If you have not already shucked your ears of corn, go ahead and do so now. Trim the ends off the corn and cut the entire cob in half widthwise. Then, cut each half into quarters. Be very careful and use a very sharp knife to complete this task. It's tricky work cutting through the cob!
Set the quartered pieces of corn aside and preheat your Air Fryer by setting it to 375F for 3 minutes, or according to your manufacturers instructions.
Add the oil to a small bowl, and add in the seasonings. Stir well to combine.
Use a silicone or BBQ brush to brush the oil and seasoning mixture on the kernel side of your corn ribs.
Add the seasoned corn ribs to the basket of your air fryer and cook at 375F for 11-14 minutes, or until crisp. Remove the basket at the halfway point and shake, OR if you have an oven style model, flip the corn ribs to ensure even cooking.
When the corn is crisp, remove them from the hot basket using tongs.
Brush on the BBQ sauce and return the corn to the air fryer. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce is "baked" on.
Serve immediately, brushing on additional BBQ sauce if desired.
