How to Grill the Perfect Steak on the Ninja Foodi Grill
Cris here.
I love me a really good rib-eye steak. I prefer for it to be cooked medium on the inside and nice and charred on the outside. Mikey and Addie both prefer their steaks to be medium rare. So when we got our Ninja Foodi Grill, we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to share how to grill your steak the way YOU want it.
How Long Do You Cook Steak?
Cooking times for steak will depend primarily on two factors:
- Thickness of your steak
- If you have a thin steak, you will have to really watch (and reduce cooking times) your steak or you will always turn out well done.
- If you have a thicker steak, you may have to increase cooking times by a minute or two to reach desired doneness.
- Desired doneness (rare, medium, well done)
- You will need to add a minute or two for every level of doneness that you prefer.
You can use these methods for both outdoor grills and the Ninja Foodi Grill, however, cooking times may vary.
General Notes

- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
- All grills cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own grill and time adjusted as needed.

Absolute the best Rib-Eye Steak recipe! ! It melts in my mouth. You both are excellent! Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I never have to eat steak out again to get the perfect steak! Thank you very much!
Spectacular
It worked!
Thanks for walking me through my first Foodi Grill steaks.
So glad you enjoyed this recipe!
I had some concerns about cooking my very first steak on my new Ninja Foodi Grill so I googled it. You and Mike did a great job educating me. My steaks were delicious & the family each enjoyed their individual preferences! Thank you!
That’s wonderful Laura! It just makes our day to get comments like yours! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you and your family enjoyed the recipe!
You made me hungry. My wife and I bought a Ninja Foodie Grill the other day and I watched how you cooked a couple of steaks on yours. In an hour or so I am going to cook for my wife and i. She is at work and I want to shock her when she gets home. I really hope the foodie works out because we like simple foods that can be cooked fast. Hopefully the foodies will do this.
Ha! We hear that from time to time. 😉 I hope you and your wife enjoy a fabulous steak dinner tonight!
You’re killing me Cris😊 I’m appliance obsessed and have no more room for another one (right now).😉😉 Now might be a great time for “quarantine” spring cleaning and see if I can make room for the Ninja Foodi Grill🤔😁 I like my steaks medium! Thank you and Mikey for everything you do!! I love your family!🥰
