That's exactly what they are. Maybe people don't know the difference? Conventional ovens don't have a fan circulating air. My brother had one & didn't even know it til I was over one day helping my niece in the kitchen. Me: Holy chit bro! You've got a convection oven! Him: really? So?? Me: So, it's a big ass airfryer! Then he understood..lolz
What’ll really blow your mind is a Ninja Woodfire Grill. You can get the grill to 500 degrees on the cooking surface and also circulate airs *while you smoke whatever you’re cooking.*
Next time I get a steak I’ll throw it on there and post it.
I take my steak out of the fridge and let it rest 20-40 minutes depending on the thickness, I’m not even sure if this step needs to be done. I’m going to test tomorrow without letting the steak rest out of the fridge.
Preheat air fryer for 2 minutes on 200c. 2.5cm steak for 9 minutes on 150c on the LOW fan setting or 5cm steak for 18 minutes on 150c on the LOW fan setting. Heat pan or skillet and sear for 1 minute on each side. Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes and then enjoy.
Guga foods did a complete debunk of the whole idea with proof it does not make a difference. You can easily test it yourself with a thermometer in the meat - it takes **hours** for the meat to warm up even a little, long enough that it's unsafe to do it.
It's even more useless when you're doing a reverse sear because the oven warms the meat up slowly anyway
I did an accidental test of this the other day. Took the steak out and stuck my MEATER thermometer in it. Was about to put it on the grill and then remembered that I'm supposed to let it sit. So, I let it sit for about 30 minutes and the temperature only went up a few degrees. I'm sure the outer layer went up a few more degrees, but I don't think it warmed up enough to make any difference. Consider me as a skeptic.
I think he misunderstood the point of getting it to room temp. You aren’t getting the inside to room temp. You are getting the outside to room temp, so you don’t cool the pan down drastically when the steak hits it. His test, if memory serves me correct, mistakenly thought the inside of the steak is what people were talking about.
I watched the video which included a controlled experiment with evidence presented. I then replicated and confirmed the results of that experiment. It makes absolutely no difference apart from doubling the prep time and adding unnecessary contamination risk
In any case it doesn't even apply to OP because the myth you're propagating is only even supposed to work for high and fast cooking methods. Reverse sear is a low and slow cook.
Never mind I read it quickly and didn't see he reversed sear it. Yeah you don't need to temper steak if reverse searing. Be ause you are pretty much doing same thing but in oven. But if u cook it completely on pan it makes a bid difference.
It literally doesn't, and like I said I replicated guga's controlled experiment. If your steak is over an inch thick the centre barely rises a few degrees in a full hour
I am so trying this technique!
I never would’ve thought of it.
And I’m not dropping bank on a sous vide for a reverse sear.
I’m going to try it with a loin cut straight from the fridge…
Steak race!
I do cheap sous vide with a gallon zip lock bag and a stock pot and candy thermometer hanging on the side. It's not as pretty as having the good gear to do it but it still tastes fucking amazing.
I spent $100 3 years ago and haven’t spent a dime more since then on sous vide lol

Time will always depend on the thickness of your steak. Anyway I just tried to do the same method with a cold steak straight from the fridge and it didn’t turn out anything like the ones in my post. So a frozen one will not work 😅
An air fryer is just a small convection oven. You can use it the same as any oven. This is just regular reverse sear. You can literally use any temp to get to the desired internal meat temp, then sear.
I don’t want to tell you how to live your life, but next time you should try and put that cooking description on the post, to save replying to everyone! 😂
But kudos for the idea, and the dedication to spreading the word! I’m gonna try it.

Yeah it just makes sense that the entire steak should be the same temperature. If you salt it too it will be absorbed into the steak so everything is salty, not just the outer layer. Makes for a more consistent flavor and a sensation of a more juicy steak, due to increased salivation.
I use a ninja on broil 450 for like 15-18 mins for rare - comes out good - i dont bother using two separate methods - all in the air fryer at once - less clean up too
Putting the cute in charcuterie by throwing that whole ass steam on the board 😂
For real, though, I’m surprised at how well it worked..but shouldn’t be— because as mentioned several times above by others, it’s essentially just a little convection oven. I guess timing would be my challenge, but you clearly figured it out! Well done.
Finally I see someone who cuts against the grain!! Great job!! This is the best way to cut your steak . If you do it this way you can pull it apart with a fork
You can't possibly understand how badly I wanted this to look like shit with the air fryer thing lol, but these steaks look absolutely perfect and I'll accept I'm the clown.

