Cj, you're a great presenter. Change nothing, man, and keep on showing us great recipes. You clearly know your stuff, and the way you've showcased the Ninja grill makes me feel like I can be a pretend pit master on my condo balcony. I'm really looking forward to getting one soon.
Thank you!!
The Ninja recipe is probably good for someone who has never made ribs before. But, once you learn some techniques through trial and error, and watching videos like this, you find your own way. Having done ribs before, I know moisture is key during cooking. This video had good tips for me, especially for wrapping to finish. Butter. It makes so much sense!
You saved me a fortune on ninjitsu lessons, and a trip to an obscure Japanese forest. Thanks to you I'm now closer to my dreams of being a ninja master!
Thank you!!
Just got the woodfire pro a few weeks ago. Been using your recipes on chicken and pork shoulder ribs learning how to use it. Feel I'm ready to try the St. Louis ribs now following your recipe. I have not been disappointed with any of your suggestions! Your guidance is perfect for a newbee like me!!! Simple and easy to follow. Keep the recipes coming!
This was awesome! More of these videos!
Do the jerky your way vs ninjas!
Oh, come on now CJ, it's a no brainer!!! CJ's ribs of course!!!🎉🎉
Lol! Yes!!
That is awesome. Side be side tests are the best. Keep up the great videos and the great shameless plugs.
Lol! Yessir!
I'm using your way today! Thanks for the great video
Hope you enjoy it!
greets legend from Venezuela, my ninja woodfire is arriving very soon so ive been watching your videos
Thank you!
Yours looked so much better. The bottom line is the Ninja recipe is just throw them on and cook till done. The extra work makes for better flavor. Great video! Thanks!
I agree there just the basic, you have to tinker with the recipe yourself.
Thank you!!
Excellent work on the ribs. I would like for you to try the lamb chops.
CJ thanks for the late night video your rib's look really delicious have a great week brother it's about time you gave some food to Mrs CJ she is always feeding you het goodies 🍺😁
Lol!! Thanks!
A nice hack I've been doing is unplugging my smoker when it stops smoking which is usually about 30-45 mins then I plug it back in with a fresh batch of pellets. It will ignite the pellets and give you wayyyy better smoke flavor
Thanks!
You can hold the woodfire button and it will ignite the new pellets during the smoking process instead of having to shut if off! :)
Ooo, i didn't realise you had your own rub; nice!
Just got my woodfire pro and have to say I absolutely appreciate the videos you put out. I'm about to do the ribs your way and can't wait to taste the finished product. Keep grinding brother! Thanks for all that you do
Thanks! Cheers
CJ, well...the sauce you used and bragged on sounded so good we drove a 3 hour round trip to pick some up. Cooking up some ribs this evening but using my good ole favorite, Sweet Baby Rays Sauce. I am thinking the Japanese sauces are going to be amazing on Chicken breasts.
Right on!
Y’all are adorable, had me cracking up 😆
Thanks!! 😁
It was all good! But i think both should have been the same way! If they are wrapped up they would be like that and all the sauce that went on over nothing on the other? Would be better as well. They both had to be done the same way to be fair
Very nice Job CJ!! Can you do the smoked Pit Beef Sandwiches next please!! Thank you !! 🤤
Thank you!! I’ll add it to the list!
Thanks, CJ, for your content.
Thank you!
YES This is was cuirious for !! you following the recipe hehe
Thanks!!
Thanks cj I plan to make your ribs tomorrow on my ninja xl grill
Right on!
Nice comparison to showcase your new rub👍😊
Yes ma’am!
Thanks for sharing. Can you smoke chicken wings
Yes you can. I’ve done a couple videos on two to do it.
CJ I made the jerky in the back of the Ninja woodfire book, I would love to see your take on jerky! Would you do a comparison video of that ? Thanks 😊
I did do a jerky video, but probably won't do a comparison with the book.
Fantastic comparison CJ! Obviously a clear decision 😂 yours is packed with flavor ! Cheers to you and the Baker 👩🍳 🍻
Thanks brother!
