As I stood in my kitchen, the warmth of nostalgia wrapped around me like a well-loved blanket. Memories of my grandmother's laughter mingled with the sweet scent of her famous pies, but today, I was on a culinary adventure to bring a new twist to tradition. Inspired by her comforting recipes, I decided to whip up some Air Fryer dry rub ribs that would elevate our family gatherings to new heights.

With a medley of spices—smoky paprika, fragrant garlic powder, and a hint of brown sugar—I carefully crafted the rub, imagining her approving nod. The ribs, glistening with the promise of flavour, were slathered with the mixture, the spices clinging eagerly to the tender meat. Once nestled in the air fryer, the anticipation grew as the machine worked its magic, transforming the raw ingredients into a crispy, succulent dish that would surely become a new favourite.

As the ribs cooked, I could almost hear Grandma’s voice echoing through the years, urging me to explore and innovate while keeping the essence of family close to my heart. I prepared to serve them alongside a slice of her beloved pie—traditional and timeless—creating a delightful fusion of flavours that would make even her spirit proud.
