My nephew and one of my daughters has them....they both love them and keep telling me to get one. I'm not sure how much I would use it, so I haven't got one yet.

I have the 17” tabletop Blackstone. It’s all I need, but I’m usually only  cooking for two. I set it out on the deck to cook breakfast and smash burgers.  I bought the carry bag for it also. Can run it off the 1lb’s or 20lb.

As much as I like to bbq over charcoal,mid winter temps put a damper on grilling,however I  purchased a indoor smokeless grill/griddle a couple years ago,that works great, temps up to 450 degrees,add a little liquid smoke to the drip catching pan for that bbq flavor,no smoke in the house either..

So these are basically air fryers right?  Has anyone done bacon or a steak in a regular air fryer?  We have a nice one of those. I see these Ninja Foodies are $220 and up into the $300's.

This indoor grill I bought a couple years ago in not a "foodie" just a smokeless grill/griddle purchased online,was a good buy under $50,but yeah liquid smoke in the water pan,steams chicken on the griddle,catches fat dripping,add's great flavor by adding liquid smoke or fresh herbs to the pan of water.

Used the grill again last night LP,it's a "power xl" smokeless grill,I see they have them on sale for $15 these days,pretty sure I paid around $50 couple years ago.

Nice looking unit Snow.  The $15 is to use it for 30 days to see if you like it.  Then $33 a month for 3 payments if you like it.  I do like the looks of it. I will run it by the wife tonight.  Thanks

Not interested in split screen. I already have a locator in the boat, but not chip capable. I drove my buddies boat that has it, and absolutely loved being able to follow the structure in front of you. I'm still debating on the 7 or 5 inch??? Seems a big cost difference and I'm a tightass.  :rotflmao:

Ssay it ain't so glenn,you a tight ass? Guess the rumors are true,you gotta be the only fisherman I'm aware of that is thinking of down sizing his locater screen rather than up grading to a larger screen...I get the budget deal,but your retired open up those deep pockets.