A good comparison. Nice looking ribs. Cheers, C.J! 👍👍✌️
Thanks brother! Cheers
I'd like to see you improove the Jerky recipe and the Salmon recipe too
I’ll see what I can do
Looks delicious I just purchased a ninja wood fire grill this is very helpful I still have in the box lol I want to learn how to smoke my ribs and fish
Thank you!
I hope to catch a great deal on the Woodfire this coming Black Friday. I have a question. Do you add more pellets throught the cooking process? My family loves a great smoky flavor and critize all the BBQ local restaurants for lack of smoky flavor. How was your smoke flavor? A pronounced smoky flavor or barely a smoky flavor?
The smoke flavor is there, with just one cup full. It’s a condensed space, so the smoke is heavy duty.
Great video, definitely going to try these! Have you added pellets after one hour and reignited those? Or just let the smoker function going even after the first batch of pellets finished burning( usually it takes around 45 mins/1hr for my pellets before needing to add more). Thanks in advance!
Thank you! I have plans to purchase one soon.
Awesome!
Great comparison video cj. I gotta try that shake
Thanks brother!
Thanks for the video! One thing though, it was very obvious from your comments and reaction to the ribs which ones were your recipe! I’m sure she picked up on it…
Great video brotha! Ribs look amazing!! Super dope meetin you at joes house the other day too!
Hey thanks brother. Cheers
There are rocket scientists and there is the Woodfire scientist, Prof. CJ!
😂😂😂
CJ….can you publish your recipe for country style ribs?
I’ll work on it. Thanks
Nice comparison CJ. Would have been pretty awkward if she said the Ninja ribs were better, but funny at the same time...LOL Nice cook!
😂😂right?!
C.J. you're great and we love your videos! Keep them coming! I have a question though. Besides cleaning the pellet box now and then where do the ashes from them go? Is there something a person needs to do to remove them after a lot of cooks? I know on my GMG I take it apart from time to time and vacuum it out. Thanks for your knowledge.
Hey thanks! The ashes fall through the bottom of the hopper. But I usually just pull out the hopper and dump any extras.
I tried your way and did not like the ribs at all. Same to me. It had no smoke flavor.
Cool
Cant beat the wrap n the sauce technique
Thanks!
Love your videos they’ve been super helpful with the xl I recently purchased. Did you do a 2nd round of smoke on your version? I don’t think so but was curious if you could confirm. Thanks!
Thank you! Usually just one round.
I didn't bother with the Ninja recipes. I only trust my thermometers when using a new appliance. Weird thing is, first thing I did on my grill was self-made vegan patties for burgers. Took me three days to figure out I should probably go to the Turkish butcher next door and buy a couple of Adana kebaps and tavuk sis. We live in dangerous times, my friends.
Thank you!!!
I watched your other videos, STILL haven't tried mine yet, but bought your recipe book because everywhere I look, the accompanying booklet is lacking. Can't wait to see the result!
Hope you like it!
I want you to try the crown version of baby back ribs
I cooked St. Louis ribs yesterday using you recipe in you cook book. I also watched this video. I noticed on the video you put the ribs on bake @ 350 however your book does not have that step. Does it matter? I used your video method and they were wonderful.
I changed it up on the book to just keep it on the smoker setting the whole way. There are a few different ways I do my ribs over the years with the WFG.
@@CookingWithCJ Thanks. I will go with the lower temp next time.
Hey bro, should I buy a real grill or will this be good enough?
It's better than a "real" grill your just jealous of the real man's grill
@@VlogsOfAnything what. 😂
@@loitersquadX it's just as dumb of a response as your question
Just depends on your needs. This is a great little grill.
hey can you do a poor mans burnt ends or some bologna? also would be cool to see some side dishes or maybe desserts. ive been using your recipes for my pork belly burnt ends and turkey both of which have been awesome!
I’ll add it to the list! Thanks!
I thought you need to get to 300F for the meat to separate from the bone?
Not at all, low and slow works too.
You asked for suggestions - I would like to do a really smokey salmon.
