Yep got a ninja foodie. Don’t use it a massive amount but it’s great for certain things. The dehydrate setting makes some mean beef jerky

Interesting, I've been dead against one but this changes things.

 

How much can you make in a batch and how long does it take?

 

I was looking into getting a dehydrator but for the price of the Foodi Max i might as well go for that instead

I usually buy one of the largest joints I can get in Tesco and do the whole lot in one go. It’s more than they recommend as they say to put a single layer on the tray, whereas mine often overlap. Takes 7-8 hours

Oh, and of course an additional 24 hours to marinade prior

They shrink as they dry anyway, just needs a bit of peeling apart and turning occasionally. As long as they aren't mashed in six deep.

I've made jerky in a dehydrator. I made about 250g worth (unmarinaded weight) which filled one shelf of the dehydrator. My dehydrator has 6 (or possibly 8 ) shelves, so could do a fair amount at once. It was really nice jerky, I should make it again...

This mornings scrambled egg.  Just 4 eggs, splash of milk and a wee bit butter chucked in on warm up.  8 minutes, job done!

23:16 and I've just seen off the second of two extremely oily sandwiches. The greenest things I've eaten today are the capers and pumpkin seeds in a pair of bacon and cream cheese rolls. Dill in both, pepper in one, chili flakes in the other.

And a bottle of Rennie for breakfast.
