Ninja Grill Anyone ?

NYCMOM · ‎03-10-2010

Hello All,

I am looking for feedback on this TSV, I was thinking about it for my wood deck. We are a small family so the size is right. I think the size is what's getting me interested. Just it's not a fire grill. UGH I guess I am looking for a small grill. So any suggestions are welcome. Thank you !

@NYCMOM ---OH get it!!!! this is a really good price for all you get. I got mine last year around this time and have used it at least 3-4 times a week in all sorts of weather. It cooks so well. I use th grill setting and my meats/fish/ chicken comes out beyond delicious!! Have done veggies on it, even baked a cake on it. Have airfried on it too--still haven't smoked anything yet--live in an apt complex and am wondering about the smoke output, but am going to try it.I got mine from HSN for $299 and it didn't come with the table---Huge score for that. Mine lives on my covered balcony-- the grates are easy to clean too. There is a learning curve--mostly with the time things take to to cook. I use less so start out that way. I also use a thermometer too--your best friend. Just me and my DD so the size is prefect. Was kind of surprised how well it grills being electric--have an indoor electric griddle/grill that doesn't do a very good job with the good grill marks on things.

LOVE it--can you tell?

I see that it has a 4' cord, so you'll need an outlet somewhere to plug it in. I wouldn't feel safe putting it in the garage. I like that it's UL rated. There have been several appliances from China, from toasters catching fire to foot baths that give you shocks. They aren't UL rated.

I eat a whole food plant based diet, so I don't think I'd get much use out of this. I wonder how it would do making baked potatoes or grilled veggies. Maybe I'd consider buying it if they showed how it works well with food other than meat.

My son in law has a smoker by a different brand. He loves it & uses it a lot for beef & pork. So, if you don't have a smoker & you eat a lot of meat products you might want to try it. It seems like a good product for the price.

Smoked/charred meat I don't eat so I'll pass, not healthy. I do like grilled veggies though and I can make them on my regular gas grill. No need for a Ninja grill to do that.

Ours is wonderful! Use it all the time. We eat lean meats and you can or don't have to use the smoke feature. Turkey breast comes out perfect. Veggies are wonderful. So easy to make homemade fahitas. So easy to clean up. Never had anything stick.

If I lived in a house I would buy the Ninja Grill.

As mentioned, grilling shouldn't be confined to just meat. For meat eaters, there are facts supporting the health benefits of cooking meat on a grill. There is also some information available regarding things that can be considered health risks when cooking on a grill. Ya'll can do your own research and make educated decisions for yourself.

My review from HSN on the larger Ninja Woodfire, but basically they're alike:

Now I'm a Grill Master!!!

Ninja Woodfire Pro XL has given me confidence to grill foods without anxiety. So far I've made burgers, chicken thighs, steaks and baked beans, all using the "smoke" feature. Everything came out great! Was hesitant to use the smoke feature, but found it adds nice flavor without being overpowering. Grill plate is heavy and slick, food doesn't stick. Washes up fast, easy. Everything is included that you need to get started. So very pleased with this purchase. Great product by Ninja!

I added the stand which comes with this TSV. It's sturdy and accommodates other Ninja outdoor products.
