My all-time favorite way to cook whole chicken…I’ve used this method for years on my Big Green Egg and have a couple of videos posted of that but the Ninja …
Thank you I'm doing this today. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Good video jelly007, but man you cross contaminated everything from your spices to your oil sprays to your watch…C’mon Man!
Was the skin thin and crispy?
If you take out the grill part and just place the chicken on top of some carrots in the bottom pan and air fry, would allow for a larger chicken.
Thanks for the great review!!
We just got our Ninja Foodi Grill last week, took it for a test drive grilling chicken breasts tonight and it worked so well that we want to try a roast chicken next–your video was very helpful!
I hardly know how to cook without Lawrys seasoned salt and seasoned pepper–I put those on just about everything. The Weber Beer Can Chicken Seasoning is also a great one.
Costco sells an avocado oil spray that is a lot better than that Pam, might want to check it out.
😉
why didnt you try to fit the bigger chicken in, i mean we already know a small one fits like this 🙁
Hello John, I’ve been hesitating on whether to go for the ninja grill pro or the regular one, the one without the temp probe. I’m a beginner at cooking and I understand that the pro version pretty much tells you when food is ready. With the regular one I would have to check on the temperature with a separate thermometer. Is it worth getting the pro for this or for other reasons? Thanks for your videos, they’ll be very helpful!
You talk tooooo much man…just do your things!!!!! Thanks for sharing it..:)
Excellent! thank you sir
Thank you, you were very thorough!
I bought a Ninja Grill some weeks ago, partly or mostly after watching your videos. Its been sitting on my counter top looking all shiny and new. Until yesterday all I had done was stand close to it, stare admiringly and lift the lid a few times. Which I found strangely satisfying. Yesterday for first time use I roasted a whole chicken. At just over 3lb it fitted in nicely (without being spatchcockef). I poured a Lille olive oil, rubbed in chicken season and a little jerk seasoning. Roasted breast side down for 15 minutes then flipped for 20 minutes or thereabouts. It was so tasty and juicy. What surprised me was not a lot of juice in the pan when finished cooking and what there was seemed to be burnt. I thought here we go let’s get scrubbing but no just a quick wipe with a cloth and it was clean. Amazing!
TLDR Ninja Grill is amazing. Easy to use, produces lovely food and is so easy to clean.
BTW Love your videos Keep ‘em coming
John Sanders, you’re the man!!
Can you share the link for the cookbook you were talking about?
I cooked a 5.36lb chicken following your directions and it was delicious, however I did season overnight with lawrys, onion and garlic powder, paprika and fresh ground pepper . Spatchcocked is in my opinion the best way to cook a whole chicken on the Ninja Foodi. Thank you
I’m exhausted watching yes
16:05 is when the chicken is done.
Outstanding, common sense vid…good deal. Just purchased the 5-in-1 Foodi Pro Grill w/meat probe a few days ago, loaded it up with some thighs…turned out excellent! They got gone quick!
You talk too much about your scissors lol
I laughed and learned.
Good stuff Sir
Sooo much talking
Nice work, easy vid, I’m buying this!
"Aint a family on 🌎 that wouldn't eat this" I agree
I just cooked a 5.27 lb. in the Foodi Grill on the Air Crisp mode. 350 degs. for 1 hour and 10 minutes. I did 30 mins. breast side down and the rest of the time flipped upside right. I did not stuff it. Salt, pepper, and greek seasoning. Yummers!!!!!
thank god you did something right
hello . ur not to grill a whole chiken. you lost all concept……%$#@
how long did you cook it for once it started ccookig on 400
What was the total time
Don’t wash chicken please🦠
Hi John. I followed your tutorial for the whole chicken tonight and it came out amazing. I was very generous with the Lawry's and it made the skin a little too salty (who would have guessed that?). I used my probe thermometer to 155 and double checked with the instant read just like you said and it was cooked perfectly as it hit 165 in resting about 10 minutes. The breast may have been just a tad on the dry side. Next time I'm going to brine it a couple of hours 1st and go a little easier on the Lawry's. Thanks for a great step-by-step. Fast, easy, and delicious.
Amazon carries a real good Lawry`s all purpose chicken seasoning that size.
Hey Jelly 007. Love your videos. I have a question. Do you have issues with this grill smoking up your home. I have seen several 1 star reviews for that reason.
Great video love it!! Now I’m gunna go buy one 🥰
🙋🏽♀️Another Great & Useful video Sir!!
Love your Salmon and will definitely try this Chicken soon!
I have to watch my Salt intake so I will switch to a Salt free alternative. 👍🏽
Can you bake bread in the Ninja Foodi Grill? And let dough rise? Can you please make a video?
What was the total cook time ?
Is the cookbook you mentioned different from the one that came with the grill?
Excellent video presentation for the Ninja Foodi Pro Grill to prepare Spatchcocked Chicken on the indoor grill! Thanks John Sanders aka jelly007!
It looks like a work of art on that plate
Which one would you recommend over the other: the Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fryer or the Ninja Foodi Grill?
Did you dry the chicken after you rise it
I’m trying this on my new grill thanks
Could you do a video on making homemade jerky with the dehydrator function? Really enjoy the videos
Just bought a Foodi Grill, yesterday. Based on watching your shows. I have two instapot pressure cookers I love (and I'm experienced already with pressure cookers) and wanted to add an air fryer but have heard too many bad reports from folks who bought the new Instapot Vortex and Omni air fryer ovens (breakage, didn't work out of the box, hard to clean) – so went with the Ninja Foodi Grill. Didn't go for the Pro. Have a good thermometer already and like to do my own checking. My first attempt at using it will be a spatchcocked 3 lb chicken (locally grown, organic, free-range, fed on locally sourced non-GMO feeds). Our remote rural area is famous for locally grown free-range etc. meats of all kinds. I bought 20 of these fine little chickens from the grower because there is just my son and I. Saw a video on baking and roasting and yours on grilling. I'm going to grill. Wish me luck!
CornishHen: Will a whole 24oz cornish hen fit in the grill?
have you tried doing it in the crisp basket?
Hey John Your chicken looks great! I love your narration too! Going to get scissors that cut the bone! Thank you once again! Karen
Great video and chicken looks delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for demoing this product, and more importantly, showing that not everything goes as planned (e.g. the chicken wasn't quite done in some parts despite the probe saying its area was done). I like these types of videos.
I always do my whole chickens in my NuWave oven. I didn’t even think about using my ninji grill. Good video.
