Frozen sausage biscuits ...Crispy perfect texture dough, hot juicy meat, Is there anything this thing can't do?

LOL

I have a new addiction, YouTube air fryer channels!

Tip #1 sprinkle baking powder on yur wings after you dry them, extra crispy!

I'm just doing small batches of everything, 5.8 at is perfect size for me, and with skewer rack can make all the kebabs

1. A fellow trucker buddy of mine raved about air fryers.

He was a big dude, could reach from the driver seat to the onboard fridge (Frieghtliner Columbia) and plop stuff into his fryer.

Yeah the fucker was insane, but he ran more miles than anyone I’ve ever known before Skynet/GPS

Me, I had a microwave and toaster oven in my rigs. Less money, less crazy.

4. Microwave soggyness a thing of the past and u can throw the toaster oven away, oven too

2. "Master race"? Uhhhhh wtf

[Baclava]

3. Oh you'll know, golden crispy everything, we are the cult of deliciousness,lol

[FreepFryer]

5. Did you know the phrase "master race" is closely associated with Nazism and anti Semitism? nt

[Baclava]

6. Of course, so what, it gets the attention, lol, i could have used superior beings, gods on earth

[edhopper]

17. It's offensive and unnecessary

could you change that in the OP? Thanks.

[FreepFryer]

18. So you used a term related to Nazism - on DU - just for the attention and lulz. Got it. (Nt)

7. Also a term for an age group for running and athletics sports. It got a bad moniker under Hitler

Good thing the prefix of "air fryer" was a head of the term...

BTW what brand of air fryer is everybody using? Stand alone or the ones in the oven proper?

8. What air fryer do you have? Looking into getting one. TIA

9. I got the 8.5 quart Comfee on Amazon for $70, a lot have very similar design, 7.5 in square basket

Super fast cooking, easy to clean, dont heat up the kitchen with oven, if frozen foods say cook for 30 min at 425, u just use 400 and cut time in half

Really made for wings and fries, small batch cooking on the counter top, works for me

10. Thanks

11. I have a cute little aqua one...

But haven't used it much. Is there a YouTube channel you'd recommend? I need some inspiration.

12. Fabulessly Frugal, I watch her alot! Do's n don'ts, shows you how to do stuff right, easy to listen

The Cosori unit she uses is almost identical to mine, she can cook ANYTHING lol

Easy to follow times and temps, especially!

13. Air fryer bacon

I’ll never cook it in my cast iron pan on the stove again. Bacon grease drips away from the bacon.

I use an air fryer lid for my instant pot.

14. Have you seen the air fryer/toaster oven combos?

What more could one desire in a cooking appliance?

15. My sister got one last year where u can roast a whole chicken on a rotissary, $230, never uses it

[flotsam]

21. Yep-I have one

First of all: "What Is an Air Fryer?
Essentially, an air fryer is a smaller, more portable convection oven. Instead of being shaped like a toaster oven, many air fryers are tall, sort of resembling a coffeemaker. It has a removable bucket with a handle, and inside that bucket fits a removable basket. " so there's that-I can cook larger batches (mine will take 2 twelve in pizzas) and it has a rotisserie which is the only way I roast meat now.

Here's the facts: https://www.thespruceeats.com/air-fryer-vs-convection-oven-4774315

And here's my (less than $100) unit: https://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-Convection-Rotisserie-Capacity/dp/B00NGYX6EO/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAgc-ABhA7EiwAjev-j2VLfZSOHoNHWGD8P6j2_m5h5Gda-e-YhC79mx5wtdMrtu7tiDvJ2BoCSzQQAvD_BwE&hvadid=484687880599&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9002479&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=b&hvrand=1063348970307533632&hvtargid=kwd-424746827735&hydadcr=7442_9611318&keywords=hamilton+beach+xl+toaster+oven&qid=1611983722&sr=8-8&tag=googhydr-20

20. I've Had One For About A Year & 1/2

I got a 6 QT Power XL Air Fryer Oven & I love it! It has a rotisserie that I have used a few times, multiple racks & a basket. I also got some oil sprayers so I only have to use a tiny amount of oil with it. I bake potatoes in it, as well as perfect potato wedges, wings & all kinds things. It's also great for reheating pizza.

I use mine a lot.
