Misc. is an air fryer worth it?

Title. Honestly haven't jumped on the air fryer bandwagon but the temptation stands. Are they worth the price?

Well, I am a man and I ain't go no opinion on it because women do all the cooking, but...






I love it when I use it. It does make cooking easier. It even cooks bread. So, I'd suggest it.

Get to it! I've fried carnitas in it for tacos and is so hnnng without the deep-frying, basically the meat uses its own fat to fry. So worth it.

Happy new year! I lurk from time to time, but life is busy! Hope you're having a good year so far, and the cleaning is easy. It comes apart in tree. I've yet to have to soak it to wash, straight use a napkin to get extra fats/crumbs off, then regular dish soap and water.

If you have a convection broiler yes.

A countertop airfryer is pretty convenient though. We use ours 5-6 times a week minimum.

My only advice is buy a bigger one than you think you need.

brb kebabs
Fried Tilapia sounds hnnng. How long does it usually take you in your air fryer?

yep i used to do my wings on a rotisserie basket attachment on my grill, but the air fryer cook them shts perfectly. be careful with those small air fryers because they are way too small if youre cooking for more than yourself.

i got this one because i wanted to save counter space. chucked my toaster oven and got this because he can handle that job + air fry. helps that it actually looks good on the counter.

french doors, excellent price

Depends on which one you get. Mine sucks for cleaning tbh, but overall it was a great purchase for me. It can get that crispy feel for some breaded foods that you can't reproduce well in a regular oven.

Fries turn out really well in an air fryer, and certain dishes I make where I would normally airfry cook great in the airfryer. Appearances is a different story for some foods though.

Overall, I recommend getting one.
Just keep on going.

Wings at 400°f for 27 minutes. I do a very quick spray of canola oil on them before cooking (not sure if it makes a difference or not). Flip them over when there's about 10 minutes left. Should be very crispy. Then add your favorite sauce when you take them out. 10/10