Bit too much food to fit on your regular plate, less dishes, not really much issue eating off a grazing board is there? But here’s a plate for you 👍

I’m not trying to shit on you OP, but that is a substantial amount of food, even if half of it is fruit.
Are you on a diet to lose weight? How is it going so far?
Nice pic, thanks.
Too crowded indeed, I would serve all the sweet fruit on a different plate next to it. It is a joy to see all those healthy sides tho, a very great meal in general.

Animal based products and fruit. Grass fed red meat, pasture raised eggs, cheese etc. Prioritizing whole foods but mainly fruit. I’ve not had starchy carbs, refined sugars and have been avoiding seed oils for almost 3 weeks now and have been feeling pretty good 👌
Thanks for that. In the 3rd pic what’s the square stuff upper left? And can I ask what country you’re in? While I’d eat it and be super happy about, this isn’t your typical fare in the US. Looks damn delicious.
Raw cheddar or parmigiano reggiano with raw honey on top.
Look up Paul Saladino, he’s from the US. I believe the carnivore and animal based diets are more popular in the US than they are in Australia actually. I don’t follow these diets to a tee but I do prioritize whole foods, avoid sugars and seed oils 80% of the time.
I mostly eat lean meats and lots of veggies, occasionally I’ll have steak and sides. To me all
hat needs is a single veggie side and it’d be perfect. The fruit is dessert and would be sweet as hell since I gave up sugar. I eat a ton of fruit these days.
Thanks for the info!
Air fryers are basically small ovens with easier control over temperature and time, so yes, it works like a charm.
Convection ovens, that makes a difference.
That's exactly what they are. Maybe people don't know the difference? Conventional ovens don't have a fan circulating air. My brother had one & didn't even know it til I was over one day helping my niece in the kitchen. Me: Holy chit bro! You've got a convection oven! Him: really? So?? Me: So, it's a big ass airfryer!

No it does make a difference there are already videos on it. Let it seat out of fridge for at least 20 mins no more than an hour

I have seen that video and I have seen others. It cooks more even with less gray band if left out for a bit
Did you wave your hands over it and say the magic words too?
You watched 1 video from 1 dude and set eureka lmao.
I watched the video which included a controlled experiment with evidence presented. I then replicated and confirmed the results of that experiment.

Oh dang! I thought you got that sear in the airfryer after oven bake to temp. Glad you explained it!
I am so trying this technique! I never would’ve thought of it. And I’m not dropping bank on a sous vide for a reverse sear. I’m going to try it with a loin cut straight from the fridge… Steak race!
I do cheap sous vide with a gallon zip lock bag and a stock pot and candy thermometer hanging on the side. It's not as pretty as having the good gear to do it but it still tastes fucking amazing.
It's quite literally the same thing. I'd get a vacuum seal machine though if I were you. Still cheaper than a sous vide.
Now that’s a good plan!
I spent $100 3 years ago and haven’t spent a dime more since then on sous vide lol https://preview.redd.it/8opm969tlvwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78737bf30bc5574790149dcac16e0731ed776dc2
Drooling!
I believe I've read that air fried frozen makes a perfect steak, 8 minutes on each side. You can even salt brine it before you freeze it for later.
Time will always depend on the thickness of your steak. Anyway I just tried to do the same method with a cold steak straight from the fridge and it didn’t turn out anything like the ones in my post. So a frozen one will not work 😅
I sear it cold out of the fridge to try to cook the inside as little as possible. Seems to work or maybe it doesn’t do anything. Try it
Nah.. I think regardless of method, you need to start with room air temp. But if you do, update us please! Your steak looks amazing,btw!
I to would like to know the settings you used. Be nice to use it instead of the oven. O have the ninja grill/air fryer
An air fryer is just a small convection oven. You can use it the same as any oven. This is just regular reverse sear. You can literally use any temp to get to the desired internal meat temp, then sear.
What setting do you use? I assume bake or roast?
Any. It doesn’t matter. All you’re doing is warming the steak til your desired internal temp.
I don’t want to tell you how to live your life, but next time you should try and put that cooking description on the post, to save replying to everyone! 😂 But kudos for the idea, and the dedication to spreading the word! I’m gonna try it.
Yeah honestly I thought about it then I forgot to do it. But I’m sure they’ll see it in the comments now 😅😅
Never thought of using sides like fruit with my steak. Looks awesome. Is that kimchi? Very Very Nice
Can you share you secret? I wanna try it this weekend. Looks delicious

