1/2 cup Brown sugar
2 tbsp Smoked paprika
1 tbsp Garlic powder
1 tbsp Onion powder
1 tbsp Kosher salt
Instructions
Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs to ensure maximum tenderness.
Pat the ribs completely dry with paper towels to help the rub adhere.
Mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a small bowl.
Rub the seasoning mixture over all sides of the beef ribs thoroughly.
Place the seasoned ribs into the slow cooker basin in a single layer.
Pour one cup of the barbecue sauce over the ribs, coating them evenly.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
Brush the remaining cup of sauce over the ribs during the final 30 minutes of cooking.
