Whole Chicken NINJA SPEEDI w/ Thermometer Steam Crisp RAPID COOKER & AIR FRYER

Everything I could think of to demonstrate while cooking a Whole Chicken in the Ninja Speedi... including using a stand alone thermometer. #jelly007 #ninjaspeedi

[@rickynorris6592]

Thanks for the recipe 🙂 this is a great meal for the weekend

[@JohnSanders]

Yes it is!!

[@Blushnprincess]

Thank you for this video!

[@519MEDIA]

Love the channel brother 📸👈👍

[@tomm9493]

Good video but WAY WAY too much yapping to say something.

[@CookingWithCJ]

Great looking birdy John! Great tip on lowering the temp. I noticed the Speedi definitely runs hot. I always pull my birds at 160, juicy every time. And love me some good’ol fashioned Lawrys!

[@JohnSanders]

Thanks CJ...I started to holler at you I came to Vegas for the week and thought you might be here too...I was thinking you go there occasionally... but yeah those temps are a little hot...

[@CookingWithCJ]

@@JohnSanders we’re there all of the time! It’s about 3 hours from my house. We actually just got back last Sunday. Love that place! Have fun!

[@JohnSanders]

I got there last Sunday for a Subway sandwich store convention...I do the maintenance stuff for a friend of mine who owns several stores... but I just landed in Atlanta... time to get back to the norm lol...

[@barbarahurst8654]

Another truly informative video, John! Two quick questions: How does this compare to the Ninja Foodi 6.5 Qt. Pressure Cooker Steam Fryer with SmartLid? Will Meater thermometers work well with either of these, too? Thanks!

[@JohnSanders]

I have not used the Meater in either of these devices...

[@rhymeoftheancients]

Our chickens are 2 for 10 dollars. I guess others have different prices. I want to clean it myself and cook it in my own spices so there is that. I don't know you so I wouldn't know why you would or wouldn't do anything. You do whatever you want or not according to your own needs and wants. To each their own.

[@rw3687]

Suspect that the next iteration of this cooker will have a built-in thermometer, so saving my money for now.

[@Woohchaiell]

Doubt it. Thermometers are very sensitive and it’d still have to be an externally attached apparatus. They won’t want to take that responsibility and liability for malfunctioning or misused thermometers.

[@carolcowan8871]

Chicken looks good! What is the brand of your thermometer? Thanks.

[@daveducker2688]

I'm gonna wait to see if they come out with a 8quart.

[@manofsan]

*Could the Speedi cook an entire chicken from frozen using Steam Crisp mode? I'd really like to know* 🤔

[@jaytracks]

I can't wait for more videos on this unit....thanks again for your fun content

[@JohnSanders]

Your welcome Joe...thanks for watching!!!

[@NightingaleNews]

Great video, John! I have so many Ninjas. I have the Smart lid w/ the thermometer, the latest grill, the double air fryer and more. Will this add any benefit to my lineup, or can I do the same thing with my steam air fryer smart lid unit?? Thanks for continuing these videos. You're my favorite!

[@JohnSanders]

The Smartlid is still the undisputed king of my kitchen!!! And yes it does it all...lol..I like the square part about the Speedi but doubt I would buy it just for that...thanks for watching and glad you enjoy the videos!!!

[@barbarahurst8654]

Great question! I also have way more Ninja Foodis than a sane person really needs. I think this is the first one where I didn’t have to stop myself from ordering it immediately.

[@lausdeandl]

@@barbarahurst8654 Same here. Love my Steam and Crisp..

[@proudbacteria1373]

@@lausdeandl I'm struggling between chosing regular air fryer and Ninja Speedi. Is Speedy's Steam function a gimmick or is it real improvement?

[@sandrawestley4193]

I think it depends what and how you eat as a family, if you buy loads of food for the freezer that cooks in a airfryer, if you eat pasta and sauces and want to have cooked veg which you cannot have in an airfryer, then in my opinion is what splits the people that buy them. I was going to buy an airfryer until I found this Speedi, and it does everything we eat. Gilled meat chicken or fish, with a side of eith pasta or potatoes or rice and veg, occasionally we have chips, but not very often, we dont eat pies or fried foods, so the Speedi is for us.

