Air fryer: best kitchen tool ever????

[HMFIC_BROWSIN]

Used it 3x today. I only clean it once per week, so literally i almost never have to clean cooking dishes....

Today i made morning bacon in it, then sweet potato fries at lunch, then Brussel sprouts with bacon for dinner.

Zero mess. I leave it on the back porch because it has a smoke exhaust that makes the house smell like a mcdonalds.... But outside its perfect.

I don't even like sweet potatoes/brussel sprouts but the air fryer makes it DELISH! Just use some olive oil/seasonings and it gives your veggies a perfect crisp.

Bacon is the GOAT in there.... My kitchen is always clean now because all the splatter and chit is contained in the air fryer.

I was sceptical of it and thought it was just another useless kitchen appliance.


I was wrong. One of my best purchases in a while

[CopeFear]

Sloots are the best kitchen tool.

[gmenfan40]

Disagree, crockpot is the best kitchen appliance to have.

[TonyTriangles]

i thought having an instantpot was end game but i was wrong. the air fryer made my meal prep 10x faster and delicious.

i've been experimenting with all sorts of foods and they all turned out great!

brb-bacon wrapped asparagus
brb-rolled up bacon
brb-fried chicken
brb-bacon wrapped spam
brb-used to heat up chimichangas
brb-baked sweet potatoes
brb-slammin salmon
faster than an oven and so many cooking options

[ScottTil]

so far my favourite is fried chicken or fried tilapia. Literally no eggs required, just mix flour with bread crumbs and your favourite spices and coat the meat or fish in it and it will turn out just like KFC chicken or restaurant ordered fish and chips srs

Not bad, but not practical if you have more than one adult in the household.

Which brands/models should I look at?

Which brands/models should I look at?

In for this too. Been lookin into them lately.

[Lunatic]

I think the best kitchen tool is a fork or spoon, but to each his own.

Got this one from Amazon. Does the trick and doesn’t take up too much counter space for me.

But I’ve heard Ninja’s is pretty good

Just bought an oven for a property with a built in air fryer. **** kills it.

[MegaSloot]

Those air fryer infomercials before the football ... hhnnnng! I watch them and imagine

[SipNPiz]

i thought they were just another trending useless kitchen appliance but I use mine at least 2-3 times per day, it replaces a toaster over, toaster and cooks twice as fast compared to an oven or toaster oven. thick cut bacon, 8 minutes at 400 vs 20 minutes on the stove... its glorious, glorious i say.

[doughnutking]

How much bacon do you eat every week, fatty?

[atgbrahsrs]

whats the difference between an oven and an air fryer in terms of taste etc

[iwant2beswole]

I just ordered this

https://www.costco.com/cuisinart-dig...100600123.html

Which is a bit more aesthetic and hopefully works better than current air fryer. Yes they are goat.

[lnvictus]

I have a low power one but gets the job done. Love the rotisserie function where it slowly cooks the chicken. Thinking of getting a better one and in for suggestion.

I got this one..but I think it's dying

air frier is just a mini convection oven, hot air circulates, if you spray it with oil first it comes out super crispy

[Jestbrah]

im not on the 200g of fat a day diet so i barely use mine

it takes at minimum like 2 tablespoons of oil to coat food in to fry adequately and i just aint about that life

Wut lol

I don’t use any oil

[Firefightn24]

Using mine as I type this. Have one of these Ninja air fryer/toaster ovens. It flips up too so you don't lose much counter space.

[Joseph1990]

All you phaggots that just figured out how to use a convection oven in 2020 drive me nuts.

[skier!]

My understanding is these take up counter space (big) but you can't put a lot of food inside? Is this true?

Same. Didn't think anything of it. Only had it for potatoes at first.... Now I use it for nearly everything.

Disagree, crockpot is the best kitchen appliance to have.

Not really.... Crockpot has its uses, but for speedy meals and daily convenience, air fryer mogs tf out of a crock pot.

Intredasting. I figure the air fryer has that crisp an instant pot couldn't ever deliver.

Fuarkkkkkkkk. Will try/10

Also, no mess. Bacon fuks up the kitchen, but not inside an air fryer.

Every day. Srs.

Air fryer: no dishes, creates a "grilled" finish with charing, super fast, pre-heating is nearly instant. Meat in air fryer is more like how it turns out on the grill, as opposed to oven which has no char-effect.

One of the biggest reasons I bought the Ninja I posted above. The pan is 13x13 which is larger than a lot of others. It's not very tall, but I'm not cooking whole chickens in it either. Fish, chicken, veggies, fries, etc. All turns out great. Preheats to 400 in under a minute as well. Have even done rib eye in it on the broil setting just to see... and it's pretty damn good too.

Hmm. Considered one a while ago but they are fuggin huge.
