What is A Ninja Foodi Grill
The Ninja Foodi Grill is a pretty awesome kitchen appliance. Not only can you grill, but you can dehydrate, air fry, bake, and roast.
It is a 5 in 1 appliance that allows you to do a lot using one device.
How to use Ninja Foodi Grill
- Select what you want to cook.
- Use the proper container – grill for grilling, remove that for air frying and baking.
- Use the selections on the front, to pick if you want to grill, air fryer, bake, dehydrate.
- Then cook as the recipe directs.
How to Clean Ninja Foodi Grill
Cleaning has been really easy for me! I was shocked how all the pieces come out and you can really clean all pieces with soap, water, and a soft sponge.
The Ninja grill air fryer has a really nice enamel that wipes away food. The one issue is the grate that is attached to the top, it can trap in grease. I take it off between each use, let it soak, then wash as well as I can.

Cons Of The Ninja Indoor Grill
- It does take a bit to preheat, so take that into account.

- The Ninja Foodi Grill XL is a bit bulky so you need space to get the lid open and closed. I ran into issues with our cabinets.
- For grilling, you will not get the same flavor as a seasoned grill would.
