Personal Notes
Smart Lid Steam+Crisp method - the Ninja Foodi superpower! One function one lid no fussing. Butter under the rub = extra crispy golden skin. Garlic and onion in cavity infuse incredible flavor. DKG asked for this - first time using the Smart Lid Steam+Crisp! 🦞 Chef Claws suggested, family approved!
