I have to admit that we were skeptical when we read "little or no smoke", but that's absolutely right. My husband does all of the cooking/grilling of chicken/pork/beef, so I turned this over to him. We tried hot dogs first (simple to grill), then boneless pork chops (a bit harder), and then frozen French fries (tough to cook outside of a deep frier); all came out perfectly with a great taste and no smoke whatsoever! And cleanup was a breeze, five minutes and done! The Ninja Foodi will be a great help this winter; no dragging out the grill and cooking out in the cold! This is a wonderful addition to our kitchen!
