Recipe Directions
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to make the dry rub.
- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Rub the dry rub mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the ribs in the air fryer basket, bone side down, and cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the ribs are tender and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- If desired, brush the ribs with your favorite barbecue sauce during the last 5 minutes of cooking for added flavor.
- Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
