5:42 am
this with a little salt and pepper and now i'm giving it a really good sear to get that beautiful color that you see here. so now i'm going to take this out, put it on my rack. >> got it. >> and this is where the magic's gonna happen. a little beef stock. you could actually do this, use your imagination, do whatever you want to do. i use a little red wine. you could throw herbs in there. >> o.k., so this is going to give the steam infusion that we were just talking about and it's also gonna give the flavor infusion at the same time. >> you can't do that in an oven. that's the beauty of this. come here and take a look at this. this is a prime rib that we cooked for less than an hour. take a look at this. >> wow, that looks perfect. >> let me cut you another piece. look at the juice in that. is that amazing? >> that is definitely cooked perfectly. >> but the fact that this cooked in under an hour, absolutely perfect. when i say goof-proof, taste that. right? >> that tastes awesome. now remember, unlike your big oven at home, with the ninja, no preheating is required, so no
5:43 am
wasting time for oven to heat up. >> stephanie: and look what else you can do with steam roasting. check out these ribs. >> mark: wow! >> they are so tender. the meat literally falls from the bone. >> you know, i know that if you try to cook ribs like that in a conventional oven, they can come out pretty tough and dry. >> i steam roasted a whole chicken. all i did was add lemon and rosemary for a little seasoning. then i put the chicken broth underneath. >> so that's the steam infusion. >> that's that beautiful steam infusion. >> also a flavor infusion coming through that. >> and 40% less time this took to cook than a conventional oven. wait till you see how juicy this is. look at this! absolutely... >> that looks perfect. >> so juicy. >> that is definitely one juicy chicken. >> [women laugh] >> take a look at this salmon with the apricot-mustard glaze. >> mark: beautiful. love the apricot mustard. >> cooks up quick and moist. take a look at this.
5:44 am
>> really, in just 10 to 15 minutes? awesome. look at these succulent dishes we prepared with steam roasting. prime rib au jus, whole roasted lemon rosemary chicken, sweet and spicy barbecue pork ribs, apricot and country mustard salmon and roast beef with a mustard crust. with steam infused roasting, you'll make great tasting meals faster that are so much juicier with less fat and less cleanup. >> i made the prime rib in the ninja and it cooked so much faster than it would have in my regular oven. it was moist, it was delicious. my family absolutely loved it. >> i cannot believe how amazing steam roasting is because it helps you get healthier meals on the table a lot faster. >> i am amazed by how fast it cooks and how much flavor it seals into the meal. >> steam roasting in the ninja is so easy. i don't even like to cook and even i can do it.
5:45 am
[♪...] >> our next cooking solution is searious slow cooking. most recipes have you searing your meats in a skillet, then transferring them to your slow cooker pot. but that means you lose all that flavor in the bottom of the skillet. only the new ninja cooking system allows you to actually sear, then slow cook in the same professional, non-stick pot, keeping all that delicious flavor in, so your favorite recipes taste better than ever and cleanup is easier because there's just one pot. >> i love that i can brown my meat and my onions at the same time. i can get this nice flavor, great texture, all in one pot. we're going to make a traditional beef stew here. >> show me how you do it. >> baby potatoes. baby carrots. >> peas, love the peas. >> frozen peas, right out of the freezer. >> frozen, no problem with frozen, o.k. >> no problem with frozen. a little bit of beef broth. you stir it around a bit. >> what happens after that?
5:46 am
>> eight hours later, mark, you're home, you're hungry. no problem. the ninja cooked all day while you were at work. >> that is terrific. that looks like a beautiful, home cooked meal. that is terrific. >> hey mark, you like pork sliders? >> absolutely i do. >> take a smell of that. it's a special sauce with apple cider, mustard and brown sugar. >> i was wondering what that was. brown sugar with apple and mustard, it smells terrific. >> i took a pork shoulder, seared it off, put the barbecue sauce in there, set it, covered it, five hours later, i have a beautiful dinner ready to go. >> that looks delicious. can i try that? >> you may. everybody loves these. >> the pickle is terrific, the meat is so soft. i love it. our slow cooking feature is totally programmable so you're able to prepare dinners in the morning, let them slow cook all day so they're waiting for you when you get home. and because it's a professional non-stick pot, you can even put the ingredients in the pot
5:47 am
in the fridge the night before, so they're ready to cook in the morning. you can't do that with crockery 'cause it might crack. >> i've got chicken wings. chicken wings with a nice brown caramelized setting. the fact that i could brown them first with the stovetop setting and then put in my ingredients, put the lid on, set it to slow cook and came home hours later to chicken wings that fall right off the bone. you know, mark, the last four years, i've truly used every make and model on the market and this blows out the competition. it is a fantastic machine and it is my new family favorite. thank you. >> you know what, thank you for saying that, stephanie. it is so much more than a slow cooker as you've seen. you have all those different cooking solutions. with searious slow cooking, your favorite recipes will have more flavor than ever. look at our beef stew, pork sliders, chicken tortilla soup, korean chicken wings, turkey chili, savory pot roast, pork chops provencal, sweet potato and lentil soup
5:48 am
and seafood stew, all made with ninja's serious slow cooking. >> searious slow cooking with the ninja is revolutionary. i can sear food and then slow cook in the same pot and i've never been able to do that before. >> a lot of times, people go for fast foods and you don't know what's in fast foods. you have all the control with your ninja and with the recipes. >> slow cooking is a way to get the meal started before i even leave for my day. and then when we come home, we're done. >> announcer: introducing the revolutionary ninja cooking system. order now and you can receive the ninja cooking system for just six easy payments of $39.95. now that's a great value! and listen to this-- when you order direct right now, we'll drop one payment, so it's just five easy payments of $39.95. but we're just getting started. we're also going to include the deluxe upgrade package absolutely free. you just pay for shipping

5:51 am
desserts that are more moist compared to ones made in a regular oven with all the fat. so we're making a box cake here, actually blending a cake mix in the ninja prep system in just seconds. with steam-infused baking, they'll be moist without the extra butter or oil and using less oil and butter is how the american heart association recommends you bake. remember, this is not like putting a dish of water in your oven when you bake. this is actually steam-infused baking for the most moist desserts ever. >> and the ninja is incredible for gluten-free cakes like the one we made here. many times gluten-free mixes, they call for an entire stick of butter and they're still dry. that's not possible when you're baking with steam. look how moist this cake is. we started only 20 minutes ago. >> the ninja is perfect for these moist mini vanilla cupcakes i just made. look how cute they are. >> stephanie: and i made mini
5:52 am
dessert cake pops. they're so much fun and so moist compared to dry baked cakes. >> now you can enjoy ultra-moist desserts guilt-free like lime kiwi cupcakes, strawberry shortcake, easy chocolate cake pops, mini cheesecakes, gluten-free cakes and cupcakes, all with 50% less fat and less calories. >> the steam baking is something i've never seen or never done before and it's been great because the things that i've made have just come out very moist and delicious. >> and the desserts by the way, you can make with a lot less fat. i just made these strawberry shortcake cupcakes. i only used half a tablespoon of butter. >> and my kids say to me, "wow, mom, that was great and it wasn't the same thing you made last tuesday." >> does it taste as good as mommy's normal or better than mommy's normal banana bread? >> better! >> better? oh. >> announcer: do you want to serve homemade meals to your family but just can't find the time? tired of wasting money on greasy fast food? then imagine if you could