I did do grilled salmon. I’m not a fan of salmon, so I don’t cook it often.
CJ can you do video on how to clean the Ninjia grill?
I think you found it! Lol
My Man! Great channel sir! I watched the video where you used the Ninja rib rack, and didnt wrap. Whats your thoughts on taste, did you like the wrap method taste over the rack method? Both look amazing!
I think I like the wrap method better, but no wrap is a lot easier, less work for sure.
Can you do a smoked whole fish? Salmon, red snapper, or tilapia
Not me, I’m not a fan of fish, lol! But you could do it, I’ve seen it done on social medias.
I wonder how hot the outside bottom of the Ninja Smoker gets. I have a balcony where I have a workmate table. I am not sure if I would need a heat mat on the bench or not.
Doesn’t get hot enough to mess with your table.
I already threw my ninja recipe book away 😂
😂😂😂
😂 Hilarious
Smoked Pit Beef sandwhich, please. I would like to see how you would do it vs Ninja. BTW...I always use your rib recipe...the best ever😋
Thank you!!
Well this is a bit of comparison of apples and oranges. CJ ribs were absolutely swimming in BBQ sauce. If I was using the ninja recipe I would use some barbecue sauce especially toward the end. So I'm not convinced the extra fooling around is always worth it. If I don't have the time I'm not going to do that. But interesting as always thanks for your video
Thanks for watching
CJ, I just got my Ninja smoker and cant wait to try it out. Following your recipes and cant wait. Lets see some solid texas style Brisket recipes.
PS. Im in Chicago so have some solid competition when it comes to good food.
Just dropped a brisket video today!
Great scientific test❤
Where’s the link to the cool knife?

CJ great videos!! How many times did you have to fill the pellets in this video?
Thanks! I think just the 1 time if I remember right.
New subscriber here!
CJ, if you’re still taking recipe suggestions / ideas how about smoked blackened salmon on the ninja wood fire? 😁
Hey thanks for jumping on! I did a grilled blackened salmon using the Woodfire smoke. It’s on the channel. I’m not a huge fan of salmon though.
Love your channel, man!
You have to sauce both for fair test
Ninja doesn’t sauce their ribs in their recipe
Awesome job CJ, did my first roast on our new Woodfiregrill, we did a whole smoked BBQ chicken, the instructions were confusing, we added the meat then set it going using the smoker setting, should we have waited for the ignition to end?
yes
Can’t wait to try this recipe.. How many times did you refill pellets while cooking?
Didn't refil it. Only one cup of pellets for the cook.
When u say up pull them at 165 is this Fahrenheit or Celsius?? From uk so apologies😂
Yes it’s Fahrenheit. No worries. In my older videos I didn’t put Celsius, I didn’t realize it was going to be so popular in the Uk. My newer videos and in all my cookbooks, I share temps in both C and F.
@@CookingWithCJ you have inspired me to get a ninja so it arrives tomorrow.. cannot wait thanks so much for your vids.. your a credit to the USA 🙏
@@marclatham7850 thank you! Really appreciate it. Cheers
@@CookingWithCJ cj what’s better to use to wrap? Foil or butchers wrap??
Hey CJ. First, love your videos and made your rib recipe on my new Woodfire. They were as good as any ribs that I have ever made. In this video, you kept your temperature at 250 degrees throughout , I'm assuming because the Ninja's version are cooked at 250. With your recipe, do you like this your cooking version better on this video or your first video where you wrapped and then baked at 350 degrees to finish before tightening up? Thanks for all of your hard work. 👍
I think my recipe is better in this video. Didn’t need to be 350.
@@CookingWithCJ thanks CJ for the quick response. I made your first recipe and they were great. I’ll try your new version out this weekend. Looking forward to them. 👍👍👍
CJ do you really need to get the pro version or the regular one . the only difference I can tell is the pro comes with the built-in thermometer. I have my own digital thermometer like you used in this video.
Nah I don’t think so.
Looking fantastic my man CJ! Wooo. That's a big 👍 up! Delish bro!
Thanks brother!
