NOTES

Store Leftover Ribs

  • Any leftover ribs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The ribs will stay fresh for 3-4 days.
  • Be sure to wait until your ribs have cooled down to room temperature before putting them in the fridge.

Reheat Ribs In The Air Fryer

  • The air fryer is the perfect way to reheat ribs! Simply place your leftover ribs in the air fryer basket.
  • Air fry at 350 degrees F for 5-18 minutes, flipping halfway through, and cook until they are warmed all the way through.
  • You can also brush a bit of sauce onto the ribs before reheating if you'd like them extra saucy.
