Air fryer baby back ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender in little time! I use a flavorful dry rub and BBQ sauce for the best flavor!

ingredients :

3 pound rack of pork baby back ribs
3 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup BBQ sauce plus more as desired

instructions :

Peel the silverskin from the back of the ribs then cut the rack into 2-3 sections that fit into the air fryer basket.

Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees F.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, salt, brown sugar, chili powder, and pepper. Season both sides of the ribs with the bbq spice rub, covering both sides well.

Place the rib sections in the air fryer basket, meat side down, and air fry for about 15 to 27 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.

Open the basket and brush the ribs with BBQ sauce — as much or little as you want. Close the air fryer and cook them for another 5 minutes.

Remove the ribs from the air fryer and allow them to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving, with additional BBQ sauce if desired.

Enjoy 🤤😋
