Ninja Foodi pressure cooker air fryer steamer crock pot combo. Pretty amazing. I can pressure cook a small chicken, brush it with oil and herbs, and then crisp the skin to perfections in 30 minutes.
@4meAndyou i got the 8 qt. I love it. How did i ever live without it?

@PrivateHell sounds like its worth the $ then. I cook chicken in my convection cooker bowl but it takes an hour and a half for a small one (when I can find the small ones) or 2 hours for the larger ones. It’s very convenient though, just set the timer to one hour and flip it over when I put extra time on it.

@cherokeepatti It's perfectly cooked after 15 minutes in the pressure cooker...but then you want to brush it with oil and crisp the skin, and that is like baking it for 15 minutes in a small 400 degree oven. You could not fit an oven stuffer roaster in there, by any means.

@4meAndyou what else do you cook in it?

@cherokeepatti It was the first time I tried to use it. I stalled because I didn't read the directions when I first got it. It's a steamer, so you can steam anything you want. I want to try air frying sweet potatoes in it. It's a pressure cooker, so you can cut down cooking time on almost anything, casseroles, and even cakes!

It's also a crock pot, so I can use it for long, slow cooking to develop flavors. All fish and seafood can be cooked in a pressure cooker, and on Master Chef, I noted one of the cooks who was able to make risotto in the allotted time pressure cooked the rice first, and then sauteed it as you normally would.
