>>  
>> I told Alexa, to preheat the Cosori at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.  It did.
>>  
>> The air fryer is not any noisier than our microwave oven.
>>  
>> After 5 minutes, it beeped.
>> You pull out the basket and set it on a heat resistant surface and let cool 
>> for at least 5 minutes.
>> Then, you put it back in and tell Alexa you want to cook a steak for 5 
>> minutes at 400 degrees.  (leave the basket empty, this is just a test.)
>> When it is done, remove the basket and again set it on a heat resistant 
>> surface and let it cool for 10 to 30 minutes.
>>  
>> It did not take 10 minutes to cool.
>>  
>> You are then ready to cook your first dish.  we decided to cook bacon.
>> Note, I let my wife put the bacon in the hot pan as I haven't gotten my 
>> silicone gloves yet.
>> We use thick sliced apple wood smoked Hempler bacon.
>> You preheat it to 320 degrees for five minutes.
>> Remove the basket and place the bacon in the basket with at least 1/4 inch 
>> of space between the pieces.  6 slices fit with 5 left-to-right and one 
>> vertical.
>> There is a bacon preset that cooks for 6 minutes at 320 degrees, we ended up

>> grease.
>> (interesting factoid: bacon fat’s smoking temperature is 374 degrees.  So 
>> keeping it at a lower temperature reduces the smoke.)
>> We are hooked.  Tonight, we did a whole roasted chicken.
>> It does not have a rotisserie attachment, so you cook it in the basket and 
>> flip it half way through.
>> It says a 5 to 6 pound chicken will take one hour at 320 degrees.
>>      Our chicken was a little over 5 pounds.
>> I used a herb and brown sugar dry-brined that is from the Once Upon A chef 
>> web site that was designed for a 12-14 pound turkey.  I cut the recipe in

>> You do not need to preheat the air fryer for the whole chicken.
>>  
>> You put it in the basket and either set it for 1 hour at 320 degrees or tell 
>> Alexa to cook for 1 hour at 320 degrees.
>> Half way through, you pause the cooking and flip the chicken over.
>> After it is done, you let it set for 15 minutes.
>>  
>> Let me just say that I will never use the regular oven for a whole chicken 
>> again!
>>  
>> It was perfect.  Very moist and the skin was quite crispy, but not burnt.
