Air Fryer Baby Back Ribs: Fall-Off-The-Bone Goodness in No Time!

Remove the silver membrane from the back of the ribs by slipping a knife under it and pulling it off. This helps ensure the ribs are tender.
Cut the ribs into 3-4 rib sections to fit into the air fryer basket.
2. Season the Ribs:
In a bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Rub the ribs with olive oil, then sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs. Press the seasoning in to make sure it sticks.
3. Cook in the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Place the rib sections in the air fryer basket, meaty side down, ensuring they don’t overlap.
Cook for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
4. Add the BBQ Glaze:
After 25 minutes, brush a generous layer of barbecue sauce over the ribs.
Increase the air fryer temperature to 400°F (200°C) and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the sauce caramelizes and becomes sticky.
5. Rest and Serve:
Let the ribs rest for 5 minutes before serving to keep them juicy.
Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
