Prep 15 min · Cook 4 hr

Preheat your smoker to 225°F using applewood or hickory chips for optimal flavor.
In a small bowl, whisk together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and dry mustard.
Pat the raw pork ribs dry with paper towels and apply the spice rub generously to all sides, pressing it into the meat.
Place the ribs directly on the smoker grate and cook for 3 hours, keeping the lid closed to maintain a consistent temperature.
Remove the ribs and wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper, then return to the smoker for 45 minutes to ensure they become tender.
Unwrap the ribs, brush the top side with the sugar-free BBQ sauce, and smoke for a final 15 minutes to let the glaze set and caramelize slightly.
While the ribs finish, combine the shredded cabbage, Greek yogurt, and apple cider vinegar in a bowl to create a creamy, tangy slaw.
Remove the ribs from the smoker and let them rest for 10 minutes before slicing between the bones and serving with the slaw.
