Tips & Tricks Grill The oil matters For less smoke, we recommend using oils with a high smoke point-- such as vegetable, coconut, grapeseed or avocado oil. x3 Don't overcrowd Evenly arrange and space out ingredients in a single layer to ensure consistent browning and even charring. Batch cooking Empty the fat/oil from the bottom of the pot if batch cooking more than twice. For best results, allow the unit to run for three minutes between batches to reheat the grill grate. Air Fry Check your food temp The grill cooks quickly, so monitor foods with a thermometer. Internal food temperature continues to rise as food rests, so remove it 5°C before target temperature is reached. Shake, shake, shake When air fry crisping, check food and shake crisper basket frequently for even browning. Remove food at desired level of brownness. Bake/Roast Use oil for crispiness For best results with fresh vegetables, use an even, light coating of vegetable oil. Don't overcrowd Evenly arrange and space out ingredients to ensure consistent browning. Dehydrate Secure your food Secure light food with cocktail sticks so it won't be blown around by the fan.

After countless hours of recipe testing, our chefs have paired your favourite foods with a recommended temperature setting that will maximise grill flavours while minimising smoke. We've also created a list of popular ingredients with our recommended cooking directions. LOW (200°C) Best for bacon, sausages, and calzones, and when using thicker barbecue sauces. MED (230°C) Best for frozen meats and marinated food. HIGH (260°C) Best for steaks, chicken and burgers. MAX (up to 265°C) Best for vegetables, fruit, fresh/frozen seafood and pizza. FOR LESS SMOKE, WE RECOMMEND USING OILS WITH A HIGH SMOKE POINT--LIKE VEGETABLE OR COCONUT OIL--INSTEAD OF OLIVE OIL. If you choose to cook ingredients at a higher temperature than recommended, it may result in more smoke. Grilling Cheat Sheet Sirloin Steaks 2 steaks (400-450g, 3cm. thick) Pat dry.
