today we plan to test the "Baking" function of our Ninja Grill .... to do so we plan to follow Green Mountain Grills Pellet Baked Beans recipe shown below .... looking forward to giving it a try

today to test the cold smoking feature of our Ninja Smoker/Grill .... bottom line, it works .... for the test we used three different blocks of cheese and happened to have a fresh green pepper .... the Monterey Jack, yellow mild cheddar, and Swiss all turned out really well .... the bell pepper did have hint of smoke smell but I couldn't taste any hint smoke

we've been keeping our new Ninja Woodfire Grill busy ....

1. we had a 2 pk of baby back ribs from Sam's .... we smoked one rack on our Green Mountain Davy Crockett Smoker and the other on our Ninja .... both were seasoned with our SPG and smoked at 250 degrees .... the ones on the Ninja were ready in about half the time of those on Davy .... I admit to being surprised that the ones on the Ninja turned out so nice .... no difference in taste, very similar in moisture and texture .... we could have smoked both on Davy but only one at a time on the Ninja

2. we used the bake function of the Ninja to make Baked Beans to serve with the ribs .... they really were good and will no doubt be fixed often

Ninja smoked Monterey Jack and red pepper jelly on a Club Cracker

Looks good where is the cold smoke setting on the grill and how long did you smoke the cheese

turn the selector knob to "Smoke" .... lower the temp as far as it will go and the last setting you will see on the screen is "CLD" .... once I had to push the flame button to start it lighting the pellets .... once I didn't but that could have been a setting left over from regular smoking .... I smoked the cheese for 2 hours. turned the cheese over at half way and did add some pellets at the start of the second hour

an optional Ninja griddle arrived today .... it seems to be every bit as well made as the OEM cooking grate .... my plan is to test it tomorrow to see just how hot the griddle's cooking surface becomes at the grill's LOW -MEDIUM-HOT settings .... I'm also curious to see how uniformly the heat is distributed across the cooking surface

earlier today on our Ninja, we grilled bacon while adding smoke .... once the Ninja completed the preheating process it took a little over 5 minutes to cook the bacon .... very pleased with the way it turned out

we decided to grill some pineapple slices for use in making hamburgers .... the Ninja grill made short work of grilling the pineapple .... sorry, it went so quickly that I didn't get good pictures .... after grilling, we put them into a bowl and poured the juice from the can over them .... that proved to be a good thing in helping to prevent them drying out while waiting to make the burgers .... bottom line, we will most certainly do this again

half pound burgers grilled in the Ninja at Medium heat not only looked good, they tasted even better
