Thanks for your video. I'm interested in the grill on the left (I live in Europe, so it's the Ninja Foodi MAX Grill & Air Fryer [AG551EU]). Do you know if it works with liquids? (Can the fan be turned off so that it doesn't make a mess with liquids?) E.g. is it possible to make stew, goulash or bone broth in this grill? And what about making lasagna or casserole?

How big a chicken can you cook in it? Does it turn out well? I want one but can't find one in store and hate buying "blind." Love the review, though.

The grill preheat is longer because its also thoroughly heating up the grill plate. That part is important when using the grill function.

I bought the original grill a couple years ago. Mine came with a silicone cleaning brush. You can also order these brushes from ninja. Mine cleans up quite well with this brush. I agree if using a sponge or cloth, would probably not be great getting in between the slots. Anyway, just found your channel. Good stuff!

@microsoftguy3324

@@TravelingwithJenny I do. Cleaning the lid is a royal pain. Mine looks dirty even though it isn’t. I looked at the new model and it looks like that has been improved. The trays and the grill plate clean up fine with the brushes. Sometimes I let it soak in hot water for 30 minutes if I don’t get it cleaned right away. It does a great job of cooking any meat you throw at it. Steaks to burgers. If I had to make a complaint it would be that it takes up a lot of real estate on the countertop. Beyond that, it is great.

I'm from Australia and the first time I've seen the option to how well you want your burgers was in a American style restaurant called Brooklyn Depot. First time seeing that option! I was like nope, I'll have the buger well done. (wth? No where else in Australia gives you that option.) I am not eating raw mince hahah.