[@PrimeVegas]

Let's try a prime rib next John...!!

[@tulipsmoran5197]

Just interested can you fit a spatchcock 4# chicken in the Speedi? The Steam/Crisp function should almost work better and the upper skin wouldn't be exposed to intense heat. There's real benefits to 400* temp - it actually sears and seals the juices in especially if using the steam function. I have an F.Blumlein Combi - Steam Oven that is phenomenal. It's 34qt and can handle very large 16-18# turkeys. I proof, steam and bake my bread in it as well. I've just found the combi (steam/crisp) produces much better fowl at steam and 400* convection finish. I'd think the airfry would as well. So maybe the spatchcock approach may eliminate the overcooking of the upper breast meat. I do enjoy watching your vids. Thanks!

[@kathleencollins6355]

Useful video to see the Speedi working and with a whole chicken but please stop talking so much.

[@Maleezza]

Pretty sure "steam & crisp" should have a cup of water in the pot while cooking.

[@conniecohen7923]

Hey John! Thanks so much for another great video! Just wondering, do you think you can use the MEATER with this unit or are you afraid of the steam?

[@JohnSanders]

I am not sure...a little worried about the steam on it...

[@vitazgal9933]

Hey hey !! Today is one special day....August 29th !! Happy Happy Birthday to one special guy... You, Babydoll & all those near and dear have a wonderful day...The Heavens are smiling.... I know I am.. !!! ~Cheers Double0~ !!!

[@JohnSanders]

Thanks vita z.... cheers to you also!!

[@ivycami3800]

Do you think we can add stuff to the inside of the chicken?

[@timhogy1872]

I love your shows... I love the ninja videos!!!!

[@kinglord5429]

So what makes this any different than regular foodie besides being square shape. Seams everything same temp, pressure cooking nothing but square shape

[@kinglord5429]

Would the bake/roast function work just as well since fan speed is variable

[@kinglord5429]

Steam like sear function has very low heat so no Browning

[@Darci3333]

Where in the world am I gonna be able to get an ancient thermometer like yours so I can do this right....I gots to have one🙃😅

[@JohnSanders]

It's been a good one...lol

[@pamelareed368]

Looks fantastic. Now I’m hungry. I will be doing this tomorrow. Thank you!!

[@JohnSanders]

It worked really well!!! Thanks for watching Pamela!!!

[@countrycitybeach]

It automatically goes to sear from steam? Or you have to turn the knob to the other position to sear it? Thanks

[@shirleystevens7002]

It goes automatically to sear.

[@sueh1091]

hello if you want both sides of the chicken crispy, can you start it top down for 20 mins and then flip to bottom down for another 20 then maybe the 400 will work?

[@jameswarner5878]

I'm in the fence about getting this one. Definitely functional, but do I need it?

[@JohnSanders]

It works well if it does what you need...

[@kinglord5429]

This machine steaming function sounds like good for beef short ribs. You can use sear to brown them and steam to cook slowly making them tender.

[@sandramendoza3718]

Can’t wait to try this out

[@vitazgal9933]

Hi there again ! Am going right now to find this & purchase it ! THANKS for the wonderful demo.... So good to be here....

[@bryancloar5760]

John, I’m debating between the speedi and foodi smart lid with thermometer. I’m assuming that the food is at lid would be equally as effective in preparing all the recipes available for the speedi (for the steam & crisp function). Any reason that would b e a bad assumption? Thanks!

[@jeromefridmann6108]

Yak...Yak...Yak

[@Woohchaiell]

The meat looks a touch dry. What if you flipped the chicken halfway through for a bit of a rotisserie effect?

[@mrsccm]

Great machine, i use it daily, thanks for another great video!

[@JohnSanders]

Yes it is...thanks for watching!!!

