I have a Ninja Foodi air fryer/pressure cooker/dehydrator etc etc and I LOVE IT. I use it almost every day and will never go back to frying chicken in all that oil. Super easy to use, easy to clean. Pressure cooking eggs is the BEST way to make hard boiled eggs. I now make deviled eggs almost weekly ‘cause the shells practically fall off the egg. Also, if you have a dish that requires stove top cooking and then putting it in the oven, you can do it all in one pot. I made my husband and boys get me a Ninja Grill for Christmas and use it just as much as the pressure cooker. Between the two foodis and our smoker I rarely use my oven.

As a matter of fact, I will be pressure cooking some corned beef tonight using some of my hubbys homemade garlic beer as the liquid. Yummy stuff!

Smoker here too. Did two spatchcocked chicken, a bone in pork sirloin roast and an eye of round roast for slicing thin for sandwiches. I ran it a little hot with bigger flame than usual so it didn't give anything a heavy smoke flavor. Chicken skin is rubbery and useless and I can't be bothered trying to grill it after smoking. Our only grill is also wood fired. As is our only heat via wood stove. We live an oak/hickory forest so it works. There's also wild fruit trees, plum and cherry.

Something thing I use a lot is the instant pot. Boiled eggs, rice, both a one button operation. Pressure cook meat and dry beans. Steam fresh frozen veggies.

We love our small kitchen appliances. Got the usual microwave, toaster oven, a meat slicer, deep fryer and an Oster Kitchen Center from the 70s/80s with just about every attachment available. Blender, mixer with kneading hooks, food slicer with 8-10 blades, meat grinder, ice cream maker. Collected at various thrift stores in FL after the new Kitchenaids came out and everyone upgraded. I've got extra motor bases and attachments too. I grabbed all OKC stuff I could find.

Wife's been mentioning wanting an air fryer. Will have to get one soon because like others, I'm getting sick of the deep fryer. Real pita when you've got something that's been in the freezer for a while and has ice on it. Had a couple of overflows.

I want to make more outdoor cooking stuff too. Wood fired pizza/bread oven.(we have clay) Rocket stove for the pressure canner. I've got thousands of trees to cut down and make pasture. Gotta do something with it.

My smoker made from three water heaters.
