I used the grill feature in my Foodi grill. This recipe will work with any indoor grill, you don’t have to own the Ninja Grill.

I used the 10×10 grill grate to make these 2 juicy ribeye steaks. You can cook any of your favorite cut of steaks, this is just what we wanted.

Pair these juicy steaks with the Texas Roadhouse Rolls! I have a recipe as well that will win you over.

Ingredients

• Steak
• Salt & Pepper
• Cornstarch

How To Make

Step 1: Start by creating your marinade or dry rub. I used a Texas Roadhouse steak seasoning for these ribeye steaks.

Step 2: Rub down your steaks on all sides, and wrap and store in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Step 3: Preheat your grill to the 500-degree mark. You want your grill to be nice and hot.

Step 4: Toss your seasoned steaks onto the grill grates and let cook to your doneness.

Again, this is a rough guide, the full directions for this Ninja Foodi Grill steak recipe is in the printable recipe card below.

Pair with some cucumber onion salad for the ultimate side.

Steak Doneness Guide

A guide to cooking steak to the doneness you prefer. The best way to ensure you get an accurate reading is using the smart probe that comes with some of the Ninja Foodi Grill models or buying a meat thermometer to check.

• Rare – 120 degrees Fahrenheit. This just takes a couple of minutes. The steak will have a red center, be soft, and tender.
• Medium Rare – 130 degrees Fahrenheit. It offers a warm red center with a slight brown crust on the outside. This takes about 5 minutes on Foodi Grill.
• Medium – 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It offers a slightly pink center with a firmer texture. It will juice a bit of blood when sliced hot. 7 minutes on the Foodi Grill, flipping once.
• Medium Well – 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This is similar to a medium steak but you will find it is less pink and offers a more crispy outside. It takes around 8 minutes on Foodi Grill.
• Well Done – 160 degrees Fahrenheit. This steak will have a fully cooked center, a nice crispy coated outside, and will be firmer texture. This takes about 10 minutes on the Foodi Grill.

We have a pellet grill, wood grill, and I never thought I would need an indoor grill. But this has been a game-changer for quick and easy dinners at our house!

How Does Ninja Foodi Steaks Compare To Grilled On Pellet Grill

I was pretty impressed with the turnout of the steaks. I found they offered a nice grilled look, and texture.

The flavor was delicious, and I didn’t notice much difference then cooking them on an outside grill. The one thing you lack is that smoked flavor. But, you could always buy some liquid smoke to add to your steak mixture as it marinades.

Overall, I am glad I bought this kitchen accessory. It has been fun to play with. It was a little pricey but I am happy with the investment.

Notes

Here is a rough guide on timing on cooking steaks in Ninja Foodi Grill. It will vary depending on heat on your grill of course.

• 5 minutes – medium rare
• 7 minutes – medium
• 10 minutes – medium well

You can use any cut of beef you would like. The quality of the steaks is key in the tenderness of your steaks. You will also find the flavor of the steaks vary a bit as well, on what type of cut you use. We tend to like NY strip, KC strips, Ribeye, T-Bone, etc.
