From my maiden voyage with it, I have the following lessons. One, you don't have to use oil but it really helps when you do. Two, it's a just a convection oven with a really strong fan. Three, tater tots are great in it. Four, clean up is easy.

Yep, I just got one. Great so far. Yes to all the questions.

If you are an internet troll just spewing bs then f off. |

Three, tater tots are great in it. Four, clean up is easy. Funny, I just ordered a 6 quart one from BJ's because it was on sale for 50% off. Don't have any experience with these things. But it would be neat to fry some thing without using all that expensive peanut oil and the cleanup/waste. ------------------------- I’VE SWORN AN OATH OF SOLITUDE UNTIL THE PESTILENCE IS PURGED FROM THESE LANDS. |

My friends have one, cook everything in it and love it. I just finally dialed in my pressure cooker so the air fryer will have to wait until next year!

Air fryer is next on the list. The electronic pressure cooker performs wonders: 4 1/4 pound whole frozen chicken, , , , done in 40 minutes.

Not sure if it is good or not but seems to be a great deal. Most 6 quart air fryers are double to triple the price. You can get BJ's online shopping free for a week. That's how I got it. No agreement needed free trial. No need to cancel. ------------------------- I’VE SWORN AN OATH OF SOLITUDE UNTIL THE PESTILENCE IS PURGED FROM THESE LANDS.

Sorry to derail the thread but what about sous vide? Anyone delve into this madness yet?

Sous vide? Yes. I did some interneting and found that it can be accomplished in a crock pot.
"Most" sous vide recipes call for about/around 135F. I found that a controllable crock pot will hold 140F on "warm", warm only not "low. I've done the meanest, toughest, stew meat from Walmart in the crock for about 24 hours. Came out like filet!!! I did some tough country style pork ribs and they came out like pork butter. Oh and, the key is no seasoning, perhaps only a little salt. You can season as you like when you prepare the final dish. Edited: 05/16/2020 at 08:30 AM by dingpatch |

Yes, sealed them up good and tight. Did not bother keeping it off of the bottom, just covered in water. I started with warm/hot tap water to get a little ahead of the process.

I'll try this when I see some cheap ass tough steaks on sale. I have tons of cooking temp probes to keep an eye on temp. I bet a basket to suspend would work good. My crock pot gets hot on the bottom, it's an oldy. ------------------------- I’VE SWORN AN OATH OF SOLITUDE UNTIL THE PESTILENCE IS PURGED FROM THESE LANDS. |

Only use a crock that has a "warm" setting on it, not low. Should be no problems.
And, what I found interesting about slow cookers is that the "low" setting IS NOT a lower temperature, it just takes longer to get up to "hot" than the actual "hot" setting does!! Edited: 05/16/2020 at 10:01 AM by dingpatch |

Well I'll give this a go before buying a 100 dollar sous vide unit to see if I even like it. Who knows maybe my gear will work good, wont even need it. ------------------------- I’VE SWORN AN OATH OF SOLITUDE UNTIL THE PESTILENCE IS PURGED FROM THESE LANDS. |

Two things. The sous vide with steak will make a very tender steak but you have to throw it on the grill just to get the grill marks.
I did the coconut shrimp air fry recipe. Pat shrimp, dredge in corn starch, dip in egg white batter and then sweetened coconut flakes. Put them in air fryer for 15 minutes on 330 and flip around and toss at halfway. Very good. Lots less fat and plenty of flavor. ------------------------- "One of the reasons why propaganda tries to get you to hate government is because it's the one existing institution in which people can participate to some extent and constrain tyrannical unaccountable power."
