Air Fryer Country Style Ribs

One of my kid’s favorite dinners thus far, Air Fryer Country Style Ribs, and this recipe is the perfect way to prepare them.  There is nothing like a great BBQ rib flavor, and in the middle of a snowstorm, you can skip the grill, and these can grill up perfectly with your own Air Fryer.

If you have never made ribs in the air fryer, and are looking for a foolproof recipe for Air Fryer Babyback BBQ Ribs, try my recipe here. It’s truly amazing, and ever since I started using my air fryer 4 years ago, I make them at least weekly.

This recipe can not be any easier. Today, I used a couple of bottles of my family’s favorite BBQ sauce, and a couple of packages of Country Style Ribs, and of course my trusty air fryer, and that’s all you need–simple and delicious.

I served these on top of a great big bowl of salad and it’s so healthy and amazing. I love healthy meals in the air fryer. If you do not want to serve this over salad, it is great with some of my great air fryer side dishes, such as Air Fryer Sweet Potato French Fries or even an Air Fryer Baked Potato.
