style air fryer so you can do both at the same time.

[@AnnWhytesGlutenFreeRecipes]

Wow! Looks amazing.

[@BeckyExcell]

Thank you Ann! x

[@timmyboch8521]

Great video , Thanks

[@glutenfree_meredith]

Looks awesome!

So that’s sausages with cold chips then!??

yeh but while your doing your sausages,your chips are gonna be cold cos you did them first

[@weege001]

Looks yummy.👍

I loved the legs!

[@moretimeneeded56]

If you air fry the sausages they cook all over and come out nicer than the grilled ones.

[@annchapman5986]

Thank you for that tip, I’ll try that

the choice of meats NEVER appears like yours does in the set up process read reread watched vids ?????????????? help

[@HappyHungryHibby]

Becky, great review and presenting. It was so annoying listening to the American reviews (no disrespect). I'm also really indecisive and this has really nailed it for me. There were several other Ninja airfryers and I also have a Which? account but still didn't help me. Loving your YT channel, I've subscribed and looking forward to watching more videos. I would love to get some feedback on my channel too! ?;^D

[@kangaroomommy4457]

I keep harassing my husband for the Vortex because in my mind we really need the rotisserie.

[@BeckyExcell]

I'll check that out - the rotisserie sounds amazing!! x

[@decadance1980]

What about the smoke development is it much ???? As usual Airfryers produce lots of smoke and the whole kitchen is bloked 😤😤😤

[@BeckyExcell]

Unless something is burning (for example, I put cheese on top of my burger and some dripped through to the bottom tray and started burning) there's no smoke! x

[@WardenMashups]

Thanks for the video. You made me not want to buy this model

[@WardenMashups]

I ended up buying it anyway. Didn’t think it was to loud, but I do have to put it under my cooker extractor fan otherwise my smoke alarm goes off. Even when there’s no smoke

[@mariaeugeniaortiza.423]
