Do you use a air fryer for this?

@goldensrbest --yes, I've done both in the airfryer. I like the burgers the best-- but have to say that either one of those are far superior on my Ninja outdoor grill so I tend to use that instead. I cook salmon in the airfryer that was exceptable but prefer that on the grill too. But meatballs, frozen or fresh are amazing in the airfryer, really anything from frozen is good.

@goldensrbest

Just did Filet Mignon for the first time last weekend.

Preheated to 380 deg

Misted a little oil, then S&P

We like our steaks MR so did 5 mins each side.

This was a TRUE MR, some may prefer 6-7 mins each side.

When I flipped, I added some searing butter.

Let rest...and was thrilled w/ how good they came out.

These were Rastelli thicker filets, would adjust time for sirloins & thinner cuts.

I always use my air fryer for my steak, burgers, chicken, ribs, and pork chops. I make casseroles in mine instead of heating up my oven.

I wore my first one out and purchased another one the same day.

I cook my steaks in my Ninja 5 in 1 Foodi air fryer all the time. They turn out great. It does an excellent job searing them.

I have not. We use a fry pan on the stove or the grill.

I need to get me an air fryer. Never had one. I hate heating up the stove in the summer.

@goldensrbest - Yes, I cook all of my burgers and steaks in my air fryer! They turn out juicy and delicious, and the minimization of cleanup and odors is fantastic. I have a slightly odd house layout in which my kitchen is right in the center of the house and the nearest window is far from the range, all the way across the entire kitchen and dining room; as a result, there is very little air circulation, so any smoke or strong smells from cooking can linger for a long time. With the air fryer, I can just barely smell the meat as it cooks and have no issues with smelling it for days later.

But long story short, I totally recommend the air fryer to cook meat of just about any kind—the results are great.

@goldensrbest ----I am over propane/charcole grills myself now-----had a huge stainless steel monster that I could hardly move--stupid ex gave it to me for a long ago b-day--got rid of that thing.--- my outdoor grill now, is electric and does many other things other than grilling including airfrying. Easier to use and move if I have to--- food tastes so good too and I can count on it turning out great.

We use our Weber charcoal grill or Pit Boss smoker.

DH also makes them on his Made-In griddle on the grill or smoker. The smoker has a sear plate you can open to char the steak a little bit.

The only steak I have made indoors is a Filet Mignon in a cast iron skillet going by directions I got off Blue Jean Chef. It turned out perfect.

I have a smaller air fryer, so I've only had beef filets. They turned out really well. The second time I lightly marianted it for a few hours with worcesteshire, garlic powder and onion powder and it was much, much better than the first one I did with just olive oil, S&P.

Do I prefer the air fryer over an outdoor grill? No, but since I no longer have a grill, the AF works really well. I did 5 minutes per side @ 380 and it turned out medium rare (more on the rare side). It's quick and easy - definitely worth a try!

I used my Ninja Foodie XL Pro, on the "grill" function. Steaks, burgers, chops, chicken breasts - perfect every time. We own a big Weber gas grill and that thing hasn't been fired up in years!

@wagirl Your post made me smile - stupid ex gave it to me for a long ago b-day--got rid of that thing -

I love the convenience of an air fryer and we use it for everything we can.

I HATE a gas grill; no one here wants to keep up with the propane, clean the grill, or cook on the grill. Ours is just taking up space in the garage.

@RedTop

That's why I bought a natural gas grill. Had the gas line installed when we built our home.

Which electric grill do you have?
