My wife makes an awesome Pepsi chicken wing. Basically season the wings with ginger, a splash of wine and salt. Put them in a fry pan add a can of Pepsi and cook it down until the Pepsi is a sticky syrup sauce. Serve with chives. I believe this is an authentic Chinese recipe.

[@markpukey8]

If it's not... it probably BECAME ONE within a week of them getting Coke or Pepsi! It sounds delicious.

[@adambarron4015]

A really good meat for the airfryer is lamb loin chop. Dry brine and place in tray on the top side of the T of the bone. Fry at 250F for 8-12 minutes. The Dreo Chefmaker also just updated with a chefmode for lamb loin chop.

soda, beer and pineapple juice really does tenderize meat. they break down the fiber of the meat that is why it's so juicy and soft when eaten.

[@silent2163]

ohh hell yes! It really does tenderize meat. I always use Sprite or coke in tenderizing pork or beef. it also adds flavor and caramelize the sauce/glaze as it cooks. In Flipino dishes, we use it to make our version of Filipino beef jerky or what we call TAPA. Or use the fizzy drink in cooking hamonado or pata tim or asado. We also use sprite when cooking shrimp. IDK why but my mom says it omits the unpleasant smell of the seafood.

Love my chefmaker man. You're obviously not going to get a sear like you get in a cast iron or on a grill but it does a really good job for what it is and with the probe it's really set it and forget it.

I love it too, but it does overcook food slightly. It's almost better to babysit it and sear off in a hot pan for the sous vide, if that's what you're after, but it's a minor thing.

I did the day one kickstarter with the chefmaker. It is a really nice device. I held off getting an air fryer for a long time. I'm a trained chef and I kind of went back and forth on getting one till I saw the Chefmaker on SORTED, then yours. I was impressed with what I saw so I decided to go for it. I have no regrets, though there are a couple of minor tweaks that I'd make if I could.

[@FussyPickles]

a trained chef using an air fyrer where did you train?

[@RonJDuncan]

@@FussyPickles I went to an ACF certified school through college - no place you'd have heard of. Not that it matters. I can do all the same tasks manually that comes with classical French training. Yes, it's a mini convection oven, but it frees me up for other tasks in my home kitchen. No preheating, no fuss, easy to clean, and convenient. Work smarter, not harder. LIke most chefs, all the complicated dishes are better reserved for a team in a restaurant kitchen, and at home, it's just easier to stick to simpler foods. Of course, there are things that make this better than your traditional air fryer which is what got my interest. The probe cooking is helpful. The water misting and variable controls with the fan make up for some of the flaws, so let me go into that. I'd like to see variable humidity control with the water to make it more of a true combi oven. It also slightly overcooks food. Manual sous vide with probe cooking would also make this better. It also only hits a max of 450, so the sear isn't what it could be. Some other manual controls would go a long way. Not that I couldn't combine for things to finish in a pan. You can customize the process. There are machines that can do a better job, but there are downsides. See, I paid $199 for the DREO, and I have zero regrets. The one oven I know that can outdo this is the Anova Precision Oven, but not only is it much larger and it would take up more space in my kitchen than I have, I was never going to be able to afford the $700 price tag. At roughly half the cost (and less than that with a promo) I think it's pretty damn good. I'd give the device an 8 out of 10, and I'd bump it up to a 9 if DREO provides some of those tweaks via software updates.
