Air fryers

[Jeremy K]

Some people just like having the power of the star rating at their finger tip

Got one a couple of years ago as a Christmas gift from the kids and it sat in it's box in a cupboard for over a year until they asked how we liked it. Got it out and gave it a trial run and fell in love with it, began using it just about every day myself. My only complaint it was only a 3.5 qt capacity and for a glutton like myself it was not big enough and was always doing two batches.

Got on Amazon and checked for a larger capacity model with a decent rating and went with the model below, twice the size of the first model this one you can pour a whole large bag of fries or chicken tenders-wings, or a whole chicken for example and get things cooked in one shot.

Just bought egg roll wrappers to use to make my own pizza rolls. Going to make spicy Italian sausage ( venison ) and Costanzas pepperoni mixed ones soon

This is a good video about air fryers.  If you get a convection oven you pretty much have the same thing and it will probably cost you less and will give you greater cooking capacity.

The commenters do not agree and make some good points though

I don't know from what I heard it seemed like they both were coming to the conclusion that the oven was probably the overall better option and for a better price.

The majority said the air fryer was done before the oven could pre-heat

these things were all over the place on sale during the holidays, I'd say wait and get a killer deal.

Just bought the Emiril Lagasse unit, little pricey but it air frys,convection cooks, toasts and also has a rotisserie which will do a large chicken.A good friend recommended it so hope it works.

I was gifted the Power Air fryer Oven it has racks instead of the bucket. So far I am a fan but have just done wings on it which come out awesome. Next up fried pickles!

[squirrelwhisperer]

Can any of these be used to dehydrate venison for jerky? Can the temp be set low enough? That would be great. 

[oldkevin]

Emiril Lagasse 360 can have not made any in it yet, but going to try it later this year.

This might be the one I saw on TV . I saw the Emeril Lagasse Air Fryer that works as a Air Fryer , Roaster , Toaster , Dehydrator and has a Rotating Rotisserie . The unit has removable racks . Right now , it goes for $200 . Looking for a deal .

I think my wife got it on Black Friday for a real good price.

Im curious how an air fryer compares to a convection oven, and convection baking in a racked pan, so air can get underneath??

i notice convection baking cooks a lot faster, sometimes too fast for whatever it is you are baking.

You always have to adjust time and Temp lower for a convection oven from the recipe.
