Ninja Electric BBQ

[Beezerk]

Do you have an outside electric point? I have one, but not specifically where I’d want to have a BBQ.

Yes, I ran in some sockets when I built the pergola

Do you all use the pellets? If so, are they tricky to get going?

Do you get the Ninja ones or do you get any old bbq pellets?

Not got one of these but I only use the official Ooni ones in my pizza oven now. I cheaped out once before and they just didn't get hot enough, so worth researching the pellets a bit.

Spill the beans which one, any accessories? I had a 15% discount voucher a couple of weeks back but it expired unfortunately.

It's the standard, small one. £229 but we had a £50 voucher so £179. I didn't get the stand, I have something it can go on, and we didn't get a cover as I'll move into the garage between uses. Basically, no extras then

I've got plenty of regular bbq stuff so we will see how it goes and whether I need extra things. I'm not as adventurous as you when it comes to bbq cooking, I might not need anything more

Might look in to a sideline of making mobile bases for these things seeing as they are so popular

There’s definitely a gap in the market, the price of the stands

Could someone share why is this product superior to a simple gas bbq? Can’t see it but happy to be persuaded it is

Not necessarily superior, just an alternative. It is simpler. No need to keep gas bottles, have a spare, keep replacing them, maybe have to replace mid cook. It's instant heat, as is gas to be fair, but it won't run out or need replacements.

we have got one, though ive never used it the wife likes cooking with it. we only have it as our cooker is an Aga and we switch that off once the weather warms up. i prefer the Gas BBQ myself

I see, thank you. Not an issue for me as my gas bottle usually lasts around 18 months for us and then it's an easy swap at the nearby garage

It’s much more versatile than a regular bbq, I haven’t used the oven in the kitchen for over 2 years.

We are like that with the air fryer

We used the oven a handful of times a year now

Kids parties to cook food

Christmas for the roast

Rest of the time the air fryer does the job

What makes it better for stuff that you could’ve done in the oven?

This goes back to the air fryer thread

They cook things better, quicker and using less energy than an oven.

My air fryer has replaced my oven for us as a family of 5 it's only when we have guests

I've just bought the BBQ from this thread aswell, looking forward to using it

Plus on an evening like tonight I'm cooking outside not stuck in the kitchen.

I made one of my own.I used some spare worktop from when I had the kitchen fitted and put it on top of the wooden frame.
Has two uses, one for putting plates on etc . whilst cooking and for cleaning,I put a large plastic tray to soak items in from the bbq. Very useful.

Pizza oven tables too, they cost a fortune.

We've got one, use it a lot - love smoking meat in there too - takes longer but bang a chicken in there with your choice of pellets and let it do it's thing.

We're going camping to Abersoch in a few weeks - the trip will incorporate a couple of junior opens for Jamie at Nefyn and Aberdovey as it happens. We've booked a fully serviced pitch with electric so will just take the Air Fryer, Ninja BBQ, and the kettle, and I reckon that will cover us for anything we need to cook.

You're such a modern man.
