I finally bought into the air fryer steak hype after hating it for 2 years

I was convinced air fryer steak would always be dry and sad, but my wife made a ribeye at 400°F for 12 minutes last week and it came out medium rare with a decent crust. Has anyone else changed their mind about something in the air fryer that they swore would never work?

Oh man, I was the same way with chicken thighs. Thought they'd be rubber city. Tried them anyway and now I can't even bother with the regular oven anymore.

Are you really getting better results with thighs though, @patricia905? I've been cooking for like 15 years and I still stick to breasts every time. Thighs never seem to cook evenly for me, always ends up with some parts done and others still raw. Plus that extra fat content makes me feel like I'm eating something heavy, if that makes sense. I know a lot of people swear by them but I just can't get on board personally.
