Let me let you in on a little secret Big Air Fryer doesn’t want you to know about. They’re not frying the air. That’s not a thing. Air fryers actually do exactly what toaster overs have been doing for decades. They’re essentially just a smaller convection oven that can sit on your countertop. The real innovation comes from the form of an air fryer. The removable basket design makes for both easy cooking and easy cleanup. Ninja has it’s own combination indoor grill and air fryer with a super big basket that happens to be on sale at the moment. The Ninja Foodi Smart XL normally sells for $280, but the 29% discount ends up shaving it down to an even $200—saving you $80 for a limited time.

This indoor grill may look to be on the smaller side, but don’t let that deceive you. That grill grate is large enough to cook up to six steaks at a time. Better yet, it can prepare 24 hot dogs at once. This thing is perfect for packing along to any tailgate or just a weird date night at home in which you and your partner house down a dozen glizzies each.

The tray has a large volume of four quarts, which is enough room to prepare up to two pounds of fried food. Plus, it can do so with 75% of the fat needed for deep frying.

You don’t even need to defrost with this Ninja air fryer. Just 25 minutes can bring your chicken breasts from frozen to perfectly charred and ready to serve. Cooking burgers? You don’t even need to worry about flipping. The superheated airflow is engineered to surround your foods so they cook evenly on both sides. You can always ensure your meats are cooking to the optimal temperature. The side of the air fryer even has a built-in meat thermometer so you can check in while cooking.

The worst part of cooking has got to be the cleanup afterwards. Luckily, Ninja makes this fairly straightforward as all the inner parts that food touch are removable and dishwasher safe. Just place the grill face and basket into your dishwasher after your meal is served.

Smart Cook System

The smart cook system allows you to easily configure the Ninja Food indoor grill to the proper settings to prepare any meal. It’s equipped with four different smart protein settings for cooking pork, beef, and more. Plus it has nine customizable setting options you can build out yourself.
