Using The Thermometer In Different Scenarios; How To Correctly Insert The Thermometer - Ninja Foodi EG200 Serie Manual Del Propietário

USING THE NINJA® FOODI® GRILL – CONT .
6 While the unit is preheating, insert the
thermometer horizontally into the center of
the thickest part of the piece of protein. Refer
to the chart on the adjacent page on further
thermometer placement instructions.
7
When the unit has preheated and
"ADD FOOD" appears on the screen, open the
hood, place food with inserted thermometer
in the unit, and close the hood over the
thermometer cord.
8
The progress bar at the top of the display will
track doneness. It will start flashing at the lowest
doneness and progress to the set doneness.
NOTE: When using Roast and Grill, the unit
will beep and display FLIP. Flipping is optional,
but recommended.
9
The unit will automatically stop when desired
doneness is almost reached, as it accounts
for carry-over cooking, and "GET FOOD" will
display on the screen.
10 Transfer the protein to a plate while "REST"
displays on the screen. Thermometer does
not need to still be inserted. The protein
will continue to carry-over cook to your set
doneness, which will take about 3–5 minutes.
This is an important step, as not resting could
lead to results looking less cooked. Carry-over
cook times can vary based on type, cut and
size of protein.

USING THE THERMOMETER IN DIFFERENT
COOKING SCENARIOS:
Cooking 2 or more proteins of the same size to
different levels of doneness:
• Set the Preset feature to the highest desired
level of doneness.
NOTE: To check the internal temperature
of other pieces of protein, press and hold
the thermometer button and insert the
thermometer into each piece of meat.
NOTE: The thermometer will be HOT. Use
either oven mitts or tongs to take the
thermometer out of the protein.
• Insert the thermometer in the protein with the
higher desired level of doneness.
• After preheating, place proteins inside the
grill. When the lower desired level of doneness
is reached, remove the protein without
thermometer.
• Continue cooking the remaining protein until
the next desired level of doneness
is reached.
Cooking 2 or more proteins
of different sizes:
• Insert thermometer in the smaller protein and
use the Preset feature to choose the level of
doneness.
• When that protein is done cooking, remove it
from the unit.
• Using oven mitts, transfer thermometer
to the larger protein and use the arrows to
the left of the display to choose its level of
doneness.
Cooking 2 or more different types
of protein:
• Insert thermometer in the protein with the lower
desired level of doneness.
• Use the Manual feature to choose the desired
internal temperature.
• When that protein is done cooking, remove it
from the unit.
• Using oven mitts, transfer thermometer to the
other protein and use the Manual feature to
choose the desired internal temperature.

HOW TO CORRECTLY INSERT THE THERMOMETER

FOOD TYPE: PLACEMENT
Steaks • Insert thermometer
Pork chops horizontally into the center
Lamb chops of the thickest part of the
Chicken breasts
meat.
Burgers
• Make sure the thermometer
Tenderloins
is close to (but not touching)
Fish fillets
the bone and away from any
fat or gristle.
• Make sure the tip of the
thermometer is inserted
straight into the center of
the meat, not angled toward
the bottom or top of it.
NOTE: The thickest part
of the fillet may not be
the center. It is important
that the end of the
thermometer hits this area
so that desired results are
achieved.
Whole chicken • Insert thermometer
horizontally into the thickest
part of the breast, parallel to,
but not touching, the bone.
• Make sure the tip reaches
the center of the thickest
part of the breast and
doesn't go all the way
through the breast into the
cavity.
NOTE: DO NOT use the thermometer with frozen protein or for cuts of meat 1 inch thick or thinner.
