Woodfire Pro Connect XL Electric BBQ & Smoker, Blue Black OG901UK

I’ll be honest: I used to only grill a few times during the "lovely" Irish summer. Since getting the Ninja Woodfire Pro XL, I’m out there every single week regardless of the rain. If you’re on the fence, just get it. It’s easily the best addition to my kitchen & patio in years.PROs:1. Convenience is King & Speed:You cook no matter the weather. Pre-heat takes only 8-12 mins and you don't wait to light up charcoal, no guessing if it’s hot enough.2. The Probe:Use it correctly and you get perfect, juicy, stress free results every time. Clear cooking times and no more guessing or undercooked food, no cutting into meat to “check”.3. Multifunctional:Yes, it’s a grill - but you also get roast, air fry, smoker, and even an open-lid grilling option. And you can add smoke to any cooking mode with the press of a button (smoker mode just has it on by default).4. Outstanding Results:The results deserve a special mention. Between the very helpful booklet Ninja provides and the temperature probe, the food comes out amazing! And the smoker… wow. That became our most-used function by far. Meats and fish both come out incredible. Seriously - try two whole chickens in the smoker as your first go and thank me later. Simple, fast, feeds a crowd, and delivers reliably perfect results. Every friend who’s tried the food so far just went:“Wow...what kind of sorcery is this?!”5.Pellet Tip:You just need a hand of pellets in the slot - it is more than enough! Just make sure you fill it to the top and they are slightly compacted so they ignite properly.6. Cleaning tip!The grill plate is removable and washable, which is great - but here’s a genuine tip you’ll thank me for if you plan to use the smoker a lot. In smoker mode, the plate itself doesn’t heat, so all the grooves just collect grease. Lots of grease! I strongly recommend getting an additional Ninja flat plate. It will save you around 15 minutes of cleaning every single time. I also have the Ninja brush - it helps, but the flat plate is the real game changer. Trust me it worths every penny, time and frustration that finds you when you wanna cook something fast and you forgot you did not clean the grill plate.7. The Looks:And finally, looks - not a deal-breaker for most, but I think it actually looks pretty good on the patio too.CONS? TO NOTE:One of those products that I really struggle to find bad things. More sort of little wishes. Some might wish it was even larger, or say it’s not the same atmosphere as an open fire grill. But for me, the real wood smoke, consistently great results and convenience outweighs any minor minus.Final Verdict:Great product which I can boldly recommend. Probably the only grill you will ever need.Hope it helps & Happy grilling friends! Cheers!

This is a fantastic bit of kit. Everything so far has been cooked to perfection. Ribs, Whole Pork Loin, and whole chicken all smoked.The Whole Pork Loin was 2kg. All cooked using the meat probe linked to the Ninja App. Didn’t check it once, carried on other tasks. Notified when temp reached and cooking stopped, then timed a resting period.

Let's get the bad out of the way first, on arrival it didn't work on smoker, as others have found the trip plug simply cuts out at the end of the ignition cycle. The trip is set at 10ma which is no doubt great for safety, but no good if it doesn't work. Trouble is by the time you have discovered this you have probably thrown all the packaging away and in any event sending it back won't help as a replacement will almost certainly do the same!My outdoor supply has a 30ma, so I simply put a plain plug on the unit and bingo all works as it should. An alternative would be to take the existing trip plug off and replace it with a unit rated at 30ma, in either case of course that will almost certainly invalidate your warranty!Despite this problem I've given it 5 stars, first trial of burgers and sausages cooked in just 18 minutes from semi frozen, and I can honestly say I've never had bbq this well and evenly cooked, and the smoking was really effective, again something I've never been able to achieve on our gas bbq with wood chips. I'm so impressed, I'm going to move our gas BBQ on! Playing with the phone app was great as well, I think it will be even better when I use the probe, and will probably order another as we cook different meats at the same time.Be prepared to change the trip plug and you won't be disappointed, recommended.

