Been seeing lots of ads for the Emeril Air Fryer. Pictures in the ads look pretty good but how in heck can this thing take your just-battered fish/chicken/onion rings and pop them out better than a real deep fryer would? My guess is the only "fried" stuff you can "cook" in it is the frozen-and-already-cooked stuff that's barely worth eating.
Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.

Air fryers are basically convention oven. They do some things well, actually frying ain't one of them

Precooked breaded food and fresh chicken wings is what I use my air fryer for.

They do french fries good, but not onion rings. I think they do chicken wings better than a deep fryer.

I have 2, the Big Boss 16qt and a NuWave and will be eventually getting a box style with roti sire List of things ive cooked: Wings, leg quarters, thighs, bacon, grilled cheese ,pizza, hot dogs, fish fillets, pork chops and the list goes on an on. A recent discovery: fast food fries or onion rings that are soggy and limp by the time you get them home can be fixed with a few minutes in the air fryer