So how much wood chips are needed for this cook i was told to check every 45 mins on pellets
One cup would be enough
As a denture wearing bbq ribs loving person need Recipe for fall apart ribs
Just cook them longer and until the hit 215-220 internal.
the book looks burned !! oh my
Good info, CJ. My Ninja Woodfire has been ordered. Ribs may be my first cook. My family prefers that the meat easily pull from the bones. Would an hour longer period in the foil accomplish that?
Thank you!! And yeah a bit longer will losen up the ribs for ya.
Looks like you left your ribs on the smoke setting after the wrap. I thought you usually use the bake, not smoke setting…
Didn’t hurt anything to keep it on the smoke setting. Got the same heat.
Nice sleeves sir
Thanks!
Great videos Do you add more pellets throughout the cook
Thanks! I don’t really do it that often. I find that one cups worth is enough.
Made these last night CJ’s way. Of course. Everyone said they were the best ribs they’d ever had. Hey what kind of pellets are you using in this?
Hey thanks! I think they’re pit boss pellets.
Nice looking ribs... for a video idea, how about smoking a pork belly to make bacon. I'm currently using my GMG Trek to smoke my port bellies, do you think I would get the same flavor on the Ninja?
I wonder… I’ll try to work on it. Thanks!
Are you still using ninja woodfire pellets?
Just found out it has a cold smoke function.
Need to try that with some cheese
@@CookingWithCJ Gouda for sure.
How about chicken thighs, with that crunchy skin. Your recipes are the Bomb!
I’ll add it to the list. Thanks!!

@CookingWithCJ ordered thanks alot was your videos that made me buy this
Can you double stack in this grill? I just bought this grill and was wanting to cook more ribs
It would be pretty tight in there
Can you do ribs in the woodfire where you are able to pull out the ribs due to tenderness?
Yes just cook them longer.
@@CookingWithCJ Thank you CJ, could you make a video and share a recipe with the most tender londer cooked ribs?
What you're saying if you change the recipe a little bit you could have got the same result
Far from it. But thanks for watching.
Have you tried a Spatchcocked Chicken yet?
Yep just did the video last Sunday I think.
I think the PayPal link to purchase your ecook book is broke. PayPal won't let me order i it😢
Try this link it too my website. Thank you!
www.cookingwithcj.com/shop/cook-books/ninja-woodfire-grill/
are those st Louis ribs?
Yessir!
Boom CJ. Do you think the left side might be a bit hotter then right? but once again great cook
Meh maybe. I also had both plugged into the same outlet. Popped my breaker a couple times. Learned a lesson on that one.
Aren't you using spare ribs against the Ninja book's recipe for baby back?
I didn’t notice. Did the pellets last the whole cook? As far as recipes go. It was no contest. You recommendation in your original video is spot. Throw the booklet away.
Hey thanks! The pellets last anywhere from 45 min to an hour. You can reload and reset for more smoke though.
I didn't see where to get your taste testers at?? You said we can order anything you use in your videos...jk. I got my own...lol. great video and I did the chicken breast last night and was awesome.. I'm gonna have to get me a XL... how much more food does the xl cook compared to the OG?
Hey thanks! It’s about $150 more for the XL
@@CookingWithCJ I was asking how much more cooking surface doe the XL have?
Do a Corn beef
I love grilling and smoking on my ninja I made bratts ribs and a roast last night all turned out great
Awesome!
I don't know, B kinda looked better. Of course it didn't LOL nice comparison! 😜🔥🍻
😂🤣😂
CJ, do you brine the ribs first?
No I don’t
@CookingWithCJ thank you! I'm making them right now 'your way'
This was an unfair comparison. Ninja's recipe is designed for a complete novice to get decent (not fantastic) smoked ribs. Yours should have been only dry rub, and foil for a truer comparison. Any time you are adding moisture, you will get a better rib. A great comparison, anyway. I'm sure everyone knew which ribs were going to win, just from the extra love yours got.
Brisket cj please
Wouaw j'adore cet appareil ❤
Merci