[@13699111]

Thank you for posting interesting informative video's is there any extra cook wear for baking etc

[@richdiorio3650]

Great video! When making a complete meal will it cook frozen chicken or does it have to be fresh?

[@anonymousvapes8026]

They added extra to make the chicken weigh more.

[@JohnSanders]

You are probably correct...

[@suziekiehn5553]

I meant I served your OL701 Ribs

[@glendalloyd7052]

I love this!!! I learn so much from you. Soooo my Speedi is on the way

[@whatsup3820]

What's the maximum size whole chicken can it take?

[@furysmith6564]

Hey John, great video! Do you think it will braise well? I’d like it for short ribs

[@ongsteve1134]

Which model,6qt or 8qt.

[@phillipmason756]

WILL YOU DO CORNISH HENS PLEASE

[@maryharding6399]

Hi John. You mentioned this is also a pressure cooker, but I’m not sure that is the case as the lid doesn’t actually seal to create pressure does it??

[@sandrawestley4193]

It’s definitely not a pressure cooker.

[@suziekiehn5553]

Hi John Just served my family your Ninja Foodi OL 701 Pressure cooker using the thermometer and as always ….delish. 😁 I learned from another KZbinr of another oil sprayer that works really excellent because like you and her and I our EVO sprayer wasn’t doing an even spray anymore. It’s on Amazon and it’s a 6oz oil sprayer called the Mistifi. I have used mine since November and it’s still perfect. I paid $16.99. I highly recommend it. Going to do the chicken once I give in to my whim and buy the Speedi. Thanks again for another great and entertaining and educational video. You’re one of my fav cooks. Thanks John

[@JohnSanders]

Thanks Suzie!!!

[@terebrown2892]

Thanks for the heads up on the spray bottle. Better to spend the $17 on one you know works well than 10-15 on one, then be unhappy with it forever.

[@WayneHenrymd]

I was wondering, could you use aluminum foil to line the bottom pan, so that the bottom doesn't get hard to clean. I usually use aluminum foil or parchment paper at the bottom of the pan and then put the basket for the airfare on top of it. I am considering purchasing this unit.

[@terebrown2892]

I was thinking it would cut down on the cleaning if you made gravy while the chicken was resting? I'm thinking of getting one too, specially since I couldn't decide which air fryer to get so I haven't yet. Now I'm glad I waited. And I thank ole'Jelly 007 for convincing me!

[@sandrawestley4193]

Yes I would have made some gray with those juices it would have tasted lovely, I’m also with you on the airfryer, I’ve looked at several but we eat like grilled meats, with some pasta or rice or potatoes, with veg, none of which can be down on an airfryer, so I’m have a Soeedi when I get home.

[@danlycans5307]

Do you clean all the Bottles and containers (Avocado sprayer, Lawry’s Container), since you handles the raw chicken then handle them?

[@JohnSanders]

Yes... it is really easy using the clorox sanitizer sprayer I have sitting on the counter during the video so it is easily seen... it is very important and should be done quite often... but I leave this type stiff out just for the ones that point this out a lot

[@terebrown2892]

@@JohnSanders I usually keep a produce bag (or Walmart or any plastic bag) kind of propped open on the counter to stick my contaminated hand in if I need to pick up the Lawry's or anything else. Thanks for a great video. You sold on this one!

[@bandiko22]

As much as I think that chicken looks delicious I can get a cooked rotisserie one for $4.99 at the supermarket. Why would I spend $10.81 to bring it home and cook it in a machine that costs what the Ninja cooker costs?

[@Blushnprincess]

Darn, that’s a good point too 😩

[@sheriwright1625]

The rotisserie chickens at the supermarket are tempting for a quick meal, however, if you do your research on what they inject into their chickens (one being lots of sodium) you can see why someone like myself would purchase a hormone free fresh chicken, not injected with nasty chemicals. I like knowing what is in the food I am eating. Convenience is great but not if it negates my health. Thx.