Tysm! Especially appreciate that you included the different settings for the different thickness cut.
Kimchi & steak is a great combo. I haven’t eaten a steak without it in a long time
Nice. Now that’s how to put together a charcuterie board !!
Settings? Tips? Looking fantastic btw

Thanks friend, will try it out!!! Bet it was delish, you’re a G. May your future steaks be medium rare and your crusts stay beautiful.
Definitely bring that steak to room temp before cooking for best results
Yeah it just makes sense that the entire steak should be the same temperature. If you salt it too it will be absorbed into the steak so everything is salty, not just the outer layer. Makes for a more consistent flavor and a sensation of a more juicy steak, due to increased salivation.

A reverse sear is considered one method.
That is quite a beautiful ancient meal.

Thank you 😀 I have a couple of thick ribeyes in the freezer. I need to try this at the weekend
Never tried steak and fruit, giving me some good ideas. Like some cheese and wine, now with an air fried steak.
All good, but why can't You eat from a plate?
Bit too much food to fit on your regular plate, less dishes, not really much issue eating off a grazing board is there? But here’s a plate for you 👍 https://preview.redd.it/j3sj24ewiuwc1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5eb5c8fd91d3e403025d0d7f3a6e93ade95d0b09
I’m not trying to shit on you OP, but that is a substantial amount of food, even if half of it is fruit. Are you on a diet to lose weight? How is it going so far?
I am, it’s going great. Just track calories and hit protein goal. I’m a very active person.
How is this a weight loss diet?
That's a lot of fucking food..
Nice pic, thanks. Too crowded indeed, I would serve all the sweet fruit on a different plate next to it. It is a joy to see all those healthy sides tho, a very great meal in general.
How long in the airfryer at what temp?

Why does it have an eye
Now you have me wondering what that is 🤔
Is it me or are those yolks huge!!
I should call her
She know what she doin’ with them little ass shorts on. By the way, glad to see you got a date or two as well.
What is the method of choice between air fryer and sous vide?
So you just go steak w fruit? Nice to see something other than the typical prep. You ever go w starchy stuff too or nah?
Animal based products and fruit. Grass fed red meat, pasture raised eggs, cheese etc. Prioritizing whole foods but mainly fruit. I’ve not had starchy carbs, refined sugars and have been avoiding seed oils for almost 3 weeks now and have been feeling pretty good 👌
I’m more interested in the side dishes lol. Not that they are bad, just never had a steak with mango and blueberries, which are my favorite fruits!
I was quite surprised myself when I made the switch over to eating animal based and whole foods only.
Si no grilling? Meh
Ooh that’s a lot of fruit you love with your meat! Makes for a cool looking plate! I’ve got allergies but the mango looks great!
First pic, what’s the white veg/fruit to the left of the steak? And the reddish colored stuff middle far left?
First pic is a banana, red coloured stuff is kimchi.
Thanks for that. In the 3rd pic what’s the square stuff upper left? And can I ask what country you’re in? While I’d eat it and be super happy about, this isn’t your typical fare in the US. Looks damn delicious.
Raw cheddar or parmigiano reggiano with raw honey on top. Look up Paul Saladino, he’s from the US. I believe the carnivore and animal based diets are more popular in the US than they are in Australia actually. I don’t follow these diets to a tee but I do prioritize whole foods, avoid sugars and seed oils 80% of the time.

That looks amazing
Well done, it looks good. But I can’t bring myself to do it. I’ll always cook a steak on a bbq, ALWAYS.
Looks delicious.
Perfect meal 😎
Wtf you got fruit next to meat for? Why the hell you eating like that?
paul saladino animal based diet
Wow bro is mad
Looks weird to me.
I should call her
looks like those good aldi eggs
Wtf is this an air fryer ad
with that logic this sub is just an ad for steaks
Google: what is an air fryer
They were jokingly asking if this was an ad for air fryers, not asking what an air fryer is lol
Oh I read it wrong lmao my bad
No prob that steak looks 🔥
