Hi all,
The next batch of the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill has popped up as available for pre-order, due to ship on the 24th of May. With the coupon code WELCOME10 you can get an extra 10% off and bring the price down to 269.99 delivered to your door. It's not at the all time low, but its much lower than the prices from other retailers at the moment (JB Hi-Fi are currently at $349+ delivery with no stock).
I've been chasing one of these since a workmate showed us his nice juicy kebabs. It has as larger surface area for air frying and grilling but it's not as deep as some of the other air fryer ovens out there so keep that in mind if you are after one for roasting. Unlike the Smart XL Grill Pro model available overseas, this one doesn't have a powered grill plate so pre-heating is recommended for use with the grill plate as it this model uses the air fryer heating element to heat up the grill plate. It does have a temperature probe that you can insert into your meat and you can use the presets for the meat to program your cooking, ie. choosing medium rare beef/lamb, pork, fish, etc.
Accessories included: splatter guard, temperature probe, grill plate, air fry basket, cleaning brush. The splatter guard, grill plate and air fry basket are dishwasher safe.

Do you mean you just have to give it time to warm up?
