While I have only used my New Foodi Grill to do just that, grill, it's performance was well beyond my expectations. The timetable for each of the items I have grilled so far was spot on to the times listed in the cookbook and cleanup was a breeze. One night I cooked BBQ boneless ribs drenched in sauce. When it came time to clean, the baked on sauce just rinsed off just a couple swipes of a cleaning brush. If my Foodi does the other functions half as well as it grills this will have been a great investment !
