Ninja Foodi Beef Recipes Healthy

We have already shared how to cook a bunch of different pressure cooker beef recipes as well as air fryer beef recipes, but this is special. That is because this machine can do both functions in one so you don’t have to cover your countertop with a few different ones.

That means more counter space, fewer machines, and less pots to clean. All a win in my book. Most times I will cook one thing at a time unless I cook a casserole or our Ninja Foodi steak and potatoes dish.

If you love pasta you can make a one pot meal that way with veggies and meat combined with rice or noodles. We love those. Take a peek.

Beef Recipes for Ninja Foodi

You probably bought this pot to cook everything all at once, you can certainly do that if you’d like. Our favorite way to do just that is to make one of our Ninja Foodi casseroles. Using pieces from the cow specifically I will narrow them down from there….

• We will start with beef and noodles which reminds me of my Grandmother. Cooked in a thick flavorful gravy it is sure to make your family want seconds.
• Rather use rice? Try our pressure cooker beef stew casserole some night. Great with sliced carrots, peas, and all the things.
• After St. Patricks Day we make leftover corned beef chowder for dinner.
• Without any starches per say you can enjoy our Ninja Foodi stew that still includes the veggies and adds potatoes into the mix.

I mean you can make a ton of recipes with stew meat in this thing for a meal. Just make a batch of Ninja Foodi mashed potatoes and pour over the top for a real feel good meal. Our favorite and most popular one is probably Ninja Foodi beef tips you see here.

Should you pressure cook or air fry beef?

That depends on the outcome you want. You would use our Ninja pressure cooker recipes for an overall tender fall-apart protein. But if you wanted to dehydrate or get a crispy outside then the lid that is attached would need to be used.

For any of these you could choose to use one of our dry rub recipes too. Those bring a ton of flavor without the messiness of sauce. We use the tri tip one to make Ninja Foodi sirloin tip roast, so good. Here are a few questions you might have:

Thawed, you can follow our pressure cooker Mexican pot roast or Ninja Foodi roast beef recipe. They pair with carrots and baked potatoes you’ll have an easy dinner made in no time.

Can you cook frozen beef in Ninja Foodi?

Yes!! Speaking of time, the largest and unthawed type would take the longest but does turn out incredible still. If you haven’t made frozen roast in Ninja Foodi yet you are in for a real surprise. You’d never know it was rock hard about an hour before when you taste it.

How do I make Steak Pieces in Ninja Foodi?

I am telling you, our Ninja Foodi steak bites are killer for sure. My kids are obsessed with these because there is no cutting required on their part and every inch is packed with flavor. I use our dry rub to toss the pieces in at the beginning and cook to medium inside.

What else can you do with this cut other than just cook them as is. Like I said, I like to slice beef thin. Four reasons for this; it cooks faster, soaks up more of the marinade, gets more tender, and is easier to eat. That is a lot of pluses if you ask me.

Low Carb Recipes

Others you should try if you’re on the same wavelength is our Chinese pepper steak, beef and broccoli and/or Ninja foodi fajitas. Those have bell peppers and onions included so just serve with some small tortillas and you’re set.

How Long to Cook Beef in Ninja Foodi

That depends on how thick your piece(s) are but 10-60 minutes. Let me share a few tips with you too. First off you can use any of our Instant Pot recipes in this machine too. We have a lot of those including a pot roast, ground beef recipes and more. That pot can’t air fry so if you chose this model you can do it all.

Secondly, when cooking proteins you will want to allow for a natural release at the end, not quick release. That will keep the moisture inside the meat. That means leave the steam valve in the sealing position for 15 minutes to 30 minutes.

Typically you’ll always cook on high too. If it doesn’t say either way, high is assumed for pressure cooking. Air crisp has a lot of leeway when it comes to temp, like if you’re making beef jerky it is super low for a long time. Last but not lease, do NOT use the slow cooker function. It doesn’t work well friends, just use your old fashioned Crockpot for those types of recipes.

How can you brown meat in a Ninja Foodi?

Simple, this is just one of many functions it offers. Just press the saute button and keep the lid open. I always add a bit of olive oil before the meat so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot. Then you can go on to make one of many Ninja air fryer recipes or pressure cook it to tender.

You don’t always need to do this. When I make Ninja foodi corned beef I don’t do that at all, it can be skipped. If cooking from frozen you wouldn’t do this either. That would come into play if you were making a few Ninja Foodi frozen steak pieces too. Instead just pop those babies in, cook, sprinkle with salt and pepper when done.
