Hi all, well it took three attempts to land one of these rigs and I couldn't be happier. My first two purchases fell through as they notified me a week to 10 days after purchase in both cases stating the unit was not available> They refunded my money immediately. I found this one at Bed Bath and Beyond and it actually cost me less to purchase. Bed Bath and Beyond has on demand coupons and the one I got was 20% off. They also had free shipping so the unit price was $119 for the 1700w 5.3 Qt model. I highly recommend the larger 5.3 Qt capacity. So far we have cooked two batches of wings, breakfast sausage, Nathans hotdogs, Chicken & Vegetable Spring Rolls and fries. All of which turned out amazing. The spring rolls were crispy and flaky with great flavor. The breakfast sausage was some of the best fried links I have had. This will be our go to method for cooking sausage and franks. Where this thing really shines is cranking out the wings! Love me some hot wings and this thing rocks da wings. It has a chicken setting that cooks at 360 degrees F for 20 minutes. I pulled my last batch at 15 minutes and they were just slightly over done. When I say over done the inside seemed perfect but they were a little dark. The skin was crispy though and the flavor was outstanding. The pile of bones were proof I thoroughly enjoyed them. Next time I'm thinking 360 for 12 minutes. Clean up is a breeze with this thing. You will see in the video a quick rinse and wipe with a paper towel is all that was necessary. Do the math.... 5 minutes prep, 15 minutes cook time and your sitting there with a nice plate of home made wings to feed on. Cleanup is 3 to 5 minutes. This makes this handy cooker a time saver and will get the job done in a fraction of the time. There is a healthy aspect of it since your not frying in a vat of hot oil. This had nothing to do with my purchase. I avoid deep fryers not because of health issues cooking in oil but specifically because of the smell they make. Man they just flat out funk up your entire house until the next day. This thing didn't even release any steam or smoke. I could go on and on but I won't. I'm going to leave it at that and if your interested there is a intro and cook video I made below. See it in action.
Thanks for viewing and you all have a great weekend!