I’ve had my eye on one of these for a couple of years, but always differed. Then the new XL Connect came out and it’s the beginning of summer so I went for it. It’s absolutely great, I was concerned about flavour etc being electric, I need not have worried, if I served up anything I have cooked to you and you did not it was on electric you would never know, smoker is great, be warned it really does impact the smoke flavour, on slow roasts for a couple of hours or more no problem, on shorter cook stuff, I’m having to temper it so it does not over power. The smoker is not a gimmick. It really does add the smoke flavour. The app is fantastic, I’ve set stuff slow smoking and then gone up the woods with the dog and can adjust accordingly if need be. How cool is that. I had the problem with it tripping out on the ignite feature for the smoker: done some googling and realised in my case it was because I was using a 25 meter extension cord on one of them spindles but only uncoiling 5meters which is what I needed, I never realised that when coiled it really reduces the charge it can give so the Ninja was tripping out. I bought a 5 meter extension so now it is fully uncoiled and not a problem since. When I turn the Ninja on I hit reset, then test which then clicks and reset again. Happy days. Just mentioning as I have seen some people mention it tripping out so this could be your solution. If you are umming and arring on this. Go for it, it cooks so well and loads of flavour and meat always really tender, like the best barbecue you ever done each time with none of the hassle.

I love it. So versatile for cooking all kinds of meals. The smoker feature is excellent. The satisfaction from slow smoking your first brisket and doing that Juice squeeze. Priceless!

I've now used it a few times and I'm very impressed

This is really a first impression review after limited uses. Our background is we love garden meals from a BBQ and over the years have had everything from little table top Hibashis to large gas ignition kettles. This is our first experience of using anything other than normal fuel though.We were considering a Woodfire for those occasions when we just wanted a bbq meal for the two of us so not worth powering up our large kettle BBQ and maybe also as a backup for big family events when our normal BBQ is struggling with capacity but I can see the Woodfire getting a lot more use than expected.The fist impression was very good except getting the package up the stairs and into our town house garden as It is seriously heavy !! Fortunately the makers have had some sympathy for the buyer as the box lifts off it rather than try to lift it out of the box. Getting it ready for use was little more than just removing all the packing.Plan A was to place it on an existing garden work surface we use when BBQing but it seemed a little high so a quick order was placed for the Ninja base. The base is highly recommended and worth the extra as it is just right and the steel legs adjust for height.Now on to first use. We decided on some chicken breasts as an easy meal for testing but it did take a while to read and digest the instructions. I am sure they could be a lot more straightforward. In the end it was a lot easier than the instructions seemed to indicate. Fill the wood hopper and turn it on via the electrical safety device built in to the mains plug, select Woodfire on the display and plug in the temperature probe after inserting it into the chicken. Now the hard part. Select Chicken on the display and press Start. Oddly enough on a stone cold BBQ !! That's it.When the chicken reached the correct temperature the display on the front changed to GET FOOD and we enjoyed a perfectly cooked meal with a wonderful BBQ taste. Cleaning up consisted of running the grill under the tap and wiping out the inside of the lid.If there is a downside it is that it really is too easy. It seems to be a male skill to cook with BBQs while ensuring the beer and wine is at a suitable temperature and safe to drink while the partner does the boring part of getting salad and vegetables ready. Really with the Woodfire I have little to to other than spend a little more time checking the wine.Now we just need some warmer weather.

Fantastic bit of kit, plug it in and off you go. No messing around with getting the coals hot and cooks just as good if not better.We've only used the bbq but its amazing.

It’s number oneI tried different models but this model is amazing

Eine Perfekter Ersatz für unseren alten Grill. Durch die Smoker Funktion ist das Gerät idea. Das Fleisch wird perfekt gegrillt. Ob Fisch, Fleisch, Gemüse alles wird perfekt und besser wie auf dem normalen Grill

Uzun zamandır her türlü ızgara denemiş birisi olarak yazıyorum. Grill fonksiyonundayken ; Elektrikli ızgara + Airfryer şeklinde çalışıyor. Alttan ızgara izi kalacak şekilde ısıtırken ızgarayı, üstten de sıcak hava üflüyor fanı ile. Bu yüzden de muadillerine göre hızlı ve eşit pişiriyor. Et vs sadece dışı değil, içi de iyi pişiyor.Bence güzel bir ürün, kendi kategorisinde tek.

Das Gerät kann echt eine Menge und ist leicht zu reinigen. Bei Ninja selber sogar 30 Euro billiger als bei Amazon. ABER VORSICHT! Es wurde mit einem UK Stecker für englische Steckdosen geliefert. Da ich keine Lust hatte das Riesending wieder einzupacken , habe ich einen Adapter für 6 Euro dazu gekauft. Man kann auch den Stecker umbauen. deswegen 1 Stern Abzug
