The new “what did you do to your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXVIII

I also picked up a new kitchen appliance. I have a small (3qt) Instant Pot Ultra that I really like but just don't use that often. I just got the Instant Pot Air Fryer (8qt) and let me tell you, it is amazing. I made up enough dry rub for about 20 lbs of wings last night. It will be getting lots of use

So those air fryers are the real deal? I think I'll get one.... I love wings!

Yea. I absolutly love mine. Cosori 5.8qt model. It's a glorified convection oven so hot hair circulates more freely than in a stagnant traditional oven. Things def come out crisper, but it's still a drastic difference from true fried foods.

Both my microwave oven and full size oven also have convection function. It's the best way to cook bacon

The air fryer is on another level though. As long as you give space among the food for the air to circulate it is perfection every time. A full size convection oven gives you more room of course, but the air fryer gives better results from what I can tell.

Compared to a deep fryer, I agree it's meh. But a bunch of stuff that can be deep fried still comes out great in the air fryer. Just different.

Completely agree. Especially for wings and fries.

I’ve been looking at that Foodi slip up counter top oven that does air frying too. Still trying to justify $250 on it. We have an air fryer that I can’t tell you the last time I used it. I was considering the Foodi for warming up pizza.
